On Sept. 14, Google has confirmed that it will cut hundreds of jobs in its global recruitment department as part of its layoffs in the coming quarters.

"Unfortunately, we need to significantly reduce the size of the recruitment team," Brian Ong, Google vice president of recruitment at Tuyuan Pexels, told employees at a video conference on Wednesday.

"it's not an easy decision and none of us want to talk about it this year," he added. overall, this is the right thing to do, given the hiring base for the next few quarters. "

Wang Blaine said the laid-off employees will receive emails from Wednesday.

In January, Alphabet, Google's parent company, announced 12000 job cuts, or about 6 per cent of its full-time workforce. The layoffs involve all parts of the company, including Google's recruitment team. Google has been cutting costs since last year, and Alphabet reported a 7% increase in second-quarter revenue, better than analysts had expected.

Employees affected by the latest layoffs will retain access to the office this week and to the company's systems for longer, Wang said. Employees had previously criticized the company for abruptly cutting ties with people who lost their jobs in January.

Google spokesman Kurt Nemonsini (Courtenay Mencini) confirmed the layoffs in an email.

"We will continue to invest in top engineering and technical talent while deliberately slowing down the overall pace of recruitment," he wrote. in line with this, the number of job requests received by our recruiters has declined. in order to continue our important work and ensure that we operate efficiently, we have made a difficult decision to reduce the size of our recruitment team.
