Google Employee Background

[cscott]

I understand that many of Google's employees would be under the title of "Software Engineer" and probably did exactly that at university, but I'm interested in knowing the background of those who didn't get a degree in a field directly related to computer science (assuming there is some). Is there any way I could get this information?

Well, I found this (http://www.google.ca/jobs/meet.html), but I hardly consider computer engineering or mathematics a far cry from google's "standard" :p

Found this post randomly on Google. :smile: I can tell you that I do have a friend working for Google and he has no degree in computer science. I think he had to take a test, before… I know my answer comes after a year, but hope’s not to late!
