In its quest for world domination, Google is looking for talent (read: employees) at a highly-unlikely place: a hackers conference.

CNet’s Tech News blog reports about Google looking for talent at CanSecWest, a conference concentrating on applied digital security.

Google was also present at Shmoocon last month. Shmoocon is “an annual East coast hacker convention hell-bent on offering three days of an interesting atmosphere for demonstrating technology exploitation, inventive software and hardware solutions, and open discussions of critical infosec issues.”

Google looking for haxors?

PS: I am using Trend Micro’s Trend Protect, and it seems that the SchmooCon Web site is marked as unsafe.
