Last week the news world was a buzz with many newspaper articles reporting that Google would allow prospective employers to see your browsing history<\/a> through \u2018Google Hire\u2019<\/strong>, its new recruitment tool, built on the lines of LinkedIn. Google Hire is said to let employers place job ads and manage applications through the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was also suggested that the search giant\u2019s latest project would link your search history and YouTube account with your job applications, which could be accessed by prospective employers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

News denying the initial reports came out quickly, with Google representatives<\/a> saying that \u201cGoogle does not share private information such as search or viewing history. Only the information that applicants input into Google Hire will be shared \u2013 for example, first name, last name, email address, resume, cover letter, etc\u201d.<\/span>
