I clearly locked in on the title. Ironically, the creation of an alumni relations program is even more rare as I'm not aware of any companies having formal relations with either of my alumni relations offices at this time. Apologies to all. Thanks for pointing out my mistake. Colin/Barry,

You are both correct. I clearly locked in on the title.

Ironically, the creation of an alumni relations program is even more rare as I’m not aware of any companies having formal relations with either of my alumni relations offices at this time.

Apologies to all. Thanks for pointing out my mistake.

So that Google can find new talent within the alumni organizations at these universities and find new talent. And I quote: "The Google University Programs team is looking for a Programs Manager to build relationships with alumni organizations and university alumni offices. This individual will drive the strategy for engaging with alumni organizations, develop a program of activities and events for alumni and promote Google opportunities to graduates of our target universities. The Programs Manager will work closely with other people programs teams, recruiters and internal Google alumni groups." Am I missing something here? Doesn't seem to be about keeping those ex-Googler's all united... Correct me if I am wrong, but it appears that this job is to touch base with alumni programs at universities.

It is for coordinating with university alumni organizations, not with Google alumni. I read the job description. It is for coordinating with university alumni organizations, not with Google alumni.
