It is often believed that it is a hunky dory world out there when it comes to working for the top tech brands like Apple, Google, Intel and Adobe etc. Little do they know that their own employers - the top bosses who they revere like demi-gods - may be prohibiting their next career moves.

Here is a bevy of leaked email exchange between top CEOs of above-mentioned companies, warning them to stay off each other's employees until few years ago,
===================================================================================================================================================

[i]In 2006, Google was recruiting for its upcoming mobile division - which later developed Android - and the company's recruiter chanced upon Apple engineers. Here goes the email exchange between Apple co-founder Steve Jobs and Google boss Eric Schmidt.

Eric,

I am told that Googles new cell phone software group is relentlessly recruiting in our iPod group. If this is indeed one, can you put a stop to it?

Thanks,

Steve

Schmidt replied:

I'm sorry to hear this; we have a policy of no recruiting of Apple employees. I will investigate immediately!

===================================================================================================================================================

When Apple's former CEO Steve Jobs in 2007 came across an email from a Google recruiter pursuing one of his engineers, he asked Google CEO Eric Schmidt:

Eric,

I would be very pleased if your recruiting department would stop doing this.

Thanks,

Steve

Schmidt sought an explanation to his team, saying:

I believe we have a policy of no recruiting from Apple and this is a direct inbound request. Can you get this stopped and let me know why this is happening?

Arnnon Geshuri, (now the vice president of human resources at Tesla Motors), replied:

On this specific case, the sourcer who contacted this Apple employee should not have and will be terminated within the hour. We are scrubbing the sourcer's record to ensure she did not contact anyone else.

I wanted to let you all know that Bruce, Theresa and I discussed the issue of recruiting wih Apple. We don't want the gloves off -[/color]

[color=#000000]e don't want Steve personally recruiting our key talent. We've agreed we will not solicit any talent[/color][/size][/font][/color]

Ed Colligan, the CEO of mobile manufacturing company Palm, received an email from Steve Jobs, asking him to stop recruiting Apple engineers. His email is below:

Ed,

This is not satisfactory to Apple.

It is not just a matter of our employees deciding they want to join Palm. They are being actively recruited using knowledge supplied by Jon Rubenstein and Fred Anderson, with Jon personally participating in the recruiting process. We must do whatever we can to stop this. I'm sure you realise the asymmetry in the financial resources of our respective companies when you say: "We will both just end up paying a lot of lawyers a lot of money."

Steve

enee James, an HR personnel with Intel, wrote to CEO Paul Otellini:

Paul,

I am losing so many people to Google.

They are selectively going after my people in Moscow, China and Santa Clara. The turnover in Moscow is almost 20%... and, the belief is damage is done in Russia - meaning they have what they want already.

Renee

In response, Otellini emailed then-Google CEO Eric Schmidt, saying:

Eric, can you help here??? Renee runs all my s/w efforts.. she is not an alarmist.. Paul

Addressing Otellini's concerns, Schmidt sought an explanation from Lazslo Bock (currently the senior vice president of people operations at Google), asking...

I was under the impression we were not hiring from Intel. Is this not true? What are the facts? Thanks, Eric

Bock, in response, wrote to his subordinates - Arnnon Geshuri (now the vice president of human resources at Tesla Motors) and Prasad Setty (now the vice president, people operations - analytics, communications and compensation at Google):

We do not actively recruit from Intel, though we do accept inbound applications. Arnnon will run the due diligence and report back to you on the facts. If we find a recruiter called into Intel, we will terminate the recruiter. We take these relationships exceptionally seriously.

Arnnon responded with the following explanation:

To help shed some light on Renee's concerns, the Google staffing team in Russia has seen an uptick this past year in the number of Intel employees submitting their resumes directly to us through Google Jobs and employee referrals. Over the last 9 months, there have been 7 Russian technical folks hired from Intel (4 from google Jobs/3 from employee referrals) with an additional 6 candidates in some stage of evaluation process as of today. Looking at the interview data, I would expect two of the 6 Russian candidates to result in an offer in early October which will most likely add tension to this situation.
===================================================================================================================================================

Paul Otellini wrote a mail to Gabrielle Thompson (whose last position at Intel was director, global staffing operations), talking about a handshake agreement with Google over an anti-poaching policy.

Let me clarify. We have nothing signed. We have a handshake "no recruit" between Eric and myself. I would not like this to be broadly known. Paul


============================================================================================================================

Pixar was recruiting an Apple personnel and sought permission from Steve Jobs, who once held a majority stake in the animation studio. Here goes the email exchange:

Steve,

An Apple employee has applied for the job of project coordinator, which is basically an administrative assistant to our project managers. Since she's a support person instead of an engineer, I'm hoping this won't be a problem. Would it be OK for us to make her an offer?

Rob

In reply, Jobs simply mailed:

Yea, it's fine. The key is to stay away from the engineers.

==========================================================================================================

We cannot recruit (including calling up, emailing or enticing in any way) current Pixar employees to work for Intel. If a Pixar employee applies to Intel without being recruited by Intel, contact Pat Gelsinger and explain to him a Pixar employee has applied to Intel without being recruited and he will contact the CEO of Pixar for approval to hire.[/i]
