Google Code Jam 2005 Winners Announced

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the will-code-for-food dept.

Ember writes "The results of Google Code Jam are in. The winner is Marek Cygan from Warsaw University. Second prize goes to Erik-Jan Krijgsman from University of twente (Holland) and third to Pyotr Mitritchew from Moscow State University." Registration for the event took place back in July and Google reported a total of 14,500 registrants which is almost twice as many as last year, making for some stiff competition.

    .... was this a contest or a recruitment tool? After all, you get 14,500 people to submit code in a structured contest and you could likely find a few dozen new Google employees in the bunch.
