Seriously wtf is this doing on the front page of reddit?

The resumes are nice and all, but they're more similar to the standard MS Word template than I was expecting.

Google currently has around 99,000 employees. Let's assume they have an attrition rate of around 10% and a growth rate of around 5%.

That means that they're going to need to replace around 9,900 employees, and their growth rate indicates they'll hire an additional 4,950. In total, they'll probably hire ~14,850 employees in the upcoming year. Let's say that it takes 9 interview candidates for Google to find the right person, so to hire 14,850 employees, they'll need to interview 54,450 applicants.

This comes out to 1,089 interviews per week (54,450 / 50), assuming no interviews during the last two weeks of the year.
