from internal referrals is significant---49% of new hires at deloitte and 45% at accounting firm, ernst & young.---both higher than in 2010. "there's all sorts of red flags that come up." bob bruno says there can be a downside. "you could end up eliminating diversity. i'm not talking about gender or race but diversity of ideas. that's terrible for the employer." it's especially hard now for the nearly 4.8 million americans who've been out of work six months or longer....three times as many as in 2007. for them, anita jenke suggests letting your contacts know which companies may receive your application. "here's are some of the target companies, i've got. if you know of someone there, please let me know. and if i can do anything, i'm happy to 'pay- it-forward." "we can't all have someone on the inside for us. so don't be afraid to be different and point out how you bring 'value' to the firm that you're applying to." more reason for closer scrutiny----a study for the federal reserve bank of new york found employees recommending candidates of the same race, ethnicity, more than 70 percent

ernst and young, lehman's accounting firm, was sued by new york state for aiding and abetting a fraud. and matthew lee, the senior account who blew the whistle at lehman, is still looking for work, unconvinced that much has changed in the world of finance. >> you know, the entrepreneurs of wall street are continually getting more and more sophisticated. and they don't necessarily want regulators or auditors to fully understand what they're doing. >> do you believe the balance sheets of big wall street firms if you read them now? >> these numbers are so big and the financial instruments are so complex that, you know, nobody stands a chance, really, of understanding. i'd have more fun investing in crap tables in las vegas than wall street firms. >> well, that's our edition of 60 minutes on cnbc. i'm bob simon. thank you for joining us.

two members of the board of directors, the ceos of at&t and ernst and young have publicly said this he they think this policy should change, and during the last presidential campaign both barack obama and mitt romney also called for a change of policy. >> the times, they are achanging. pete williams, thank you very much. look forward to more of your reporting on this important development. today, a major breakthrough on immigration reform. leading senators from both political parties to agree on a path to citizenship combined first with stronger border security. joining me now for our daily fix, chris calizza, managing editor of post politics.com, chuck todd, nbc news chief white house correspondent, political and host of the daily rundown, and telemundo jose diaz ballard. first, chuck todd at the white house. the president is going to las vegas tomorrow and is making a speech and jay carney has just said that his policy prescription, they don't have specific legislation yet conforms with what the senate negotiating committee. this is an important development. >> that's the news right

joining us right now is daniel ernst, principle at hudson square research.id about things. what's your reaction to the numbers last night, and the guidance? >> you know, let's take kind of a step back. yesterday, apple reported operating or cash from operations grew $23 billion. yet after market the stock's down $50 billion. so they added more cash, or you know, it just -- expectations relatio reality, i think, are a little bit out of whack. and certainly is a valuation. but it's still a great company. people still line up for their products. iphone sales up almost 30% year over year. ipad sales up 48% year over year. so you know, the company is still growing. but i think the problem is, outside of expectations is the reality is, apple is slowing. they're still growing but not the same rate that they had been before. so we have this company that investors and the market got used to a hypergrowth apple. last year, apple grew revenues 45% year over year, and earnings grew 60%. this year, if we're right, revenues will grow at 23% and earnings just 11%. so it's

joining us now is julie carlisle, head of retail at ernst & young. julie, welcome. >> thank you. >> what is icaew? >> the institution of charles and finish for charles and wales. >> welcome. can you tell us about the burberry numbers? revenue was impressive, but more importantly, there are fingers about triple wa we saw. is this a most important point for retailers? >> like for like, there's a real problem for kpi and retailers. and something that we just brought out in our report, the like-for-like sales aren't always comparable because there isn't a consistent method of calculating them. >> what are some of the flaws? >> what is included in like-for-like sales could not be distant. almost, the time periods are used. solo they're important as a relative measure in terms of ease of comparability, it's not always there. >> are there any figures you can give which will create confusion? >> i think the most important example to give in today's market is that the like-for-like sales measures aren't always an understand occasions of reliable profit blth.

joining us is daniel ernst, principal at hudson square research.had a lot of concerns about google. what do you -- how's google looking to you, where the shares are this morning? >> there was one positive number in the results that i think is causing the stock to be up. the prices declined less. a story of less bad. they had a 6% decline year over year in the cost -- the price that they charge per click versus a 15% decline in the prior quarter. you sort of have a second derivative positive in things getting less bad on pricing. but overall, take out all the noise, core google growth has slowed. and that's my big issue with google. paid clicks grew 24% year over year. last quarter it was 33. the year-ago quarter, it was 34. so the core business of people using google, searching for things, clicking on ads is actually slowing. >> is this just the law of big numbers, though? >> well, i mean, google is doing $50 billion a quarter in revenue and is kind of hitting this sort of inflection point, slowing growth. apple hit that same inflection point at $1
