Exclusive: Facebook Grabs Microsoft Global Ad Head Carolyn Everson

Apparently, it's not only in Google's pond where Facebook fishes for talent--the social networking giant has recruited Microsoft's global advertising head Carolyn Everson as one of its top sales execs.

A Facebook spokesperson confirmed the hiring, after a query by BoomTown.

The move will surely cause some tensions with the software giant, which is both a prominent partner of and investor in Facebook, especially since Everson was only hired at Microsoft last June after a long search.
