OUGD502 - Creative Report [SB1] - Google Creative Lab 5

I came across an interesting application for the Google Creative Lab which is a paid internship spanning over a year, working for Google. You could be a designer, coder, writer, filmmaker or even a wildcard, anything is accepted. However, they have a very interesting application that pushes creativity to the limits. For instance, here is the first stage of the application:



Instead of the conventional process of recieving a bunch of cover letters and CVs and choosing between them, Google instead give you their homepage, and just ask you to do something cool with it.


You then have to submit a form to them for the rest of your work. I think this is a really interesting way of seeing how creative people can be and it wades the original creatives out from the masses of creatives in todays' industry. I think this is one of the best application forms I have seen and I intend to apply for it in the near future.
