you know, this got me thinking about future applications. FI's take on making a video to find a designer is brilliant. I'm even wondering if they'd want their applicants to create a short video of themselves as submission. Yay? Nay? i

wow what a fun guy, he is just so cool and what a great video he's just such good fun and casual and I simply loved how he just went on awkwardly eating an apple as he babbled way incessantly for 15 minutes, he would be just great to work for, imagine it – another great FI Monday morning and David your fun boss would just rock on over to your desk eating all kinds of fruit and babbling away with his mouth full and he'd be cracking that hilarious joke about designers being ugly 4 or 5 times before telling you about how he won at golf over the weekend thanks to a technicality and made a table out of 4H fucking pencils he shaved with a razorblade after plucking his wife's eyebrows into perfect arcs that adhere flawlessly to the fucking golden section.
Could anyone even be hungry with that much cocaine in their system?

If you ever meet a designer -- spit him in the face
Because creatures who are more heinous of all low-life animals , have not been inventedApple-eating, cocksucking shiteaters, everywhere you meet them , kill them

"I think...I think yeah .... I mean I think, the best way to approach... like to find a designer...weve been thinking is actually to show the examples that we do...and like... without just like... I don't know like writing stuff... like we would just show our work"

Seriously. Do you really need a fucking video to explain this? Oooooh aaaaaaah you have a pool table! You make beveled buttons! Oooooooooh! Offices in BOTH stockholm and uh, some other city (see I dont care). Really... who is "passionate" about making buttons and stupid details? I'm not. Fuck this I'm going outside.

I forgot that he was recruiting during his rant until the very end when he wished good luck in applying.

so typically a vid like this will be slashed on here. you guys are cartoons of yourselves and all that while youre just jealous that theres a company out there which is still hiring people and while YOU are just stuck up with a boss which is worse than this half self confident creative officer. reality check please gentlemen. please unfuck yourselves and be welcome to the real world
- *this* is your real world?!?kelpie
- yeah, really jealous about a company that makes the worlds cleanest beveled buttons.********
- Design is all about making buttons like they do at appleattentionspan

2a probably has the same hiring procedures. make shit that looks exactly like the 2a brand. boring crap.

Seemed to be a bit of tension between that guy and the business director who wasn't allowed to design.

I don´t get the hating either. Sure he looks like a tool, the video is way too long, endless drivel, crude integration of the studio environment, but that´s hardly something to be offendend by?
They should hire somebody who knows how to produce web-video, that´s all.
- The hating is to feel like justice has been served. People get smacked for being tools all the time. FI's owner should be no different.********

this is the same company that wanted you to design them icons and 'swooshes' as part of the application process, is it not?

its sort of annoying at first but different and there's some interesting insights....i thought it was going to be a parody video or joke or something
