Creative Profile Application

Put yourself out there.

We would love to meet you ◡̈

We don't want to be a resume dumping ground. Our approach is going to be more like an interview.

Your portfolio and resume are great and all, but they don't show what you want to do next, how you can use some help, and ways you want to work other people.

When someone reads your profile, we want it to feel like they just grabbed a cortado with you and totally get it.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Q
How do you get accepted?
A
When we finish reading your profile, we want to feel like we've just had a 30 minute coffee with you. You want to funnel the right people your way, so spend the time to tell us who you are. Our most clicked Creative Profiles are open, honest, serious, fun, and thoughtful. We want to get as many eyeballs on you as possible!
Q
What happens when I get accepted?
A
If your Creative Profile is accepted, we'll publish it and email you the link. Take the time to answer the questions on a separate document before submitting them, since it will be public once we publish it. You will be able to revise your answers as things change, but the first draft you submit will be published.
Q
So, how long is this application?
A
We think about an hour, but some of these questions are deep. And you probably haven't had the time to think about all this stuff. When do you give yourself the time to sit back and think about who you are, how you got there, where you want to go, and who you want to meet? Give yourself some ME time and put it out into the world.
Q
OK, but how long do the answers need to be?
A
What we've seen is that people who get work based on their profile tend to write just the right amount. I know, "right" — what a loaded word. If you're unsure, ask us and we'll let you know if your answers are too short/long.
Q
Will I be featured in the newsletter?
A
Our newsletter prioritizes paid ads. If we have room, we often add a few Creative Profiles, but it's not something we can promise. The real benefit is all the people who are actively looking and poking around the site. We're a real site, with real views (100k per month in 2020). We're in it for the long haul.
Q
What if I need to make revisions?
A
The first application is the most important. So please, take the time to get it ready to be published. We totally understand that things change, and we encourage you to email us if you need to make updates or changes.
Q
Has anyone been rejected?
A
We've been really lucky, but no! Perhaps it helps that we have a very targeted vibe going on here or that there's an application fee. If we think something could be clarified with your profile, hakuna matata (it means "no worries"). Our Community Managers will reach out to you.
Q
It's been a long time and I would like to completely update my profile!
A
Yes! And, AWESOME! Just reapply for another Creative Profile, pay the application fee again, and we can remove your old one once the new one is created.
