We Do Group Snowflake Challenge ❄️

Video

Today we’re putting the team to the ultimate test: the Snowflake Challenge. Armed with nothing but a paper napkin, questionable instructions, and a ticking clock, the results were… well, interesting.

  • The task: Create a perfect six-sided snowflake in under a minute.
  • The tools: Napkins, scissors, and sheer determination (or desperation).
  • The results: Let’s just say some of us should stick to recruitment, not creative arts.

From missed steps to “that’s why I’ll lose a finger,” it was chaotic, competitive, and full of festive laughs. Who nailed the brief, and who ended up with something that barely resembled a snowflake? Watch the full video to find out!
