At the conclusion of the contest, Quepasa gathered the top 152 viral entries and conducted interviews with candidates to generate its top 10 finalists. On August 16, 2011 representatives from Quepasa will visit Mexico City and conduct final round interviews and award the grand prize employment contracts to two lucky finalists.
