If you check the CSS file you got information thanks to the name of the classes : mistakes essay_topic word_count datePicker /* weekday is Gmail blue when selected */ candidate_action personal_information pi_directions review_desc choose_exam |

the "restricted access" page is 404, but the server is still online as these images are still viewable.

it is an internal google adwords certifification. I do remember when I passed my Google Adwords Online exam for Google adwords professionals certification, we had two choices one was for external people and another one mentioned on thomson learning where it was an exam for internal Google certification. |

BTW, I've also noticed that they've also put the "wf" service (AKA Google Workplace) live, although it's just called "New Service" at the moment.

BTW, some other things to note regarding GOA:
If you're not logged in to your Google Accounts, support.google.com/goaexam redirects to:
www.google.com/accounts/Login? ...
When you are logged in, it shows a 404. And to view the images in NateDawg's comment blogoscoped.com/forum/78682.ht ... you have to be logged in.
The server running the "goaexam" directory is shown in the HTTP headers as:
Server: goaexam/-1

Google has already built their own internal HR and applicant tracking systems, including interview and evaluation forms. It is only logical that these will eventually be offered to outside users. It looks like this is a simple interface to one component designed to be part of an "HR for Enterprise/Apps" user base. |

It's worth mentioning that in the anime series The Candidate for Goddess, the academy is called GOA and the placement exams to be admitted called 'GOA Exams'. Coincidence? |
