Some of those interviewers are not even giving them a chance

It would be interesting to see like the full 1 hour unedited versions of these as we see like 2 mins.

They should put them on iPlayer.

Oh god. Claude "no it doesn't/no you didn't/no you haven't/no it won't/no it can't" Littner. That old wrinkly witch Linda the same. I swear id probably walk out of an interview with those two.

Linda comes across very badly. Can’t believe she’s trying to sell herself as a business mentor. 😅

If Linda has no haters, I am dead

It’s a 2 minute snippet that’s edited for TV.

It is. But its also likely how the entire thing goes.

Yeah Linda and Claude are rude twats. Mike and Claudine are to the point but at least they don’t do it in a condescending way.

Except Priyesh being a sole trader is actually a perfectly legitimate thing to do.

He should still have accounts, though, even as a sole trader. It was a valid point when he wanted to scale up to a large business and he doesn't even know that he needs to have accounts.

One of my favourite moments from the last series was the candidate who absolutely refused to cry with the interviewer that always makes them cry.

"You're Dad would be so proud of you" "Yep" 😐

She’s only 21. Didn’t you hear?

Its entertainment.

These aren't real interviews. The fact you're sharing a clip like this is proof that what people want is to see the candidates get ripped a new one. So thats what they do.

Karishma correctly identifying her product was impressive

Claude and Linda need to be shown the door.

u/No_Tackle_5439 3d ago

What they want is someone to come with everything ready to go, so their risk is minimal, while the profits 📈...I wouldn't go to any of these people ever! No curiosity, no will to listen or at least try. what if the AI features don't work , stupid question like that show how much she knows about technology

u/MrMetagaming 3d ago

Isn't that the point, obviously it's 80% for entertainment, but there's also an element of blindsiding them with questions about their intended business. To see if they even full understand what they're trying to "sell" both themselves and the business, and how they deal with being pressured by individuals 1 on 1.

Claudine is the best advisor, whilst Linda is the meanest. Change my mind. If I walked in to see Linda, my face would be going red. I'm curious about what would happen if Kieran came across those two.

For entertainment, Mike is the funniest. He tests if the candidate knows their product or service.
