I've just sent off my CV and you lot don't have a chance. I'm the chairman of ICI, the Virgin Group, Microsoft and the UN Secretary General. I should mention that Lee helped me fill in the form (or should I say "fil in the furm")

That's nothing, I've got 3 degrees and run my own multimillion pound business and I'm only 24.
I'm probably the best salesperson in Europe, don't know the meaning of the word opposite to winner, will give 250%
effort 28 hours a day and have never told a lie in my life.
I'm half Jewish,half Catholic, half Hindu, half Muslim and an expert in Maths.

I'm only 17 , that beats 24 so therefore if Alex can get to the final 4 then I can win!

Are spoken words also your tool by any chance?

I haven't been to university yet, but what the hell, I can lie about it and maybe I'll win.

Good luck to anyone who's applying!

Oh well, if you've got a twenty four hour hotline you're a dead cert.

You do seem quite young, though.

Were any of the finalists in this series that young when the programmes were made?

My OH said he'll be applying. If he gets through he'll show them how to sell! He's in the top 5 with the sale of Digital Hearing aids in the company he's currently working at.
