A recruitment Managing Consultant Annabelle Moggridge at Modis International Limited, picked the winner and runner-up contenders of the hit TV show ëThe Apprenticeí to win the 1Job.co.uk and CornishFarmHolidays.co.uk ëThe Apprentice – Predict The Winner Competition 2009í.
Annabelle predicted Yasmina Siadatan was the best candidate to win, she also accurately predicted second and third place contestants as well. Her predictions were made after week 4 of the show, where the contestants had to produce, package and sell natural body care products. It was also where the team Yasmina was in made a huge mistake over the costings of their products. Yasmina went on to successfully defend herself in the boardroom against the team leader, HR Consultant Paula Jones, who was then fired by Sir Alan Sugar.
Annabelle said, ìWhen you are working in recruitment you get a keen eye for strong candidates. I could see Yasmina had raw instinct for business, and the drive and ability to go with it. I was also impressed with her career so far - owning her own restaurant [The Mya Lacarte in Caversham, Reading] at the age of 27. She showed herself as passionate and professional, and having highly innovative business ideas culminating in her Cocoa Electric chocolates concept that I loved in the final showî.
Yasmina took the 100,000 a year job and works under Sir Alanís eldest son Simon Sugar at Amscreen, a company that specialises in selling advertising space based around screens, using wireless technology, provided to hospitals, supermarkets, garages etc.
The competition was organised and run by 1Job.co.uk, the UKís no.1 job search engine, and CornishFarmHolidays.co.uk the premier site for farm holiday accommodation in Cornwall.
