Mike is the best interviewer by far. He users evidence to back his arguments instead of just mindless roasting insults

Just because he puts stuff on the table? Sounds like I could lure you off a cliff with car keys. Claude looks primarily at the financials, in an interview with Yasmina in 2009, he pulled out her business accounts, showed her up for not knowing how much profit she actually made. Jordan in 2013 was caught out for not being a shareholder in the business he said he owned. He was caught out for fraud. He got an interrogation, not an interview. And when he isn't looking at financials, he's reading between the lines on their CV and calling them out for the puffery they come up with. Stuart Baggs called himself a brand. If someone is a brand, you don't go work for someone else. He praised Solomon's CV then proceeded to call his business plan a disgrace. He was annoyed that someone gave him such hope, only to be let down by the business plan. That's because he had 2 pages with pictures. He came at Claude with a PNG and then almost walked out the window. With Stephanie, he was blunt and to the point, but he was right in what he said. Then showed that she came off as reckless with money. Linda Plant seems to be Mikes replacement in the area of testing the product or services they produce. That's just seeing how they respond when their claims don't match reality. If someone claims 4-5 days in delivery for example, their response should be I'll look into that and might have to consider either correcting that in the future or switching courier. Not look like they've been caught in a bold face lie. Then there is the actual goal of the interviews. Taking the final 5 arrogant candidates and giving them a dressing down. Because if they're going to work for or work with Alan Sugar, they're going to have to deal with people like this on a regular basis, and they're going to need to show that they can take it and fire back with facts. So if they can't handle being roasted, they don't deserve to be there.

This guy is always the best when he asks a question then says "that's not how I found it when I used your service" or "I own that website, and this one and this one" 😂 he's very good at giving them business lessons without being too nasty about it

Sadly in this day and age that would be enough to work, i mean shit people spend millions on twitch to see a 18 year old dress as a hooker.

Personally I think Mike it the best interviewer on The Apprentice. He goes to good lengths to check out each business and puts his point across in a way you can respect it. Some of his comments are also pretty funny.

I don't know how anyone can argue that Mike isn't the best interviewer he doesn't go for cheap insults, he presents questions in the form of creative scenarios and problems to make candidates think on their feet or get rightfully caught out and it's fresh each time. The other interviewers just do the usual grilling on numbers and credibility of the business plan which is repetitive.

Mike’s use of props is the best lol

"It's fun, it's unique, it's beautiful". It's a plastic cup full of Swizzels Matlow sweets that you can get in any supermarket or sweets shop.

I really like Mike, I think I would learn a lot if he interviews me. He is polite and gently points out where you are going wrong in a convincing way, which makes you want to rectify your faults. Excellent

“Don’t you think that is going to make you overstretched” “No.” Me: 😂😂😂

He does his due diligence that’s for sure, however behind it all is actual structured criticism and help. He points out flaws that are worth working on

"I like the taste." She says with a face that is completely unable to hold the lie

"So it's the bow" 🤣

‘Most of those companies are good’ 🤣

how could you not include when he buys all the website addresses of kathryn’s business 😂

The interviews episode is always great because so many egos get torn to shreds

In my opinion, Mike is definetiley the best interviewer. He is like a snake. He looks at the numbers, and uses actual facts to "humiliate" the candidates, and teach them lessons without being very harsh

At least Mike points out the actual problems with the businesses whereas Linda and Karen seem to just try and be as nasty as possible for no reason.

0:27..quite the most insane look on anyone ever.

I can't remember what candidate it was (I think it was Jordan?, but he put in his CV of doing a rubik's cube within a certain time, and Mike gave him a rubik's cube to prove himself - too funny and legendary moment 😅

The bow on the top makes the difference 😂😂😂😂

Hes very thorough. And he calls out the BS in what they say. Making them look very silly

I think the bow adds value to it Entrepreneur of the year

At least they ask real questions. I always hated interviews, particularly prevalent back when I was starting my career, where the interviewer would ask inane, stupid questions. 'Would you prefer to be a duck or a pencil case?' or some nonsense.

Lady in the thumbnail really reminds me of that girl from Educating Yorkshire who says, "d'ya like my eyebrows? Shaved them off, shaved them all off haven't I?" With a bit of Katie Waissell thrown in lol

At least he's not one of those interviewers who screams and shouts for no good reason.

It’s the “Are you sure about that?” nature of his questions followed by him just saying how rubbish the candidates are are what makes him elite 😂

Can you describe what's on the table in front of you 03:05 "I think it's fantastic.." Literally not what was asked.

That was a nice bow though tbf

At this point, I've seen too many varieties of Pick'n'mix businesses in my lifetime that there doesn't seem to be any point in making anymore of them 😂 it's hard to make something look unique with prepackaged sweets when there's already so many businesses that pack them up themselves. At most, variety boxes of handmade treats instead of ready made stuff could be a more unique approach and something worth investing in if it's well thought out.

They'd get more respect from him if they were honest and open about being wrong, and for the late order at least apologised, offered to chase it up, look into speeding up the process and throwing in something extra as an apology They're all stuck in defensive mode that they blatantly refuse to agree with the criticism, and he's there to help!

Just finished with this year’s interviews, saw there was an article on how this years contestants were being “bullied” ??! I mean, this is business, there is no space for your emotions, most of them don’t even know how to fill in a business plan properly, the contests imo are getting worse as each series goes by.
