One of the stars of the latest series of The Apprentice has landed a role at Microsoft.
Emma Street made it to week eight of the hit BBC show before being fired by Lord Sugar.
Street, who dropped out of university at 19 after securing a prestigious apprenticeship at tech consultancy Capgemini, has started a new job as customer success account manager at Microsoft.
Sharing the news on LinkedIn she said: “It’s been a fantastic start already — from an engaging onboarding day in Paddington to a warm welcome at the Reading HQ where I had the chance to meet even more of the team.
“I’m really looking forward to working with our customers, helping them unlock value, and being part of such an inspiring organisation.
“Grateful for the opportunity and excited for what’s ahead!”
In other news, her fellow candidate Keir Shave has predicted his telemarketing company Parallel Partnerships will be at 80 staff by Q2.
The Leeds-based startup, which specialises in lead generation, has already recruited seven new starters this year.
