Week 17 - John Lewis Factor

John Lewis Factor
This week we had special guest Terry Saunders, Community Liaison Coordinator at John Lewis, coming in to let our candidates know which four people had made it through the interviews to do a work placement.

Please don't tell Simon Cowell... we can't afford to get sued

We had envisaged it being like the last stage of boot camp on X Factor: Split them into two groups (one successful, one not), bring one group into the room, line them up (pause for dramatic effect) and tell them they've all made it through to the work placements (queue the screaming and hugging).

Instead, we've opted for the last stage of the judges houses. Terry will be taking them to the lounge room couches to give them feedback on their interviews before letting them know whether they are through.

Terry stayed true to the X Factor tradition of leading the successful ones on to believe they hadn't made it through, before giving them the good news. All unsuccessful candidates were given feedback on how improve and give a stronger interview in future.

Anhar enjoyed plagiarising The Matrix in telling candidates that what was said was said for them alone.
