The day started with a normal tube journey to work, but the rush hour was not going to get me down, as I was so excited! I was going to see the best new talent that we have in our company, a chance to get up close and personal with the best creative brains within Saks!
We had an exciting start to the new season of the A Team, double the amount of applicants from last year, you could feel the tension in the room!
We started the day with a run down for the year ahead, and then straight into some creative hairdressing, with all the hairdressers pushing there creative juices, and creating some great results on the blank canvas training head. Next up was the individual evaluation, a chance for me to get to know the applicants further, and to learn more about what makes them tick creatively.
Then the all important one on one interview, this is always such a hard decision for me, as I would love to take on everyone, but we only have 15 places. Anyone who didn't get through musn't be disheartened, I really hope to see them again next year. The successful candidates were told immediately, and then off they went to celebrate!
So a massive congratulations to the NEW A TEAM 09...
