Linda McQuaid directs and is also the series producer. Piranha Bar are on board again this year to post the show, and the DP is Joe Edwards. Production manager of the series is Sheila Meaney.
There is a change to the format this year whereby the show will be followed by a live studio-audience panel discussion hosted by Brendan O’Connor. O’Connor will be joined by two celebrity guests and the main show’s latest fired candidate.
Last year’s winner was Brenda Shanahan who won a 12 month contract with Cullen's company, Renault Ireland.
