It came after another candidate, Amy Anzel<\/a>, encouraged him to be this week\u2019s project manager during the fish task, where they were required to catch and sell fish to high-end clients, and create a dish to be sold to the public.<\/p>\n Speaking to press including RadioTimes.com<\/a>, Short said that Amy \u201cjumped\u201d on the idea of him leading this week, even though it wasn\u2019t the \u201cbest\u201d task for him, and given he\u2019d just joined Infinity, he felt that someone else should have \u201cstepped up\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cObviously I came from the other team, the winning team on the previous week, and then to step into a new team that I\u2019d only worked with Akshay [Thakrar] previously, I didn\u2019t really know anyone\u2019s skillsets or how they worked,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cI think it would have been honourable for someone who was within that team to step up and be PM, but you\u2019re under time constraints and someone had to do it, so I\u2019m proud of myself in a sense of stepping up and putting myself up as PM and taking it on board, even though I probably would agree that it wasn\u2019t the best task for me.<\/p>\n \u201cThere could have been a better task further down the line. But again, it\u2019s just coming away with the positives on it.\u201d<\/p>\n Asked why Amy was so keen on him being the PM, even though he repeatedly told her that it wasn\u2019t his area of expertise, he added: \u201cObviously she jumped on the fact that she wanted me to be PM, but I suppose everyone has their ideas and how they want to go about things.\u201d<\/p> Short made several mistakes as the project manager \u2013 the biggest one being that he forgot to sell their catch of the day, crab, to the high-end client, which resulted in the group making much less profit than The Apprentice 2022 candidates<\/a> in the Diversity group.<\/p>\n He continued: \u201cI don\u2019t think anyone actually realises the intense pressure you\u2019re under, and I can\u2019t express that enough. I think that\u2019s why it is such a hard process.<\/p>\n \u201cIn real life, you\u2019d love to take a step back or sleep on a decision that\u2019s really important, especially within business, but in there you have to make that decision swiftly. So definitely a different perspective of what I thought it would be. But it just goes to show why it\u2019s such a difficult process to get through to the end.\u201d<\/p>\n New episodes of The Apprentice air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer on Thursdays at 9pm.
