Tonight at 8.30pm on BBC One sees Dale Williams (right), a director at Cardiff-based Yolk Recruitment, appear in the third and final instalment of the semi-finals of TV cooking contest MasterChef.
After the previous two episodes, available via BBC iPlayer, Williams is left with all to play for. He describes to Recruiter that Wednesday’s episode saw the four contestants cook in a Michelin-Starred restaurant for the first time, which he says was “massively daunting… but it was wicked”.
Last night (Thursday) saw Williams get rather emotional – a tear or two being shed. “Nothing can prepare you for the intensity of the process,” he says.
Which is more testing on the nerves, Recruiter asks him, MasterChef or recruitment? Without hesitation, he replies the former. He says: “It’s like being new in recruitment and in your first couple of weeks having to do a multinational chief executive placement… you’re thrown in at the deep end.”
But the key to both, he suggests, is the same: multi-tasking, and being able to “make sure you put the right things in the right places”. The recipe for a tasty placement!
