Taking viewers right into the heart of one of Britain’s last ‘secret spaces’ – the interview room. It’s simple and authentic: just real candidates battling it out against each other in pursuit of real jobs, filmed in microscopic detail to capture every nuance.
Part of Planet Leasing’s success is due to loyal staff and supporting their local economy. Planet Leasing have embraced the apprenticeship programme and trained staff from as young as school leavers. Over 50% of their current staff started on the apprenticeship scheme and everyone lives within 2-3 miles of the workplace. This formula has driven award-winning success and continues to be at the heart of directors Darren and Gary’s philosophy.
The episode first airs at 9pm on Tuesday 26th July on Channel 4 and will also be available on catch-up channel 4seven and on the Channel 4 website.
