Thursday 18 Feb 2010-02-18

Today myself, Hanolet and Mondli all headed out to Sharpeville to interview the last guys there for the March intake, yesterday I said that we had 30+ people to speak to, I was wrong.

We interviewed 50 potential entrepreneurs from the Sharpeville area. Phew. Everyone from hairdressers to shoe makers, the interviewing itself is a slow process as we have to get as much personal and business information as possible while keeping it short and sweet and also answering any and all questions that they may have. Never the less, it took us the best part of six hours to finally complete the process,

it’s now just a matter of combing through the interviews and selecting the ‘best of the best’ for the mentorship programme. We where all pretty pleased with the amount of people who turned up and even happier once we had finished! It is an exhausting activity! But personally I think today provided us with some of the most promising business people to date!
