The BBC official Apprentice site has their page up for Jennifer Maguire, the Irish contestant.

Jennifer was born and brought up in Dublin. Rejecting university life in favour of instant earning, she hopped on a plane to New York where she waited tables in a restaurant. After a year in advertising sales back home, she ran her own successful advertising business in Brussels before taking up her current role, working within the fashion industry. Jennifer comes from a very large feisty family and isn’t afraid to have her voice heard. She sees herself as outspoken, funny and open-minded but has vowed to win The Apprentice by keeping her enemies close by her side. Apparently she can make the shape of a shamrock with her tongue….

Starts on BBC1 tonight at 9pm. Go Jenny.

I’m a little embarrassed to admit it, but I have a soft spot for The Apprentice. Good news then that it looks like we’ve another Irish person to hope for, though if she’s as good as should-have-won-it Kristina Grimes I’ll be amazed.

Jennifer Maguire, a marketing consultant who currently lives in Bristol, describes herself as an “iron fist in a velvet glove” and says: “I am a success totally.”

Of her sales skills she says: “I can sell pieces of paper for £50. I rate myself as the best salesperson in Europe.”

See this was the thing with Kristina, shit hot at everything she was, yet she had a way of not coming off as arrogant. She just came off as an absolute legend.
