The BBC Apprentice series returns to our screens this year, kicking off on March 21th.
Meet Ricky Martin from Hampshire, one of this year’s Apprentice candidates who will compete for the £250,000 investment fund from Lord Sugar and to become Lord Sugar’s business partner.

Name: Ricky Martin

Age: 26
Occupation: Recruitment Team Leader
Lives: Hampshire.

By day Ricky is a successful recruitment manager operating across the UK science industries, and by night and weekend a heavy hitting professional wrestler.

Ricky, who has an Honours degree in Biochemistry, spends his spare time competing at wrestling events and is also an amateur body builder, training five to six times a week.

Ricky recently got engaged to his girlfriend, and says his greatest strength is his people skills and that his weakness is that he is a perfectionist.

Ricky wishes he was the brains behind Facebook and once played tennis against Tim Henman at Wimbledon.

He says: “I truly am the reflection of perfection.”
