Features: The sixth season of the U.S. hit TV show The Apprentice (also known as Apprentice) began its global recruitment drive. I still remember the frenzy last year when over 3 million people worldwide applied for the fifth season, with thousands of stylish men and women abandoning their corporate sophistication to camp outside registration points like NBC and Trump Tower in New York’s winter chill for three days straight, creating a spectacle. As an impartial judge on the show, Carolyn participated in every episode and thus became known to billions of viewers. With her beautiful appearance, icy demeanor, sharp wit, and ruthless evaluations of contestants, she was dubbed “Donald Trump’s ‘Ice Woman’.” Carolyn has become a role model for young managers worldwide. However, she candidly expressed her disappointment in the professional ethics of some female contestants who attempted to win the favor of the “playboy boss” Trump through beauty and sexuality. In this book, Carolyn meticulously records her journey of rapid growth into the Chief Operating Officer of a Fortune 500 company, combining the insights gained from The Apprentice to reveal the secrets of career success. She presents a comprehensive view of a manager’s career, from job hunting and promotions to growth and fame. Carolyn will share her success experiences on the following topics:
