'Apprentice' Runner-Up Got Trumped by Own Experience

Wall Street Journal: (subscription required)

One of the biggest lessons Kwame Jackson learned in his three years as a stockbroker at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. helped get him fired by "The Donald."

Mr. Jackson, 30 years old, came in second out of more than 200,000 contestants vying to be hired by Donald Trump on the hit reality-TV show "The Apprentice." In the show's final episode, Mr. Trump said he passed over Mr. Jackson largely because of his laid-back style. Mr. Trump selected a more rah-rah manager to be his apprentice.

Mr. Jackson, who left Goldman to appear on the show, says the elite Wall Street investment bank taught him: "You can do things quietly, humbly, and still be successful." He adds: "I didn't have anything to prove to anybody. ... In the end it was up to Trump."

Kwame debates his next move after his run for the spot as Trump's apprentice.
