Filipinos will also be given a chance to apply for a job live on the show via “1Ted: Now Hiring,” where two ‘applicandidates’ will go face-to-face each day for a job opportunity. After three rounds, the employer decides which one of them is the winner and will go home with the cash prize.

In each episode, two members per family will join the live show, and one family gets to move on to the jackpot round with a chance to win P1 million.
