President-elect meets more job candidates and hosts TV anchors at Trump Tower

Donald Trump held court from his perch high above Manhattan on Monday, receiving a line of former rivals, long-time allies and TV executives while overseeing a presidential transition that at times resembles a reality show like the one he once hosted.

Mr Trump met with nearly a dozen prospective job candidates, all of whom who were paraded in front of the cameras set up in the Trump Tower lobby as they entered an lift to see the president-elect. Out of public view himself, he fell back on his TV star roots by filming a video that touted his legislative goals once he takes office.
