A six-figure salary from Donald Trump didn't keep Bill Rancic, winner of the first season of "The Apprentice," from landing a job — temporarily — at Home Depot Inc. and Wendy's International Inc. in northern Virginia.

On Tuesday, Rancic helped customers in the paint department at the Home Depot store in Alexandria and worked the front counter and drive-thru window at Wendy's in Merrifield. It was for a promotion for SnagAJob.com, a recruiting company for hourly jobs.

"Although I'm no longer an hourly worker, I was," said Rancic, who now oversees construction of a Trump building project in Chicago.
