“Save me,” he quipped, blending humor with the reality of a cancellation that echoed 14 years of on-air emission history. Telecinco’s afternoon program closes its doors this Monday as a business consultant steps in to guide the presenters and contributors through a strategic resume update in preparation for life after the show.
“You know the ending is near, yet this moment can become a new beginning. I am Jesús Ripoll, a career consultant and team-motivation expert with 25 years of experience. For years, many within the team have stayed outside the labor market, their resumes outdated and their skill sets underutilized. The aim now is simple: equip them with practical steps for nailing job interviews, crafting compelling resumes, and fighting for themselves in a crowded job market. Along the way, I will share the keys that help other channels and programs recognize and value talent. Because this is life,” this seasoned professional told the entire team before moving forward with the show’s promotional drive.
As the news settled in, María Patiño spoke with conviction at the close of Sálvame: “This is not just another afternoon program. It’s a very special moment because the end is here, and it deserves acknowledgment and a proper farewell.”

“It’s important to note that the conversation about careers is rooted in the audience’s experience. The program’s final chapter will honor the contributions of every team member, ensuring their work history is seen as a collective achievement. The commitment remains to offer every participant not just gratitude, but tangible support and resources that can be translated into future opportunities.” Patiño added. “That sense of validation is essential. The last update on the journey was years ago because the team poured their energy into serving viewers and the audience, and that dedication matters,” Adela González followed.
Ripoll then began a sequence of one-on-one sessions with each collaborator, guiding them through the practical steps needed for this new phase, starting with Belén Esteban.
