TAR Canada 5 Pre-Race News and Speculation
georgiapeach:
Saw this today...so sounds like they are moving to the next level. This is someone who clearly had already made it thru prelims.

Out of curiosity GeorgiaPeach, where did you see this? I know the general applicants were told that decisions were already made. I didn't know those that got to subsequent rounds were notified. I am curious how the whole process takes place. I realize there is some need to be hush hush and I know that contestants are bound by lengthy fine print legal clauses about leaking details but I am just trying to understand the process in case I am ever fortunate enough to make it past simply auditioning.
I only ask because it seems odd that people would be finding out now with interviews seemingly still going on as we speak. Was this someone from Western Canada or Newfoundland?
stunami:
I'm also interested to know Peach!
georgiapeach:
Here are some ways the US Interviews go.
Apply online>>never contacted
Apply>>get a phone call expressing interest> phone "interview">>would be told thanks but no.
Ditto >>some have gotten a visit from low level casting
If they really like you get invited to semi-finals, you would of course be notified if you were to advance or not.
Some rare people went straight to finals.
So Being notified could be after a phone interview even.
And no sorry, not ID'ing the source.

I do know of one team (let's just say a friend of a friend) who thought they were "in" for sure. They even went on SM saying they would be off the grid for a while. They went to Toronto and were cut last minute. I often think TPTB like to call in a few extras just to look at the cast all together - size them all up and analyze potential interaction. Or maybe they do that just in case another team pulls out last minute.
