Apprentice opportunity

March 24th, 2006 by Dave

I’ve been out of the office for two days, so of course my inbox is filled with all sorts of campus announcements including, for some reason, a blatant advertising for the DaVinci Code. And then there’s this:

Could the next “Apprentice” also be a Rebel?

Find out… when NBC brings the search for Donald Trump’s next “Apprentice” to the UNLV campus!

Now casting for a sixth season, “The Apprentice” is a reality-based program pitting executives and entrepreneurs in competition through a series of business-related tasks. The ultimate victor in this competitive “job interview” wins the opportunity to work on a high-profile project for Donald Trump.

A special casting session, offered exclusively to UNLV students, alumni, faculty and staff will be held on Friday April 7, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., in room 201 of the Stan Fulton Building on campus.

“Open” casting calls for the series have attracted thousands of prospective candidates in cities across the nation. This special UNLV-only session will be a unique opportunity to meet with casting directors from “The Apprentice” on a one-on-one basis.

Casting directors are interested in smart, successful contestants from all professions with strong personalities and the will to succeed in cutthroat competition.

Interviews will be conducted on a first-come, first-served basis. Those interested should download an application form at www.nbc.com. Please note that you must be over 21 to participate. Audition tapes are not required for in-person interviews.

For more information, please visit www.nbc.com.

If you are curious, check out the application form for yourself.

Go for it. I know that there’s got to be some UNLV-affiliated people who read this and are “successful in business.”
