The casting call will consist of group interview. The show's casting website states the show tries to see everyone who shows up to the call; if not, representatives will follow up with potential contestants.
Potential contestants should bring a nonreturnable recent photo of themselves and a pen to the casting call. There's no dress requirement; the website simply states, "Wear something that best represents you and that is comfortable as you will be waiting in line."
