    Hi Nath
    That sucks that you didnt get in- but definitely reapply- I got rejected the first time just on the basis of my cv. I reapplied, got a phone interview, got a face-to-face interview and then got a job! :D So it is definitely possible- and I know loads of people who have got through on there 2nd and 3rd attempts! Shows determination and enthusiasm for the programme!
    I would definitely push any customer related experience you have, however basic- working in a shop, bar, whatever! If you don't have any, if remotely possible I would suggest you get some, even if its just like a week! Otherwise- play on any experience you have had- working as a team, relating to the public, any hobbies?  And tell them that you would bring lots of this to the job as a cast member.
    Basically you need to show them that you can talk to people about anything and everything!
    Hope this helps a little!
    Good luck- hope to see you out there! ;D

    yer defently reapply because as you can see for the other posts, many of the
    people on here got turnned down 1st time. i have been turned down twice but am still determined to do the programme (just have to wait a while now)

    but i'd defently recomend getting as much customer service as you can, while at uni i'm gonna try and do USA summer camps as well as going to canada to work later on in the year.


    DONT GIVE UP AND YOU'LL GET THERE SOON ENOUGH

    GOOD LUCK
