By Reality TV World staff, 03/17/2004

With its previously announced mail-in application deadline now past, NBC has announced that the network and Mark Burnett Productions are coming to a city near you to recruit candidates for the upcoming second season of The Apprentice.

The nation-wide tour launches tomorrow, March 18 at The Trump Building in New York City, where Donald Trump himself along with his boardroom colleagues George Ross and Carolyn Kepcher will be on hand to interview prospective candidates. Sixteen new contestants will be recruited for the competition which will film in and around Manhattan with all new challenges, twists and surprises. The Apprentice 2, once again starring The Donald, is expected to air in Fall 2004.

Prospective applicants should be able to take risks, bounce back after failing, succeed in a cutthroat environment, go against the tide, remain focused, think creatively and be a leader.
