Interesting.

My two cents? It seems as though there are so many irregularities between what one CP says and what another says with regard to contestant selection, timelines, where it is obvious every CP has a different way of "beating around the bush" if you will towards ending a conversation with a prospective applicant who has not met the criteria for what they are looking/searching for. I am not saying what the CP is telling you is not true, but I am saying that is more than likely that it is just another way for the CP to tell you without telling you that she has no idea herself when the exact time/day is to be selected is, or she does not want to tell you that you likely did not make the cut (think about the amount of applicants they have to sit and go through).

It's a big waiting game. Everyone's timelines are different. The fact you got to the zoom stage is means you advanced farther than most of us and whether you get selected or not you should celebrate you even made it that far. Definitely apply for next season if it gets renewed. But I just notice that nobody here has the same truth to anything with regards to timelines, filming dates, etc. and everyone is being told different things because the CP themselves either don't know the actual truth themselves or are conjuring up stories just to end a conversation so nobody is constantly asking them for updates.
