Just thought I would bump this up again for Fall 08 CPs!

What kind of questions should you expect for Character Performer or Hospitality? (My top two)

Hi Disney Chick-

I just had my interview and here are all of the questions I got (nothing for Hospitality so I can't help you there).

First we did a recap of the questions from the application.
Why do I want to do the CP at this point in my life?
Why do I want to work for Disney?
How would I interact with guests - good guest service?
What would I look for in a CP applicant?
Describe a situation where I've had to work with a difficult person, boss or professor.
How open am I to people from diverse backgrounds?
Being married, how do I feel about the living component?

Then we talked about the roles I checked off and my reasoning for selecting each of the roles.

Attractions-
What would you do if a 4 year old girl wanted to ride space mountain but she was too short?
In terms of a spiel ride (I said I was interested in GMR)- talk about a situation in which I have talked in front of a large group of people.

Character Performer-
How would I act as a character performer?
Talk about my experience with entertainment/theatre.
What would I do if a child was scared of me?

Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique Hostess-
Do I have salon experience?
(My answer was "no," so we stopped there - I will not be getting this role )

The number one question that you HAVE TO NAIL.........

Why should you be in the CP program. ​

Berlioz70 Thanks so much! I'm so excited. My interview is tomorrow at 10:20 am! Last time I did a face to face interview, so a phone one is going to be so different for me!

Good luck!

Thanks! I think I'll need it. I don't like phone interviews. It's much easier to see them and see what they are writing down and how they respond.

I know what you mean. I'm not a big fan of talking on phones.

I just finished my interview. She told me that my status will be pending and invited me to the audition on the phone! For me she said it was April 3rd (Orlando). I'm so excited!

She said with my theater skills and how I answered the questions, I have a pretty awesome shot! I'm SO EXCITED!!!

 

[Joanna71985]

That's great. Good luck!

Thanks! It stinks that I have over a month though

Thanks! It stinks that I have over a month though

I know that feeling. When I auditioned in 2006, I had about a month and a half til my audition (I applied in early Feb, and my audition was March 30th).

 

[Berlioz70]

To be honest - this is driving me nuts! Some recruiters seem to know when audition dates are and spreading the word and others aren't. I have a very very busy April and really need to audition before that month, but this wait is killing me. One location is within an hour, the next is 5 hours, then the next is 8 hours + ----- ARGH!!!!

I'm going to be really upset if I can't make the audition close to me - if I knew the date now I might be able to work around it. Not knowing the dates is really hurting my chances of even being able to attend ANY!!!

I just needed to vent - thanks!

That does really stink.

That does really stink.

Thanks for the hug - I needed that!

Thanks for the hug - I needed that!

You're welcome. I know all about wanting to plan. I wish I could plan out my summer, but I can't do anything til I hear back from Disney.
