    Cast Members and Extra Magic Hours

    I used to go to EMH and just walk through the parks and shops. I never attempted to ride attractions. I'm not promising you this is allowed, just that I did it and never hid it and no one told me it wasn't allowed. It was a nice time to walk the parks when they weren't crowded and enjoy a snack...

    Should Disney College Program be presented to middle schoolers and high schoolers?

    I think it should be included in college fairs, info sessions. I had a highschool teacher that had done it and I was mesmerized. I disagree about being minions and it having nothing to do with your major. It's a life experience. It may not be literally connected to your major but the training...

    Disney College Program helped my daughter get a job.

    Practically every job I've gotten whether it was a minor job in retail or restaurants or a "real" job has cited my Disney experience as a huge factor in hiring me. Also a great interview subject to show off your personality. One boss was jokingly going around the room telling each of us why he...

    Snowglobe Repair?

    This is an old thread but came up when I was googling snow globe repair. I was wondering if anyone had any luck? Found several repair sites, looks like it'll be a costly affair. I have a nice size collection, some over 20 years old now. 3 need repair. One is a small Alice in Wonderland one where...

    Question about restricted/no rehire?

    I was originally rejected from the official alumni group and after a few back and forth emails giving more information they approved me. However I'm 99% sure I'm still a restricted rehire even though I finished my programs. But it sounds like the DCP considers you to have finished your program...

    Current policies about living offsite for DCP?

    Hm, I wonder if a W-2 would help. I obviously listed my job on the application but they never asked for any proof other than a letter on company letter head stating my hire date. One thing that's occured to me is that when I've done my applications I've always had a part time job along with my...

    Current policies about living offsite for DCP?

    They told me what I needed to do, just the regular form and having more than 6 months job stability. I also went through an extra interview. I received a letter denying my request to have my status lifted and that's where they didn't explain anything about why it wasn't lifted. I know it...

    Current policies about living offsite for DCP?

    I have and I'm about to call a manager and see what they recommend. I don't understand what my standing with the company is to be honest which is one of my problems and one reason I'm even considering the college program. I was never terminated. I finished both programs as scheduled. I didn't...

    Current policies about living offsite for DCP?

    I'm afraid you misunderstood my post, my plan would be to live off property but worst case scenario I don't think having one roommate would be an unlivable situation. I still look very young and I have no doubt I'd blend in with college kids just fine as far as that goes and the difference...

    Current policies about living offsite for DCP?

    I went to the website and it seems like they don't even do the 1 bedroom/2 people apartments anymore? I feel like I remember visiting a coworker in her 1 bedroom at Chatham? Did this have change in a remodel or something? If I lived onsite I'd want the least amount of roommates possible, it's...

    Current policies about living offsite for DCP?

    I did the DCP in 2005 and 2007. I really want to get back in with the company and I honestly think my best course of action is with the college program, I really didn't take advantage of the networking opportunities that were available and I can see that now looking at the friends I have who...

    Sophie's Choice

    Hmm, for one thing I would never dream of comparing the experience to a book and movie about the holocauste. Such bad taste.

    Am I doing something wrong (rehire paperwork)

    Well Disney seems to use termination as a catch all for leaving the company. But I think I'll call casting and ask if they can tell me more.

    Character Performer Auditions

    For offsite auditions (non CP) are they making their offers that day or calling you later? My last audition was in Orlando and it seemed like they were putting everyone who made it past the cuts in the pool, we were told they'd contact us within 6 months, I got a call about a week later offering...

    Am I doing something wrong (rehire paperwork)

    One problem I'm having is that I don't really know why I have restricted rehire status. I was never terminated, I finished my program. I'm guessing it's from attendance reprimands although I had attendance reprimands on my first CP and had no issues being hired for my second CP. I didn't have...

    Character Heights/CP Auditions

    They probably mentioned the 6 months time frame because not all the attendees were CP's. At the end of her program they'll host an audition for CP's looking to extend their program, if she extends she's eligible to switch roles.

    Anyone else miss the older shows Disney Channel had?

    That's pretty much when the Disney Channel became terrible. I don't think those were any better than what they have now. And they're far from the "older" shows. Was The Babysitter's Club series made by Disney or just shown on the Disney Channel? Same with Avonlea. I don't remember them being...

    Am I doing something wrong (rehire paperwork)

    Oh and to add, this is for regular employment, I'm not applying for a CP.

    Am I doing something wrong (rehire paperwork)

    I've had restricted rehire since finishing my last CP in 2007. I was never termed so I'm not sure why I was restricted to begin with. Since then I've gone through character performer auditions twice and been offered a role pending my rehire approval. I did the rehire paperwork and showed proof...

    Extending question

    Just a simple application. Then if is she gets the extension she'll most likely have to move apartments and get updated ID's. If she's interested and has a clean record card she can apply to change her role.
