I think I'm going to put Merch as my second preference. What are the pros and cons of this role? I'm a cashier at shop rite...so should that give me a little heads up on what it is going to be like? Even though disney merch is probably 100x more intense than a grocery store haha
I noticed they have added some video overviews of some of the positions on the cp site. Merchandise is one of them.
I didn't do merch, but I did work in QSR. That overview is pretty good for that role. I'd guess that the merchandise one is good too.

I have my phone interview tomorrow and Merchandising is my first choice, how likely is someone to get their first choice? And about how many spots are available in Merch?
What are the best stores/parks to request for Merch?
Not to bring anyone down, but I think it's important to realize Merchandise is more than just working in a store on Main Street.
I wanted merch most of all and didn't get it, but I got a private message from someone who tried to make me feel better by telling me her daughter's role was merchandise, but she ended up stacking and cleaning wheelchairs. So, I guess wheelchair/stroller rental is considered merchandise. I would never have even thought of that, so I think it's a role with a wider spectrum than people think.

This is just kind of a random questions but is it better to working in one BIG store all the time or a bunch of smaller stores? I read in this post someone worked all of the back of DHS and someone else all of Dinoland and i think that would be awesome i dont really want to work in a big store is there anything i can about this or no?? I really want to be changing alot i feel like working in one big store would get boring.
