Do the Disney Dining reps work from home??

[Donna]

This was my thought exactly. Sure...Disney benefits would be great...but having a job out of the comforts of my own home couldn't be beat. But, in a way, Disney would be giving me a benefit because the money I would earn working for them would go to pay for our yearly trips to Disney . So Disney would be paying ME to visit the Mouse .

True, and you'd probably never have to worry about getting the ADRs you wanted, lol.

I'm definately going to check into this!!! I just got all my hours cut at my part time job at one of our local bookstores, so I am really interested in it!!!

its kinda weird that people say yes this can be done but no one can get info on this? Is this a big secret? Where do the people call if they are really wanting to do this?

as a call center CM could you book your own ADRs??!!!

wouldn't that be a perk!!!!

Yes, but they don't have any more access than you do. So basically, if they want character dining next week and it's booked, they don't have any pull.

Their only advantage is being able to check for multiple dates and such a bit faster, but that's it.

but sometimes when you want a dinner at le cel, those extra seconds do count!!!

This is GREAT info, however, they are NOT hiring anyone in NYC/NJ area? Anyone know others?

I work from home for a very large company doing programming. When I have to call clients I make sure the cat, dog and kids are quiet and I would NEVER have a tv volume on.

I also work from home supporting a high-end accounting package. Unfortunately, with 12 dogs, you can pretty much guarantee that someone will find something to bark at each and every time I'm on the phone. I do a lot of support out of our bathroom, with the door closed...

it is my understanding that some do work from home... i believe one of the companies that hires for disney dining is Arise (www.arise.com i think)... i agree it could be a dream job!

check out the website i posted back on page one of this thread... it's really not a secret if you know where to look!

I know the DDP rep. I got for my last trip worked from home, she told me " excuse me and then screamed Bobby take it to your room " hopefully she wasn't talking to her supervisor.

I didn't find anything on disneycareers.com! Not sure where to find info.

gigi1313, I looked at that website, but it doesn't say anything about working at home with disney.....

Wow, this would be incredible! I'm a Realtor and this would be a great 2nd job!

as a pp said, they will not mention disney directly, they keep their client's identity confidential... they do say, however that they will match you with the corporate client that best suits you (not a direct quote)...

I just applied as well...we'll see what happens!

I guess I will try to apply and see what happens. I'm not quite sure what I am applying for though since they do other companies besides disney. I wonder how likely it would be to get to work with disney.

This is my concern regarding arise.com . I looked at the website and found examples of client partnerships and although they don't specifically name Disney (which I do understand that they don't do that), the description given for one of the examples describes it as such. I guess I'm curious as to whether or not one can find out if Disney is an option (after the application process) or if jobs are just randomly assigned with no choice given to the applicant ?
