Fall 2010 Professional Internships

[Angelgirl13202]

I interviewed for Alumni Only PIs in early/mid February and I haven't heard back from anyone at all either. So you're not alone. However I'm not so sure it's a good thing we haven't heard back from anyone. I'm still just crossing my fingers!

I don't know if its considard an Alumni only but my husband just accepted the Theme Park Operation Managment internship Monday. We are currently looking for a rental house as his mom and I are coming with him. We are both looking to apply for hourly roles at Disney. (I also am a cp alum) But graduated in December so couldn't apply unless I wanted to compete with him for the Animal program ones he applied for. We are looking forward to getting back to Central Florida and Disney!

I have applied for 5 of the communications/ communication graphics internships and haven't heard anything back from any of them since the screening interview.

The women I did the screening interview said that I would hear back by May 1st. My screening interview was March 5th...

Does that seem excessively long to anyone or is that time span sound typical?

The deadline just passed for the PI's to close. We should hear something soon if a second interview is needed. Some dont need second interviews and go off the screening interview. You could just randomly get a call wiht an offer. You will recieve an email if you werent selected so dont worry just yet.

Well that offers me a little more reassurance. The common notion for the time being is "no news is good news."

Thanks for the update.

Once again good luck to everyone!

It stinks to have to wait a long time, but the real "waiting" period technically didn't begin until the 26th, when they closed. No one was being contacted (to my knowledge) while those PI's were still open.

I'm on the same page as you, my screening was February 27th!

Do you usually get a call or email for acceptance? Rejection?

Standard "Dear John" rejection e-mail and a call for an offer. It looks like in most cases you also get an e-mail to schedule a second interview.

I got a call for acceptance and emails for the rejections.

Has anyone heard anything about the Information Technology internship? I applied right before they closed, but haven't heard from anyone yet.

Or guest relations?

I've heard a couple of people have gotten offers for the Finance/Accounting PI's but I'm still waiting to hear back.

I'm new to this board and was wondering if anyone else is still waiting for Fin/Acc.

 

[Invisible_ears_82389]

it seems like no one has heard anything on any alumni-onlys (including guest relations). People seem to be hearing mostly about 2nd interviews for non-alumni PIs.

When/how do we find out where we will be for the MI's? My leaders keep telling me I should know in the next few weeks, but I assumed I would not know until June 17th.

Does June 17th seem to be the date for check-in this year?

Catering Management Internship Offers anyone? Has anyone seen any offers for catering? I have seen all the other Management Internships getting offers, but catering?

My husband is still waiting for the IT internship. His screening interview was Feb. 24 and we are still waiting. They did tell him that the IT interns normally take longer to go through the applications than others. I am hopeing that no news is good news!!!

I applied for the pricing internship and have haven't heard anything yet but I have two degrees.. one in finance and one in management and I applied for both types of internships so hopefully they will call me back for one of those types. Its still really early so dont worry yet

That is the date they gave me for check in for Retail Management. Not sure about the others though.

 

[Angelgirl13202]

That is the date my husband got for Theme Park operations.

Which IT internship? I applied for one that I think was just called Information Technology, but when I talked to the screener, he said that one had been filled already and I'd only be considered for the other one I applied for. I'm not sure if it's the same one or not though. I hope you hear something soon!

I was told I'd know in a few weeks (offer was 4/22). I had a gap between my CP and my MI (5/15-6/19) and still hadn't heard. I lost my Hub access, but I had someone on the "inside" who told me I was showing at Ft. Wilderness. I was trying to get my brain around all of that (I had been hoping for DAKL) and finally had it settled, I was going to be at the Fort. I checked in on the 19th and that afternoon, got a call welcoming me to the All Stars! I was and (to be honest) as I have never been a fan. In hindsight, of course, it was where I needed to be.

I found out later that my area manager had done some wheeling and dealing to get me. Funny thing is, my current WDW job history STILL shows that I did my internship at the Fort. In fact, I just told DDs that I probably should go over and have a meet & greet with someone there since they have no clue who I was that whole time...

So...it should show up on the Hub closer to the date, BUT just be aware that changes could happen at any time.
