Fall 2010 Professional Internships

[bellesrose22]

I also applied for the fall adv cp as a backup, I'm worried i'll have to accept/decline my cp offer before I hear about my PI's.

I'm pretty sure that I read somewhere that you can accept the Cp before you hear about the PI, and it won't count against you later if you decide to decline. I've applied for one too just in case!

When I asked this question today, my interviewer said that as of now they were told no, that this one be the one and only interview. I think she also said that this is the first time they have done it that way.

Really? So they aren't going to have managers do the second round of interviews? hmmmm....

That's what I was told....so I'll believe it for right now. It seemed to sound like from her reaction that this was a new approach--maybe one that doesn't take as long. She definitely asked a lot of questions, so I wouldn't be surprised.

And yes, you can totally accept a CP while waiting for a PI. I've done this, and many others have. If you see Graygables on the boards, she did this too. If you opt to live in the housing (for non-managements PI's), they will transfer the fee apparently. Don't worry about it hurting you. I think it shows how dedicated you are about your future and that you want to work for WDW no matter what!

Was this for the alumni-only PIs? Or management internships?

Well, she told me that my interview was for both internships...so I just asked in general. I didn't think to ask specifically.

I think her name was Deedra. Something like that. Don't know if that her, but she was really friendly! Thanks for the good luck wishes.

Hopefully it works out. If I don't get a job with Disney, I don't know what I will do. This is all I have ever wanted. Seriously. This is it.

I'm new to the boards and applied for an MI last week and got the email on Saturday to set up my interview, which is tomorrow.

I just want to say thank you to everyone who's posted information concerning the interviews. It's gone a long way in calming my nerves about the interview process, but nonetheless I'm still both nervous and excited!

I had my screening interview for a graphic design PI yesterday.

Everything went great!

A few of the questions I was asked pertained to situational circumstances.

Mainly, questions like "We have a high demand schedule, can you tell me about a time when you were in a high demand position and how you handled it."

Everyone cross their fingers for me, things sounded really great from my interviewers end.

Good luck to everyone else as well!

So had my first interview for the recreation management and earmarked conference/aaa PI on Sunday. Thought it went well, then on Monday got an email stating that I wasn't a right canadiate for the recreation management one. Well I started pretty much emailing everyone I knew that was linked or would know more information about it. Well The position is no longer being filled, which you know that is all they should have said in the first place.

I hope no one else's management internship has the same fate.

Yikes! That really sucks, why on earth would they list it if they had no intention of filling the position? I've had some concerns about the PI's since I had been hearing talk that they weren't going to have as many positions as they had in the past.

On other news I was talking to a girl at my school who just had her interview on Wednesday, and her interviewer told her this was the last week of first interviews and then it would go to hiring or something like that. I'm hoping for some news soon because this wait is unbearable!
