new CM

[tbidwell@gmail.com]

Hi all. I am lucky enough to have been hired as a CM starting in January '06. A college recruiter came to my school in September hiring for Disney World internships. Anyways, I was hired to work in "Quick Serve Food & Beverage" (meaning either counter-service or one of the small stands scattered throughout the parks). Unfortunately, I do not find out where exactly I'll be working until I arrive on Disney property. I was wondering what places I should be crossing my fingers for (either because the food or the theming is good). Right now I'm just really hoping to be placed inside one of the parks (instead of a hotel). Thanks!

Congratulations!! I hope you have a great time working at WDW and that you get a really fun assignment.

I'm curious. Does Disney help you find somewhere to live too, or are you on your own to find something?

Best wishes!

A friend of mine did it 2 years ago...she was at an ice cream place(Mrs. Potts I believe), she had a great time.

Good luck with your new position. Hope pixie dust comes your way & you get a spot in the park. If not, just remember, it may be just one in many stepping stones in the future to get you where you really want to be.

I will basically be living in Disney dormitories. They are furnished apartments with two people per bedroom, and 1-4 bedrooms per apartment.
