Hey here are some random questions about the program.

Do you take classes during the summer for the advantage program?

Are there any churches nearby the apartments?

How would you respond to working indoors or outdoors in interview?

Where are the best places to work? My top 3 are attractions merchandise and BBB. (i showed interest in others as well).What is working BBB like? any alum out there? [im kinda having second thoughts about BBB]

that is all i got for now. i am always thinking about being there thanks for any help! I got my phone interview next sat, then the wait to hear after that!

1) For WDW, classes are optional (so you don't have to take any).

2) There is a Catholic church just around the corner from the Commons

3) The weather doesn't bother me, so I would just say that I would be fine working wherever I am placed

4) Can't answer this unfortunately, as I've never worked at BBB. However, I have done merch and attractions. For merchandise, I loved working in Fantasyland. And for attractions, I love working at Great Movie Ride (locations will really be personal preference).

I have a few questions regarding the CP program.

Is there a gym to use or at least a local one near by?

How many hours per week do you work?

Can you request days off?

Thanks

Thanks

1. The apartments have workout areas.
2. You usually work around 40 but it can be more during the holidays. During Christmas week last year, I was scheduled 55 hours.
3. Yep, you can request days off on the Hub. They may not be approved though. But if they're not, you can always try giving away your shift.

I just wrapped up my College Program! If you do get the chance to do it, you must. Be yourself in the interview but also be conscious that there is a certain way to answer, that they are looking for specific answers. The Catholic church right down the street from The Commons, Chatham and Patterson is gorgeous and so easy to walk to. The weather isn't too bad when you really get into it, so you should be up for working outside!

What does that mean they are looking for specific answers? We're not mind readers.

No, I don't think so. At least for the first one, I think it's more just to see what kind of worker you are so if you're offered a position, they can place you somewhere that will be a good fit. As for the second one, if you've had challenges with roommates, it's ok to tell them and just say how you handled it. It's just because you'll be living with strangers (most likely) and challenges may arise. It's normal really.
