The Official Fall/Fall Advantage 2010 Thread!

Hey guys! :yay:

My name is Bethany and I live in MD. I plan to apply for Entertainment and Photopass Photographer as my two top roles. The other positions that I plan to apply for would be Merch. and Attractions.


The auditions for what I really want to do start sometime in the spring in Philly... Nerves are hitting me hard... haha I haven't even applied for the term yet!
 

me three! Gosh darn it! Who's looking toward attractions? I thought I might apply for those and maybe a photographer. Maybe a character assistant. Do you have to audition for a character assistant (or whatever they call it. I forget...)?
 
There's no need to audition for character attendant.

I'm excited about attractions! It's #2 on my list. Merchandise was #3, but now I'm not so sure. I think it would be great to work in any park or hotel besides Epcot. I love Epcot, but I definitely don't want to work merch there.

Why wouldn't you want to do merch at Epcot? Is there something bad I should know? I love that one store near the entrance of Epcot that's HUGE and has like, everything..I always forget the name! But when I was there in June, that's where I got most of my souvenirs :)

uhh that was o/t. Any Epcot merch horror stories floating around??
 
The store you're thinking of is probably MouseGears. :)

And no, I haven't heard any horror stories. It's just a personal preferance. I'd rather work in a small store (or be rotated through many small stores) than a big one, and Epcot mostly has big, bright stores. I wouldn't mind working in some of the attraction gift shops, but I'd rather work at another park to be honest.

DHS has really fun little shops that I think would be amazing to work at, as does DAK and MK.
 
I'm the same way. I only have 2 or 3 that I am REALLY interested in. But I'm afraid I wont get in if I put fewer on my application.

But I would absolutely love Attractions or Merch.

Same here! Attractions and Merch are my top two choices. There's probably only about 2 others that I'd really want, but I'm just going to go ahead and check off more than that on my checklist and just hope for one of my tops! :thumbsup2
 
I'm not really sure what ones I would like. I've never had a real job so I can't tell haha. I would love to be a photographer but I wouldn't be able to go up to people like you're supposed to! The only thing I know is I wouldn't want to do anything where I would have to give speeches. Actually I would like to be Belle :P
 
Hey guys,
I made a realization. This thread was started March of 09, we're in Jan 2010 now and we've got less than 20 or so days(hopefully only 10, but who knows) until applications are up and we can apply for the Fall 2010 Walt Disney World College Program!

Glad to have made it this far with you all and I can't wait to apply and officially start this amazing journey!

I hope for the best for us all so we can finally meet up in the place where dreams come true! :)

-Lauren

I agree! It is so weird to think I was the 13th post in this thread and now we have 275 posts!! It has been a great journey thus far and I can't wait to continue this journey to see our dreams come true in Disney World!

I just wanted to let you know that the comments on your blog aren't working! I've tried to comment a couple times and they don't show up!

It happened to me with my last layout. There is some XML you have to add. If that doesn't work, something else is wrong with the scripting and if you want comments you may have to change the layout you used.
 
I wonder if they people who originally posted in this thread are still planning to apply?

i was the 5th person to post in this thread. time sure has passed since then. i remember at that my countdown name read "320 days untill i apply for FA 2010", now it says 14. i still plan on applying.
 
Agh - my school is being really dumb about the CP! Career Development sent me to the Registrar... and the lady at the Registrar told me to talk to Career Development! :headache:

Dumb. I just want it to all work out. :guilty:
