The Official Spring 2010 PI Thread

[kmg148]

Maybe it's because the internships are now closed to new applicants? That's all I can think of.

 

[vamoose27]

That's exactly what it means. I applied for a few that have been closed and one that for some reason is still open.

The position I applied for that's still open is still 'clickable.'
The positions I applied for that are closed aren't 'clickable' anymore.

 

[spectroaddy]

Here is hoping for good news for everyone starting tomorrow, good luck!!!! Everyone!!!!! Hopefully our wait will be over soon!!!!

 

[disneygirl716]

I thought so too... My friend told me that two others she had applied for had also closed, but they were still clickable. What is going to happen tomorrow, or is that just good luck to whomever will get a call?

 

[vamoose27]

Tell your friend to look and see if they're still posted, because the one I had was supposed to be closed but is still up -- even though it still lists that it closes on Oct. 23rd.

I applied Friday for the CP Alumni positions and got my rejection letter on Monday. Talk about quick service!

 

[vamoose27]

That's pretty crazy... what did you apply for?

 

[hokieproud]

I applied Friday for the CP Alumni positions and got my rejection letter on Monday. Talk about quick service!

A couple of us got that same letter to. Did it say that they found people who were more qualified? And what positions did it say were listed that you weren't accepted for? Did it just say the WDW CP Alumni Positions only?

Cause we had talked about that before. And we think that the individual posts hold more precedent over that one. So unless it listed that you weren't accepted to the individual positions you applied for then you should probably hear something else.

I forgot who, but they said that they received that email but also received emails from for individual positions.

Or at least thats what I'm hoping. Otherwise my hopes were long gone a while ago. Ha

Hey so Im an engineering student, and emailed out my resume then i got a call from an engineering department, they interviewed me and told me that i would be contacted by HR, so then i got an email to fill out a background check then when i turned that in, I got another email saying that casting is gonna call me soon. Does this mean i got the internship?

It cetainly sounds like it. Usually, once you get to the background check, it means you are in unless something comes up with it. They only run the background checks on those they are looking to employ. And, casting are the ones who hand out the official offers. If you hadn't gotten in, you would recieve a rejection email and your information would never have been forwarded to casting. However, from seasons past, casting can take forever to get back to you, but I'd plan on going since it sounds like it is all but official at this point.

That certainly sounds promising...was your interview a panel interview or was it just an initial screening interview? (I would be excited if I received an e-mail stating that HR was going to call me!)

Speaking of hearing back from internships....has anyone heard anything from animal programs? I wonder when they will start to send out acceptances or rejections...

I've had an interview with animal programs this past Friday. They said they would be interviewing for the next few weeks yet and they would have decisions out by December 10. Other departments, from what my screening interviewer said, should have their decisions in to casting by mid November, but even then, casting will then handle the offers and we could hear any time from mid November through sometime in December.

My interview was by one lady, who was an actual engineer, and she knew the job description. She was way chill and I actually did part of the interview riding my bike, they called me way out of the blue, I had just emailed my resume to a preety random email on the website. It must be easier for engineers, cause no joke the interview was preety non technical, and the lady was super down to earth. I am sure its harder for nonengineers, since disney doesnt pay the most competitive wages, If i accept my offer im sure it will be for 1/4th of what i could be making in oil and gas. Good luck everyone.

Thanks for the info! When I interviewed they mentioned they were still at the beginning of the process...I was just wondering how far along they had come since then.

Though I do hope to find out sooner rather than later...patience is difficult when it comes to Disney!

I got the rejection letter several weeks after my interview for the CP Alumni positions (I applied for three of those), so I feel you...but that's nuts that they rejected you that quickly without even a screening interview .

 

[Mari110]

i'm super nervous.. i have yet to hear from Disney!!

i applied to 2 alumni only PI positions and a marketing planning internship. the screening interview went okay it was back in Oct 4.

she told me i would have to wait till the end of Oct to find out if i get into the alumni only positions, and for the other internship i would have to wait for a e-mail with either a rejection or for setting up a second interview.

the time has gone sooooo slow! hopefully i'll hear from them this week! *crossing-fingers* LOL!
