Hi all! I haven't posted in awhile because I am currently on an internship now as a Conservation Education Presenter at DAK.

I also applied for some next semester: YES and Youth Events.

Did you have a second interview for YES?

Congrats to everyone who has gotten accepted!
It seems like everyone is getting calls, and my phone is silent. I haven't gotten a rejection yet, though, so I am trying to stay hopeful.
I'm hoping calls will start again this afternoon?

My phone is ready and waiting!

Though it seems that most of the calls being made are for alumni-only positions...hopefully one animal programs call for me will be mixed in there too!

Hello all - I was in your place a year ago and just wanted to say hang in there! If you're like I was I wanted to know each and every job offered and accepted so I wanted to let you know my friend just accepted the Communications Planning PI for spring.

I'm sorry to those of you that are waiting to hear about it!

Got a call back yesterday, at 12 during my combustion class, so i didn't answer but noticed it was orange county. I called back after class and baddabing baddaboong I got my PI. Engineering PI at Walt Disney World. They only gave me 24 hours to accept or deny, so i accepted. You all should of been engineers cause from what it seems it makes it a lot easier, Ive never worked for Disney before I put in my resume, had a 20 minute non technical interview and I got the job, gotta love it. As for everyone else good luck hope to see you all there. They did ask me if i could adhere to some look policy and i was like im preety clean cut so i was like I assume so, then she asked me if i had piercings or tatoos and besides the huge tribal across my face I said no (JK). The only differnece is they asked me if could provide my own trasportation casue im assuming the manufacturing facilities are not in the stop for the bus. They asked me if I wanted housing, and I had no clue, so she said say yes and then you can back out later. 400 bucks is preety steep to share a room. Are theses places like dorm atmosphere with something to do always or just appartments? I also realized i need to rewatch alot of disney movies from here to january.

BigTex not sure if you'll get word of this post but couldn't figure out a way to message you (don't think there is). I felt the disney sponsored housing was steep to share a room and heard not so great things about it please contact me if your interested in hearing about some of the other opportunities for housing I've found (mbylund7@vt.edu) anyone else whos interested feel free to contact me too I just need some roommates so I can get something set up.

out of curiousity -

are people getting calls from Unknown numbers, or 407s?

 

[bgirl781]

Has anyone else still not had a first interview? And did anyone else apply for the costumer PI?

 

[Ayame]

Well, we all won't be getting any calls or emails today (I think) so everyone enjoy Veterans Day!

Hey everyone, I am now looking for either 2 or 3 roommates. I've found two places at the same spot. It's $1450 for the 3 bed room ($485 a person) and $1900 for the 4 bed room ($475 a person), UTILITIES INCLUDED but will be even cheaper as I plan to take the master bed room and will pay accordingly. Please contact me soon as the 3 bed room is the last one left. Once again all utilities are included, so your going to get your own room for cheaper living than the Disney housing, its also not too late for you to back out of your Disney housing if you want. Look forward to hearing from all of you and congrats.

hey bgirl...I applied for costume buying and never heard anything...but someone already said they got in on fbook. I had a first interview for cp alum positions only, but still haven't heard back. Which costuming internships did you apply for? And any others? I've done a PI before, and I know things can change at the last minute, but we shall see...good luck!!

when disney has called me its always come up as Unknown (cuz castings number comes up that way).. but sometimes if you've had 2nd interviews with managers and leaders.. it depends where they call you from.. they 407 is due to the location of the call.. if its from their Celebration offices or from the on-sites.. it all depends what role you are being selected for.

 

[JessRawls]

when they called me, it was a private number

 

[fswm]
