who is doing a Pro Internship in 09?

[amy85]

Rufio- the position is for a Disney vacation club assistant position. From what i can tell i would be working at the welcome center at Saratoga springs; showing the model home and giving out information. I worked front desk for 9 months during my college program, at the wilderness lodge, a dvc resort; so i really hope that makes me qualified. I'm just really excited to get a second interview!!!

More bad news from my area today...our CP Champion leader was relocated. It's good she kept her job, but she really was an awesome CP leader and spearheaded a lot of what was going on at AK. With the Cast Services gone, we CPs back in Dinoland are now hung out to dry until they can figure out who's going to be in charge of us. Yikes.

I've not heard anything at all about any of the PIs I've applied for at this point. I'm in the no news is good news camp.

I'm also going to be interviewing for the DVC assistant internship, although I still have to set up a time.

I also have an interview this Monday for the CP operations internship.

I'm excited about both of these two, so we'll see what happens!

Here's my timeline of my application/interview process:

I applied for 3 internships that were available on February 16th.

I had my screening interview on February 27th.

For one of those three positions (Services for Guests with Disabilities) I had an interview on March 16th. For the second (Management Intern- Sports Complex) I found out the position was filled on March 26th. For the third, DVC Sales Assistant I am interviewing this Friday, April 4th.


I also applied to a few more that became available in early March on March 15th. I have heard from one of them- the College Program Operations Internship and am interviewing with them tomorrow. I haven't heard back from any of the other ones that I applied to in March.

Management Intern- Sports Complex) I found out the position was filled on March 26th.

this one is still on my workbench and I have not received a rejection email...can you tell me how you found out it was filled?

 

[MegaraRocks!]

i am in the midst of step 5 right now.
which one were you rejected on and what other ones did you apply for?

by the way...i love your theory-and agree.

all toes and fingers and any nearby animals feet and fur crossed!!
im going to go take a pixie bath right now-then tomorrow morning have a little on my breakfast!

I am on step 9 for Group and Conventions Public Relations, and Sales and Travel Public Relations, I made it to step 11 (dispair) with Travel Industry Marketing. I applied for a few more but have had no magical responses. u?

So I thought It may be benefical for everyone to list the PIs they applied for (prefably ranked) and where they are at with them. It might be helpful to know A) who you need to stress with and B) if people have heard for the ones you have applied for.

The ones I applied for are:
1) Travel and Sales Public Relations (just second interviewed, awaiting response)
2) Group and Conventions Public Relations (just second interviewed, awaiting response)
3) Travel Industry Marketing and Communications (2nd interviewed and rejected)
4) MK Events Assistant (preliminary interview)
5) DVC Sales Assistant (preliminary interview)


Cant wait to hear from everyone, to know who is with me in my stressful adventure towards Disney Bliss

I received an email saying I was no longer considered and I had a question so I had emailed a PI recruitment manager and he said the position had been filled and i was still being considered for other internships I applied for. It is still on my workbench too, but if you haven't received an email, maybe you are still being considered. The manager did say that the position was dilled, but maybe he just told me that because I'm out of the running.

Good idea, as I've not seen any mention on this board whatsoever for the PI's I've applied for... nor have I received any preliminary interview. I'm still hoping no news is good news.

The ones I applied for:
1) Costuming Buyer Internship
2) Costuming Workroom Internship
3) Costumer Internship
4) Costuming Design Internship

That is interesting, b/c once it's been filled, it usually drops off the workbench, at least that was my experience last semester.

1) Sports Complex Mgmt
2) Guest Relations
3) Learning Center
4) Animal Programs/ConsEd/DAKL
5) Animal Programs/ConsEd

I've received a confirmation email from Animal Programs that my application is complete. No calls as of yet. I've had my screener and initial interview for the other 3 positions, was moved forward, but have heard nothing else.

oh i see very interesting indeed!
no magical response for me yet just a first round interview/aka pre-screening.
and it was for the one internship i applied for at the time, since it fit pretty easily with my major.

but i have not recieved a email nor call yet since i turn it in on 19th of March.

hmmm.
so what did they say about your rejection...sorry for being noisy.
and what questions were asked during the interview??!

ive only applied for 2. guest relations and the travel marketing....so not sure what is next!

thanks again!

aw....well...

im only going for the magical two...
seems like i should have gone the distance for more, but i was loyal to my old managers from strollers and they told me to focus on at the most three and only around your major/and i was dying from my school work load...but im questioning everything these days...

anywho....

mine are
1))the Travel Marketing/Graphics ((same as Meg))--(pre-screening)
2))Guest Relations--

so im in the dark waiting to see if they like my portfolio hopefully...and my workbench states my app was completed as well

wheres peter frickin pan when i need him!

Im freaking out. My phone, for some reason or another, was turned off by Verizon. The bill is paid! I'm part of a family plan, so I can do nothing until my aunt takes care of it =( they won't talk to me since my name isn't on the plan.

The issue: what if I get called for an interview??! *sigh* Im a bundle of nerves. I know Ive been turned down for one PI, but there's still two others (MK Events, CP Events) and I have high hopes for those. But if they call me, it says my number is not valid. That's going to likely count against me. What to do??

Do you have another number you can give them? I'd call the PI office and let them know, give them a new number (even if it's just a prepaid cell phone for now) or ask them to please contact you via email.

I was just curious about this... My school goes by trimesters and I was a senior this year and I finished all of my classes on March 20th but i still walk in May with everyone else. Do you think that since i am now finished my classes that im not enrolled or since i walk in May that they would still consider me a student? I just want to make sure that they would still consider me for an internship. Thanks!

 

[MegaraRocks!]

I think that that is a question for the PI department. I am sure it would still consider you because it wouldnt really be fair to not, but I would call and confirm that. Were you a CP, if so do you still have access to the portal so you can look up a number. I tried the website but couldnt find contact info, SORRY!

Hey everyone!

I applied for the Animal Programs/Animal Technology Internship. I received a few emails where they asked for more information earlier this month, then I received another email asking me for a good day for an interview. I was supposed to have an interview last Tuesday (3/24) but I received a phone call saying it was going to be postponed as the person interviewing me had to step out of the office..then I tried e-mailing that person to let them know that I received the message (since it was left on the answering machine) but I got a "email is no longer valid" so I was a little worried

Then today, I received a phone-call asking simple questions like if I worked for Disney in the past, and that I would be available to work every day including overtime from June-January, and that I would be fine to work within the Disney Look. Then she asked me when a good time to reschedule my interview would be and I said Thursday, so my interview is now scheduled for Thursday at 230!

Anyone else apply for Animal Technologies? I'm wondering if it will be a panel interview or one-on-one
