who is doing a Pro Internship in 09?

[brad_vandyke12]

You will absolutely LOVE it. It pays relatively well, great location, GREAT group of people to work with. Plus no matter what your role is with ticketing, you'll get to learn so much about park operations. It's an office environment, and when I worked there my schedule was M-F 830-5. I got to work with every executive from every line of business so it was an amazing networking experience. You will love it, I'm jealous. Here's a tip, make friends with everyone there, they're all seasoned cast members and can really help you network. It's not to make friends though, the whole team is awesome.

Congrat's and good luck!!!

Ah I'm so excited! What did you do within ticketing? What were some of the duties you had? This may be a weird question but what is the dress code there for the guys? Thanks for all the insight! I can't wait! I check in June 19!

It depends on who's calling

If it is someone calling you for your interview or offering you your position, they're doing it from their home so it'll come up unknown. But if someone from a physical location on property is calling, the number should show up.

This is not true. Company policy states all work business needs to be conducted in office or on property while on the clock. It depends on what line out they are using if it comes up unknown or not.
On that note. I still have no call or no email

I was just going to add that my offer came from a 407 number as have all of my calls with the exception of the actual interviewer, which was a number outside the 407 area code. It is my understanding that the interviewers do often work from home (as I looked into that as a possible job at one time).

I would also caution believing what a search engine says about a number's origin. I saved the 407 number I received my offer from, but when I tried to call back with a question, it was "not a valid number". A few days later, I received another call from the very same number, so my telecommunications Dad told me that it's not at all uncommon for businesses to use numbers that are listed in a funky way and block incoming calls to those numbers.

Not a great day...

sorry bout the news....
i am still waiting with no emails yeh or ney.

did you apply for others?

 

[Rufio]

so update on deadline....

the punch line is that every recruiter has a different answer on the phone for a deadline.

last week was June 1st....this week May 15th then "not been informed of a deadline" then finally 5 minutes ago they told me monday would be the last day.

any thoughts anyone? my dis peeps please call and research this....and maybe we can average a day.

i need a cranial massage after this.

 

[Tink the Rock Star]

Another day done, let's hope tomorrow is a good day!

Get some rest, relax, and here's some pixie dust. Good luck!

No, he only applied for the F&B management internship. It's just kind of a drag because his managers really encouraged him to apply, and thought he had whatever it was that Disney is looking for. It would have been nice if he could have at least interviewed to see what exactly they were looking for and where he might be lacking. On the other hand, it could just be that there were a very limited number of this internship and there were just lots of qualified people. Anyway, I'll be happy to have him home and he can finish his last semester of college and reapply for 2010 if he is so inclined.

Good luck to the rest of you who are still waiting!

 

[namara87]

Rufio, I can only add that last season was the exact same waiting game. After the initial interview, I was told 2-3 weeks. Then after a month went by, I called, and was told till the next Friday. Then the next Friday, and so on. I was not informed of my rejection till about 10 days before I was supposed to check-in. Hopefully that won't happen with you all who are still waiting........I'm currently at ASU's commencement waiting for Obama to speak along with 60000 other people, yet I'm still checking this board with my Blackberry every hour LOL. I hope it's good news for everyone whose interviewed at least

The people who do the screening interviews work from home. They are located all over the country and conduct their business from home offices.

 

[tink8685]

so just to take a poll...who else out there hasn't even receieved an initial phone call and/or email after applying? or am i the only one? I applied March 11 to my first three then the first week in April I applied to two more...and still no word from the Mouse. I want to call casting again, but I've already called three times so I don't want them to think I'm being too pushy

You're not the only one, I first applied back in February, though I've pretty much given up hope at this point...

Are you looking for Disney housing or off-property?

 

[dopeyrunner]

Looks like Disney is starting to send out more information emails, for those excepted I just got one yesterday about check-in and today about housing. Anyone else getting emails, I still wish I knew what to expect like the first week. I know traditions I have to take but I wonder if I have to take any other classes at DU.

 

[Ace215]

Hey guys, if anyone is looking for housing other than Disney's housing, I am looking for 2 more people, male or female for Coral Cay. Rent is $429 and includes ALL utilities + internet, cable maybe. A deposit will be due prior to move in. Let me know ASAP if you are interested!!!

Good luck to all who are still waiting to hear the good news!!
