If you get offered a position, does it come through email or regular mail like the CP? Last semester with the cuts it seems like all the notices came via email.

From what I saw go down last semester, offers were phone calls, rejections were emails. The only mail was a packet after you accepted the offer.

Happy news for me...I have my 1st interview tomorrow morning!

Congrats and best of luck! If you don't mind my asking, what position are you interviewing for?

Berlioz70, Did you feel like you had enough time to take an online class during your PI? I read someones journal about my PI and it sounds like it 5days a week 8-5. I was unsure how much downtime you felt you had during your PI? Thanks!

I varies based on the position, I personally work M-F 8:30-5 so I have TONS of downtime and could easily do a class on-line if needed.

You will first get a phone call then have 24 hours to accept or decline. Once you accept then you'll get the acceptance e-mail with a form that you have to fill out before you officially get the job. It's the phone call that will tell you your wage, location, etc.

Does anyone know if it is bad, if you have not had a 1st interview (screening) yet???? I am currently status as an active seasonal cast member!!! I am getting worried I haven't heard anything, only communication I received was through animal programs and Epcot science. Does anyone know anything, I am worried

I'm new to the world/craziness of professional internships as I just found out about them a couple weeks ago. I got my applications in for 2 of the animal programs last Thursday and have yet to hear anything. Is this normal? Is there anyone I can call/email to see whats up. I don't want to let the opportunity pass by being passive.

TIA!

Katie

You'll see in this thread that some people have waited over a month, so a couple weeks is the norm!

So I applied for an animal program internship but am now having second thoughts as to if I meet the requirements. The website says that internships must be completed within one year of graduation and the internship I applied for ends January 2010...however I technically graduated December 2008 which would make me a month shy of the "one year". I called the question line and the lady said that it's fine, but I'm wondering what you guys think.

Thank you!

Just a happy dance...had my interview this morning and I'm moving forward in all areas! Now, the wait begins for the hiring leaders to call...

I'm still anxiously waiting the call, is this normal? Not to get any type of response, granted I just applied March 11th so have I not given them enough time? And does anybody have anything to share about the Costuming PI Department? That's where I applied for 3 different positions, so I didn't know if maybe they did things differently as I've noticed no one else here mention that area of the PI.

Some of the applications didn't close until the 13th and some are still open, so they might just not have gotten to yours yet. I had applied for one back in mid-Feb and just got the call for the initial interview yesterday. Don't give up hope!

I applied for the Travel Industry Marketing Creative Development Internship the day it was posted (Valentine's Day) and sent in my electronic portfolio within 2 weeks and I still haven't heard anything back from them. I also applied for the Animal Program/Animal Technology Intern on Valentine's Day, sent in everything they needed and they said I probably won't hear anything until May 1st. Then, I applied for the Communication Planning:Graphic Design/Journalism one on March 11th (when it was posted), printed out and sent my portfolio to them that weekend. It arrived to them Tuesday, March 17th and they gave me a call Friday the 20th to sent up a phone interview with me tomorrow afternoon. I guess it just depends on the department! Don't worry, there is plenty of time.

I applied for 2 more in Events. I currently love my event management class, and I'm hoping to get a call soon! ^_^ I probably don't have enough experience for the Sports Complex PI, but I think I could get one of the events ones, as one of my jobs is almost entirely events.

 

[Ellagirl]

Did they recently post the event ones? Is it too late to apply? Does anyone know when the deadline is for when they will let you know?

 

[Rufio]

yo sir!
hey wondering which one you are getting interviewed for? or is it a general interview?
thats what i got so far...and then i sent my huge application in. now im just waiting...

 

[lea509]

anyone really hoping for gr?

also, I know people are starting to hear back from DAK Education Presenters, but have people started hearing about the Con-Ed ones?

 

[Rufio]

Katie...im in the same boat of nervousness...and sweating non-stop for the response I submitted mine last Monday and still no word yet.
I think weeks will have to define our patience.

its terrible just waiting...
