Sorry to hear that... what management role did you interview for?

 

[amy85]

I interviewed for the rooms and related....they sd that there are 18 positions, 10 front desk and 8 housekeeping....so thats a lot!!! Good luck to everyone that applied for it

Plant sciences at Epcot is the same as the animal programs.

Plant sciences is actually the same department as AP (Animal Programs), they were recently merged. That's why they interview the same.

Do they just post one listing for multiple internships?

Yep - the only way to know how many positions they are actually hiring is to ask during the interview or to find someone with insider connections.

So when is the actual deadline that we will all be hearing yes or no? Did I read somewhere that it was sometime in May? Or does it vary by job? I'm still confused as to why I haven't atleast received a screening interview yet, seems everyone else has already gotten theirs... I feel another day of disney shakes are a comin

 

[wakyzachy]

OMG I looked at my email and well another day of no email from Disney and another day of the Disney shakes.

Oh and as of dates who knows. When I did my pre-screening interview on April 2nd they said it could be 4 weeks till I hear a yes or no. So two more weeks to go for those of you who applied to the Graphic Design departments at Disney. It should be somewhere around May hopefully for me anyhow. But its different for every Disney department.

Yeah, I saw they were listed under the same category, but I figured I might as well point out that the Epcot operated the same way, since it's a different park and "animal" might throw some people off. I originally found the PS under the horticulture link, so I know it confused me at first too, and I was caught off guard by having both my interviews smooshed into one. I definitely wasn't as prepared as I wanted to be because of it, but luckily it went well anyway. (Despite my cell phone cutting off in the middle of it. So embarrassing.)

I'm kind of curious why the sciences are handled so differently, though. I was nervous at first when people were saying that PIs require CP experience, but luckily that's not the case in science. Probably because there are no CPs that relate to science.

And nope, you don't need a cover letter. They honestly do not read them.

Are you kidding me? I know it's optional, but my cover letter is where I put my heart and it kind of shows my personality - between the resume and cover letter, I take more pride in my cover letter because I assume we all have similar experience as we are applying for positions with requirements (in other words, everyone who applies for the same internship should meet those requirements, so while the details are different, the experiences are similar in nature). Not to happy right now.

Of course, it could also be partly because I still have not heard ANYTHING, just like some others here, not even a screening interview. I still have my fingers crossed though, I know I am perfect for the internship I applied for last week.

While others are asking, I'll put mine in too. Has anyone heard anything about College and International Program Coordinator, College Program Education Coordinator, Learning Center or College Program Recruiter positions? Two of them are new additions, but the others are from March and I have not seen anything on them here.

Now that all my major school projects are over with (the only thing that was keeping me sane - if you call my crying moodswings of the past couple of weeks sane), I can sit and dwell on this 24/7. My Disney shakes have turned into full blown convulsions.

Amanda (AMY), kudos on the internship. I know you really wanted the MI, and you were waiting for a sign to take (or not) the Ticketing one. I know you were hoping the sign you recieved would be for the other way around, but maybe it was still meant to be so that you would not have taken it and always wondered what if (or worse yet, turned it down only to not recieve another offer). Good luck in the coming months and network, netWORK NETWORK!!!

Congrats on the internship Amanda, I'm sure it will be great and networking is ALWAYS the key. I definitely believe everything happens for a reason, but it's good that you were able to interview because it would have been worse if you had to wonder what if all the time. Now you can just go and make the most of the opportunity you have!

 

[graygables]

Amanda, congratulations!!!

Still nothing on my phone. Arg. My managers all keep encouraging me and I'm trying not to be worried. At the very least, I know I'll be here until August, but my lease is until January and I REALLY want a PI since this semester's was cancelled, darn it!

Congratulations Amanda! Have fun getting ready for Florida!

YAY, there's still hope out there for recreation services! I have been waiting for the call to schedule the panel interview. I don't know how many out there are west coasters but the time difference sucks.

I guess I can always hope that there is more than one position...either that or I can move on.

Which Facebook group are you looking at?

I am from Middle TN State Univ.

I work in a region for recreation, it's called sassagoula. it covers, Port Orleans, Old Key West, Saratoga Springs, and Downtown Disney. and there are different things to do at each resort sorta.

I've worked at port 3 times since i've been here, never worked @ DTD, and most of my shifts are @ SSR since that's where I'm statused. but I also am trained @ dock @ OKW, so once or twice a week i'm there.

I was a CP in Sassagoula!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love them, i went back this summer and worked as well!!!!! I too was recreation, but i was pulled to lifeguarding. I have worked all over that region including DTD! Do you not love it there?? I know I did!!!! I was just there visiting everyone!

I missed that post (darned Blackberry!) Congratulations on your interviews, I'll be sending plenty of pixie dust your way!

Hey, I'm new here, but equally as frusterated as all of you! I applied for Guest Relations, Convention Marketing in Public Relations, Travel Marketing in Communications, and most recently College Recruiting(on Tuesday). I got an email from Travel saying I didnt get it, but I had a screening interview for the rest of them. The screening interview was just about a month ago (this friday). I WANT TO KNOW
Good luck to you all!!!
