who is doing a Pro Internship in 09?

[tink8685]

Yeah, I really hope it is based on individual departments, although regardless, time is coming to an end. I have yet to hear anything on the PI's I want, but I haven't seen anyone else mention them either, so I'll count that as a good sign. BonBon, have you heard from the recruiting or College Education Coordinator departments yet?

I applied for the College Education Coord. PI also...I haven't heard from that department yet though. What other PIs did you apply for? And have you heard from any?

I just found out I will have my second interview for college recruiting tomorrow at 4. Wish me luck!!

I also applied for College and International program coordinator, College and International Program recruiter and Learning Center - these are the four that I really want (including the one you mentioned) and I have not heard anything here,facebook or from Disney. The other two that I applied for are Guest Relations and Ticketing. I have heard of others getting interviews and offers for these two, which I am okay with as these were my last choices and I do not meet the recommended skills (I'm not fully bilingual), although I do meet all of the required qualifications.

Majority of my body has stopped shaking since i nearly had a heart attack this morning from getting prepared and pumped with disney music pre-interview.

Overall I am thinking that I delivered the best answers possible, I feel confident about the experience with the panel of two women.

I was cheery at the beginning and conclusion but serious about my answers. maybe to serious??

but there were no questions that matched my list...so people be ready for anything, and also I did not do just 3 questions but i think 5 or 6 open-ended questions. they just let me talk and there was no reactions that i could see through my phone.

so now i hope to hear from Laurabeth and other that are going through it right now. Good luck people!

and ps I forgot to ask when i will hear back!!! mother of !!! son of a !!

I just had my interview. I want to say it went well, but then part of me says no. I don't know what to think. Oh well. Hehe.

did you go for Retail MGMT?? i thought?? maaaybe? was it a panel for you?
why are there thoughts of uncertainty?

i hope they loved me too.

 

[namara87]

I just got offered a position for Retail MI starting June 19th! Strange thing is...I had a interview scheduled at 11:30am pst, but got a call at 10:30am from the PI office offering me the position! I told the woman I spoke with that I had an interview scheduled...but she said the decision was based off of my interview from last semester!!! now I'm waiting to see if the interviewers are going to call att 11:30....regardless...I'm so freaking excited!

Good Luck to everyone still waiting to here!

Gray, there is still hope!

Yes, I interviewed with Retail Management and it was a panel...of only 2. I have major doubts because I couldn't hear what they were asking! Their speaker phone kept cutting out. I asked a few times for them to repeat the questions, but I didn't want to sound unprofessional, so I stopped asking after the second time. Now I'm regretting that decision.

I don't know if they were asking "how," "when," what," or "why." I tried answering every possible solution, but I now feel like I was too long-winded.

I don't think I was talking to casting. I'm pretty sure I was interviewing with the retail managers because I have a friend who is a retail manager. When I mentioned that my friend had the same position, they asked who it was and they said they knew her really well.

How did you do? How big was your panel?

A quick question - Did those of you who are currently on the CP do the non-alumni assessment? (WDW - Professional Internships Non - Alumni Sp 09)

Thanks

thats amazing! i am shocked and stunned -- really you are GOOD!!
wowza- congrats!!

i wonder how long it will take for the rest to find out if we are accepted by the DIS lords?

 

[Rufio]

well I tried to use an example and or tell a story based on the question related to either my work experience, my classes, or my college program.
I was trying to give them enough of an answer not to be too short, but I could have come across somewhat word...but i stayed away from the dreaded "ums" and "aaa"s though.

Panel was two women as well...probably the same peeps? my friends that a PI said we should give it two weeks max but really a few days is not enough.

im still nervous if they will approve of me

Hopefully you won't have to wait too long, otherwise you'd have zero time to make living arrangements! Did you get the PM's I sent you last night? Hope that info helped.

I think they have to have all decisions made by May 1st. Is this true?

Hey Congrats!!!
Another ZONI I live up near Anthem and I am checking in June 19th as well. When are you planning on driving over to FL?

yes i received that and it was a big help! ya I hope they did not think I was overly stern or monotone during with my answers...
they just seemed so distant and difficult to tell what they were thinking by there facial expressions. Phones blow

If this IS true, that makes me really nervous. It is driving me nuts that I have not heard a single thing from ANY of the PIs I applied for. I am really excited for those who are getting interviews and are now getting OFFERS! But all this news just makes me worry that I might not be hearing from Disney anytime soon.

I guess my only comfort right now is that I will have a chance to apply again for January to June internships for 2010!

Sweet! Do you go to ASU? Not quite sure on when I'm driving out yet. I'm hoping to get the living situation squared away before anything...cause at this moment, I have no clue where I'm going to live lol... I'll probably leave around the 14th or 15th though.

haha..I'm sure you did fine. I was like that after my interview last season too, not sure how well my answers were received and all. I mean crickets were chirping between questions in my mind. hahaha.

 

[AndyCP]

So far from info on hear and from things I hear elsewhere is that so far management offers have only been given to people who interviewed last time -which worries me since this time was the first time I interviewed!

 

[bonbon]

BonBon, have you heard from the recruiting or College Education Coordinator departments yet?

I have heard zilch, nada, nothing. *sigh* I am determined to be in the "no news is good news" party. I'm calling casting again tomorrow, as I haven't heard back from them re:summer alumni/PI potential conflict. Maybe they can tell me something.

btw, congrats namara!
