who is doing a Pro Internship in 09?

[packwingfn]

For those of you who got acceptances from Animal Programs...Did you all have 1 or 2 interviews?

I'm still waiting for a possibile 2nd interview (in Animal Technology), It's been 3 weeks since my initial interivew. Should I call them and ask if I'm still being considered for the position?

 

[JenJas87]

Okay I think, I was reallly nervous!!!! How about you? Did they mention to you how many positions there was going to be? They said these positions at one point but I'm not sure.

no, i didnt ask, and im not sure they said anything in mine. I was the last of the day so i think they were kinda tired of asking questions and giving info

Tink, I gotta tell you, until 2 PM today I was right there with ya. I honestly thought I was getting another debt collector calling for the person who used to have my number when I picked up. Then they asked for me! It will come to you when you least expect it

Refresh my memory, what PIs were you applying for? Keep in mind, Ive applied for 6, turned down for one (no interview), got one interview, and the other 4 are still MIA, so maybe those 4 are the same.

I feel a little better knowing that you were in the same boat as me right up until yesterday. But did you get an initial screening phone call or was yesterday your first phone call and they asked to interview you?

I applied for Communications Planning: Graphic Design/Journalism, Guest Relations, Magic Kingdom Event Planning Assistant...then last week I applied for College Program Recruiter and College Program Education Coordinator.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed!!

I'm right there with ya! Having not even had a screening interview yet is very disheartening this late in the game... It's hard to stay positive! At this point I'm wondering why I haven't gotten a rejection email yet?! Maybe we'll be one of those luckily people that get the job without even a screening interview... haha wishful thinking I know!

Just wondering but wasn't there someone out there that had gotten the very same email as I, that was a rejection email stating that we didn't qualify for the internship because we weren't in school? To which we both replied back that we were very much so in college?! Just wondering if you're still out there and if you've had you're screening interview yet...

That was me Nope--haven't heard anything since that email. I may try and call later to see if there's any updates. At this point, I just want to know either way!

from the animal program coordinator

"We are still working through all our files. We are still targeting May 1st as the finial day we would contact all our candidates."

frustrating since people are already getting offers. guess all we can do is keep holding on and waiting!!

Just had my interview for the education coordinator PI. I think (hope) it went great. *crossing fingers*

Well one more week left out of the 5 week waiting period since the interview. May 1st cant come any sooner. Since I put in my application its been 1 month and 3 weeks. Today I got lunch and I signed the bill with a mickey mouse pen. I hope that was a good luck sign. The shakes seem to be wearing off as its been going on 2 months now. Congrats to all who got offered positions. It must be the graphic design team at Disney that takes sooo long to process applications.

I am graduating this semester and doing the disney college program starting in august. Does that mean I won't be able to apply for a professional internship next session because i'm already graduated

You can certainly still do one! =) many actually want CP grads, so it actually helps you out.

That was my first phone call from Disney re: PIs. I dont know what the screening phone calls are, maybe since Im still employed by Disney (Campus Rep) I didn't have to do one? And I haven't heard a peep from events, bc I see we both applied for the one at MK. I dont think I know of anyone that has heard from them, if that helps ease your shakes a little.

Good luck!

Congratulations to all the new acceptees!!! I just got the email with the link to the info form and I got my call on Wed, so keep watching those inboxes! I'm still over the moon excited.

I interviewed this past Monday, so it was great to hear back so soon!

Emily, Congratulations! My son applied a week ago (he is currently doing QSF&B CP) and hasn't heard anything! We are bummed, but very happy for you! Wish I knew how many F&B management internships they are going to be.

Thank you so much, I am really happy/thankful for the opportunity! I did the CP last year in FSF&B. I wish I knew how many F&B management positions there are, because I meant to ask during my interview and I totally forgot! Hope your son is enjoying the CP, good luck to him!
