who is doing a Pro Internship in 09?

[ibaw]

i got the mk event assistant, but again with the reorganization it is now working in all the theme parks.

No, the position is the OL&D Animal Programs internship.

We have told casting who we want... they are the ones that call and make the offer, we're not allowed to. So who knows when the person will be contacted - that's what I find interesting.

I assume casting has to file appropriate paper work or something along that line, which is why the process gets slowed down?

I'm still curious to what this OL&D Animal Programs Internship is.

I would agree with Brenna; the casting process slows things down. The process takes a while for you to get the call after the area decides that they want you. If you went through a phone screen, they like to have the same person who gave you your phone screen call and offer you your position. These interview partners as they're called, work for several other programs - their schedules are jampacked. After Casting gets the green light, they file the proper paperwork, cross their t's, dot their i's, and then put you in the queue for the proper interview partner. The Professional Recruitment team was very small before the restructuring of the company and I can only imagine that it's gotten smaller. They're stressed, you're stressed haha.

well, there you have it. That was kind of my last hope, since it had seemed that no one had heard from events. Im just going to assume I didnt get one, book my hotel for Summer Alumni, and move on with my life in that direction (im already cutting it razor-close, waiting to book my hotel this late; I was lucky that southwest will let you switch fly dates at no cost so I could at least book that last week).

I wish everyone else lots of luck and pixie dust, and feel free to come find me this summer!!

I'm really frustrated that the deadline is now June 1! I am going on a cruise with my family May 30-June 6...which means ill have no cell service probably! uuugh...maybe if i call them and explain that I won't be able to receive calls then maybe they will tell me sooner?? I dont know...i'm just beginning to lose hope altogether at this point

 

[pinkprincess07]

Hey Everyone! I have applied for a few PIs and am still waiting to hear back and Im also waiting to hear from Casting about going full time if i cant get a PI. I got a call this morning from a 401-560-7315 number and i know its DIsney but they didnt leave a message. I was curious if anyone else has gotten a call from this number. I googled it and one said it was a guest relations number and another said it was a MGM number. Does anyone have a clue, i tried to call it back but it wouldnt let me. Thanks!!!

 

[islandears]

Just got the rejection email. Darn. Good luck to everyone else!

 

[graygables]

Just got the animal prgrm rejection so there is at least some movement

 

[dopeyrunner]

I am surprised that casting has taken so long to get back to call backs. I must have been one of the lucky ones. Cause between the panel interview and the offer it was about 3 business days. I interviewd on a thursday got a call from casting regarding a bio summary on monday and acceptance offer on tuesday. Within 48 hours I got a email to accept or deny.
So far the only thing I have found slow has been getting email backs regarding questions that I have.

Bonbon, are you working in the same location for your alumni?? I am going to be working seasonal at my old job, which is merchandise in FWSE, so I am sure I will pass you, since our office is behind Innoventions West.

 

[packwingfn]

I received an email saying that the Animal Technology Internship has been dissolved! This is what it said:

During the middle of our recruiting process, that particular position was dissolved. Since the internship no longer exists, we were unable to offer you a position. This was an unusual situation.

I had a feeling it would happen when my first interview got postponed to a further date when they said the lady stepped out of the office, and they were going through a restructuring of the department.

How sad, because who knows? I could have actually been a strong canditate for them but the economy sucks right now so I see that being the strong and only reason it got dissolved. What a tough time it is right now.

 

[can84]

Well, at least there's finally an answer, even is it is not the one I was hoping for. Lauarebeth, is it ok if PM you with a couple of questions about living offsite for the CP?
To everyone still waiting, I hope you get good news!

 

[PennState24]

Just received the animal program rejection letter as well. At least there was not more weeks of waiting. CP here I come

 

[Rufio]

Just got the rejection email. Darn. Good luck to everyone else!

im sorry. what did you apply for??
and im guessing you applied for multiple PIs?

 

[Rufio]

well, there you have it. That was kind of my last hope, since it had seemed that no one had heard from events.

there is still hope right? or was that the only PI you applied for?

That is really sad... oh economy... why us???

I think I am. The Hub still says im statused as a campus rep, but other reps told me to look under development connection for classes related to summer alumni roles, and I see innoventions venues, however some of them no longer exist, so who knows. I'll know by May 18th!

 

[bonbon]

there is still hope right? or was that the only PI you applied for?

I applied for 6, and I recieved one rejection, and Ive seen everyone else get PIs I was applying for, and they found out ages ago, so Im holding.01% hope, but I wont freak out if my phone is in another room anymore. Im just going to plan on Summer Alumni, and who knows? I had a friend who moved into a PI, because the person that got it didnt work out or something, so he moved into it. So I'll cross my fingers for that, but I wont worry if it doesnt happen (and that was obviously not the norm so Im not even hoping for that).

 

[Rufio]

just wondering if anyone has any updates...

I just got a call which was not such a tease but it was from the secretary of Meg Crofton and if you know who that is...ya
so i dont know what going to happen now. the sec. told me they are reviewing my file and i will hear back in a few days.
im guessing meg would be a little busy at the moment...
ok im crazy excited/thrilled/feeling like im flying to neverland...maybe....
i still think the clock is ticking of bad news....so its a roller coaster
