I know that the part time folks work with IATSE but that's all I know. Still in the starting process so I am learning. I do know there is an IATSE crew down here and there are opportunities for live show stuff but that's nothing to do with disney haha

I live on the border of Polk and Osceola - just moved here about a month ago. Everything in the area is HOA. My wife and I rent. I can't speak to the teaching aspect, but the area is decent. The closer you get to Davenport/Kissimee the nicer it gets. Just start looking early in the year...

Agreed about the resume. I also had a very non-traditional recruitment/interview process. I was given a job offer at USITT this past year in Ohio - it turns out that was the first year they were allowed to actually complete the interviews and offers at the conference (I have been told everyone...

Just thought I'd update for anyone who was curious. Got everything finalized and I have Traditions this Saturday. Thank you to everyone for your help.

My wife and I just came from Detroit to Kissimmee... it was a bit of a crazy transition, but we are also renting a house - not purchasing. I'll answer questions about renting if anyone wants to message me.

Thanks for the help folks - we just closed on a house in Poinciana and I start in two weeks. It's been a bit of a crazy process getting there, and I hear it is a bit crazy once I'm there, but I am excited. Also Soundad - thanks for your service. Always good to hear from a fellow vet. Break a...

I'm looking to move with my family in late august - I will be in magic kingdom. Do you like Kissimmee? Is it fairly affordable?

No I understand the pay and benefits, but it's very different from things I've read and heard online so I want to make sure I wasn't seriously low-balled. I wasn't expecting the interview (last minute decision at USITT to visit the booth) so I wasn't able to do much research. I know the...

Not fake I promise - I can post a picture of my letter. Also wondering where the best place to find a rental house would be - we have two dogs and a cat - I know many places are picky about those types of things. Our budget is fairly small too. Edit: I've been told I will be at Magic Kingdom...

Hello! Forgive me if this shouldn't be posted here. I have tried to do some research on the internet and these forums, but the secrets seem to be kept safe. I was recently hired by Disney as an ENT Stage Tech while I was at USITT2015. I do not start until September, and I was really hoping to...
