I feel your pain as I have done a cross country move on my own dime. I was living in Arizona at the time and was being considered for two jobs and one of the two was actually for The Walt Disney Company in Orlando. Unlike your experience though Disney was going to offer me full relocation...

Appreciate the response!! I'm really looking forward to it. :)

I'm planning a Disney cruise and I went through the entire booking process until I got to the point of supplying my credit card info and noticed that at no point was I asked what my preference was for bed. According to the Disney cruise DVD I have you can pick whether you want two twin beds or...

I was an IT intern in the summer of 2000. Will you be stuck behind a desk? Depends really on where you will be working and what you will be doing. I worked in support of an upgrade to an HR database system and once we went live with the system I spent more time answering/solving trouble...

MKFan, please send me a PM and we can talk that way. landauh, there is no "centralized" number to call like there is with the service jobs in the theme parks. You are doing the right thing by submitting your resume. If they feel your qualifications match what they are looking for then you...

Ha! Yeah it's like a running joke with these recruiters. They are never at their desk. And you do likewise. :)

Congratulations!! My stint as a professional intern was something I'll never forget. I hope you have just as positive of an experience. Best of luck!

Sorry for the late response but it is a job in IT (information technology). Today marks two weeks since the interview and am still waiting to hear back. Last week I called on Thursday and got voicemail again indicating that she would be out of the office Wednesday through Friday. This Monday...

Just don't lose hope. If this is what you really want don't lose hope. I graduated in December of 2002 and have been trying to get a job at Disney ever since then. I also had an internship (just one though -- am jealous of your two!) and while I was an intern I foolishly thought it would be...

I can definitely relate as I feel the same way after my interviews yesterday. I hope you get good news! Best of luck.

Well so I had the interview yesterday ... well interviews actually. In the morning the professional recruiter interviewed me for about a half hour. She asked some generic questions like why I wanted to work at Disney and what my career goals are and whatnot. The interview went pretty well...

So great news, guys! I got in touch with another recruiter there and she sent an e-mail to the recruiter that called me telling her to give me a call. I waited several hours and kept on thinking how it was stated here that I shouldn't leave messages until I get ahold of someone. Well I was...

Thanks, I'll do just that.

I'm pretty disillusioned on the whole thing now. I can understand needing to fill a quota for positions that are in the parks and/or the college program but a professional position is considerably different (or at least should be). There are a number of requirements you have to meet in order to...

You've got to be kidding me. That's too unprofessional to believe. Why would the recruiter even bother leaving their phone number? And say they want to schedule an interview? Why even bother leaving a message? That's just crazy. ETA: And from past experience when I was hired as an...

I've been trying to get a professional position at WDW for the longest time. Well finally this past Monday (February 27) I got a call from a professional recruiter and she said she received my resume against a specified position and to give her a call to schedule an interview. I immediately...

I was a professional intern back in the summer of 2000 and it was $15.00/hour. I was either a sophomore or a junior at the time. Each summer you return the hourly rate is increased. Now with inflation and whatnot I'm sure that hourly rate is higher.

Wow. So hard. 1) One of my last days as a cast member, the team I worked on took me out to eat at the 50's diner at MGM and afterward we rode the Rock'N'Roller Coaster. 2) When I was in high school I was a member of chamber choir (about sixteen of us) and we were invited to do Christmas...

Love this show! Keep up the great work! Have you guys listened to the official Walt Disney World podcast? I'm not crazy about the content (I think it will improve) but the production value is top-notch (well it had better be right?).

Reading this had me thinking about the store they used to have in Downtown Disney that had a kitchen theme. I loved that store.
