this is a test... am I working?

Well, I officially found out today that I am starting early!! I am checking-in on June 8, and have Traditions on June 9. That means that I have 21 days left!! -Chris

I got an email today that sheds a little more light on the arrival process. I am supposed to arrive at Vista Way sometime between 9am and 12pm. I will not be residing in Disney housing, so I assume that everyone goes to Vista on this day. The email didn't say anything about Traditions, so...

It's been a while since anybody posted here. Has anyone heard any more about the check-in date or Traditions?

Who do you contact about training in other areas for extra hours?

What you do is up to you. An Internship at Disney certainly looks good for future job interviews. But, it's up to you to make sure you make the most of your experience by networking as much as possible.

Many of these comments are true. However, working at Disney in something like an Internship will help you with future roles with other organizations as well. Look at the Rosen College at the University of Central Florida. They have an amazing Hospitality Program--one of the best in the...

I would recommend going to UCF (the University of Central Florida), and enrolling in the Rosen School of Hospitality Management: http://www.hospitality.ucf.edu/ This really is an amazing program! You will learn all about the hospitality industry industry--not just theme parks. Many of the...

I got accepted the first week in April, and have not received anything yet either. I did get an acceptance letter, though. It pretty much said everything that the email said. I also got a call from the person who will be my direct "boss." She is great and very helpful. She told me to call...

Yay! Good for you!

What kind of clubs are there, besides orchestra/choir?

So, does anyone know what people generally wear in office positions? The Disney Look booklet talks about it a little. But I was wondering, do the guys wear ties? Or is it just oxford shirts with a conservative look?

With Scar Junior's information about engineering classes for the CP, it would seem to me to be a "no-brainer" for you to go through the CP first. Networking, contacts; contacts, networking!! This is a great point. More than anything else, Imagineers are creative designers who plan and...

Some PIs require that you have been in the College Program, others don't. I have never been in the CP or worked in any way at WDW, but was still offered a position for this fall. The best thing for you to do is check out the website. If an internship posting says that you must be a CP alum...

Great!! :wave: As I understand, Eyes and Ears is the main newsletter for all of WDW. I think that they told me in my interview that there would be a couple of interns in that area. I hated being in the dark for so long too! However, once I accepted my PI a couple of weeks ago, I got a...

Whew! I'll bet that's a long drive! As we say here in the South, "bless your heart!" As for me, I'll be doing a roadtrip, but mine's just from the rather close-by Georgia! Thanks for making my trip seem not so long!

I am currently a Managerial Supervisor at a Six Flags park. Two years ago, Six Flags went to an online job application survey system. Who knows if this is anything remotely like what Disney uses, but... When the system was new to us, we did not know what to make our "minimum" hiring...

It probably depends on the type of job you are applying for (i.e. Internship, College Program, etc). When I sent in my resume and portfolio for my internship, I was contacted within about three business days by Communication Planning. I did an online application--so I'm not sure if they...

OK, so sorry to keep asking so many questions!! But I have one more... Is is possible to cross-train and pick up extra hours as an intern? Since my letter says I am only guaranteed 30 hours per week, I would like to spend some of my extra time working in either operations, guest relations...

I just got my "official" acceptance letter in the mail! It basically mirrors the email that I got last week, but gives a little more information about the arrival date. It says that the arrival time is between 9am and 12pm on June 22. Also, there will be an email sent out later on that...
