I'm sorry to hear that, I'm used to reading the Accepted threads....

The only thing I can say is to NEVER give up...If you want it bad enough, you will get it.

Hey man, I understand how you feel. I was so ed at Disney when I didn't pass my audition for characters. Don't worry about it..it's not the end of the world. Just keep trying, and you will eventually get it.

Don't give up...if it's your dream, keep applying. I don't know the process for the international program, but I would just make sure when you go to interview that you wear professional dress and keep a big smile on your face. Make sure you are very enthusiastic about Disney and the program...show them that you've done your research and know what's going on. That's my best advice.

Good luck and keep your chin up!

My advice is to not let the dream go and don't give up - basically what everyone else said. Also, spend the next few months researching, researching, researching! Buy yourself some books off Amazon (or the U.K. equivalent), check some out at the library, or get some from the local bookstore. Learn as much as you can about the parks and about the history of the Disney company, Walt Disney, and about the funtionality of the parks themselves. You want to be able to charm the pants out of them when you go in for that interview. Remember, there are probably hundreds of people who interview from your country each year and probably only a handful get chosen, so don't feel bad that you didn't get chosen the first time. Next time go in there with a wealth of information, dressed like a pro, and with a ton of charisma and confidence so you can say to them, "Go ahead and ask me anything you want about the Disney parks!" and let them try to stump you. :wave:

I, personally, will only have ONE shot at applying for a Management Internship over there and my chances/odds are probably slim-to-none since I am a graduating senior and since I am not located in Florida. But if I don't get it, that won't stop me - I'll keep on persuing my dream. It's all about the attitude and thinking like Walt did. Remember, he was born into poverty and look at the empire he has created for himself.

:cry: Sorry to hear it. Look at the application you sent and see if you can improve on it. Most importantly - keep trying and never give up

If at first you don't succeed, try again.

At the risk of sounding harsh, I hope your application was written in full English and not the text speak used in your post. Text speak is not considered cool on an application form and outside of a phone message it's a pain in the to read.

See if you can find out when the next round of recruitment is and go for it. It may also be an idea to reply to the rejection letter and politely enquire what you can do to improve your chances of success for when you re-apply in the future.

Good luck :wave:
