Does Disney hire people for IS type jobs (networking, databases ect...) with their college program? I'm an information systems major, and a rep is coming to my college on October 14th and I might go check it out. Are there any opportunities with those type of jobs? Thanks :)

Is there a way to get a job that doesn't involve the college program? My college has a co-op program where you work in your feild of study for 6 months out of the year. Do they open up positions for programas like that?

That's basically what an advanced internship is. Working in your field of study/major.

That's the only opportunity that I know of. You are eligible for the above AI if you wish to apply.
