You mean the Application send end period?? Then TDO has to go through them, call/interview people, then hire and train.... I'm no boss so no clue how long all that takes.Those are test and adjust cast. The opening team application period ended only last week.
1 thing new since this morning: Someone Tweeted WDW about the 28th and WDW responded with no date.... IDK if that makes TC right or wrong...
