Role Change

[woohoo1103]

I know that once you accept your role for the CP program that you cannot change, but I was wondering if you could audition for a character role again once you get down there. And if so, could you switch your role if you made it? I auditioned, but did not make it and I am now in Operations for Fall, but I was unsure how this would work if I wanted to try again. Thanks!

I'm not sure, but I've heard of people doing it. One of my friends worked quick-service food and beverage and became special friends with Mickey. In his spare time could pick up parade shifts, but I think he was replaced later on (thank goodness before summer hit), so it might be unstable. Maybe Mickey just really needed more amigos. Who knows?
:shrug:

Once you have a role you can not switch (except in certain reasons). However, if you plan on extending the CP you can go to the audition for extending the program.

As a CP, you can get promoted. That does happen. Seen several CPs move up to Guest Relations or into some sort of backstage-ish role like money handling or resort operations.

You can audition.

If you are cast, you can switch into the entertainment role, but they will ask you to extend your program.

If you're a Monorail Pilot, just hit the stick to P-5, get 3 MAPOs, and the next morning you will be working at Kilimanjaro Safaris. :ROFLOL:

I don't know if things have changed since I was there, but when I was a CP in 2003, I wanted to transfer to entertainment. They told me that I couldn't until my program was over. So I did, and they didn't ask me to extend my program, I just became full time when I transferred.

I also did my CP in 03.
I auditioned and was cast, but was told that if I wanted to transfer to entertainment that I would have to extend until January. That would've made my program an entire year long, so I said no thanks!

Yeah, that's how it was for me. You can't transfer until after the original progrm is over.

I must've misunderstood what they told me. They probably meant that after August, I could go into Entertainment. I completely misinterpreted! I've been misinforming people for years - oops!
