Standing Out

[GoofBall06]

So it's been my DREAM to work for Disney and I plan on applying next year ( i have to take certain courses for my major before i can apply for any internship). I really want to stand out to Disney so I can become accepted. What does Disney typically look for an a future employee? Does it depend on what clubs your in, your grades, etc?

Also, I was looking over the descriptions of the roles. Is it common for someone to become a Vacation Planner? Of all of them, that would be right up my alley! Of course, working at another role would be just fine!

thanks for the help

Someone who can stand up !

Seriously, they are always in need of able bodies.

It's not hard at all to stand out (because there are so many average applicants). Here are a few tips...

- Attend a presentation even if you plan to wait a semester or more before you actually apply. Meet the Recruiter and Campus Reps.
- Small talk with Reps at info tables around campus and ask any questions you have.
- Show up early to your presentation and small talk with the Recruiter and Reps.
- Wear business-casual attire to the presentation/interview.
- Resumes are impressive. A few even go as far as bringing letters of recommendation... but that is unnecessary.
