You can do it

When you go in to interview at Casting, you can request where, when, what... all sorts of things.

But are you certain you want to limit your options?

If you have resort/hotel experience, that will help your chances of landing a similar role in resorts. Or perhaps you have some retail sales experience and would be interested in working at a resort merchandise location.

Keep in mind that within 6 months to a year you should see opportunities to transfer internally. Your good attendance record and positive 90-day feedback will help you transfer to your available choice.

Early fall may not be the time of most abundant opportunities... since most hiring occurs just before, not after, peak attendance periods. Still, please don't be discouraged because other factors can always come into play (college and international program cast leaving, new locations such as Pop Century opening... and turnover, which no one can predict.)

I'm not a resorts or recruiting 'expert', and so would invite you to call the JobLine for more information at (407)828-1000. Good luck!
