I submitted my application on January 20 (nerd much?) and called the next day around 11:30 to schedule my interview. I had to re-dial a few times due to a busy signal, but finally got through. I was on hold for maybe ten minutes or so, but that was okay because the hold music was epic - all park stuff. Basically I want to stream the Disney College Program Interview Line hold music, because I am a dork. My interview is at 7:45 tomorrow evening... woohoo! 24 hours from now I'll probably be staring at my phone and freaking out, not going to lie.
I checked off the following roles:
- Character Performer
- Concierge
- Attractions (Jungle please please please please please?)
- FSFB
- Hospitality
- PhotoPass
Performer, Concierge, and Attractions are definitely my top 3, though. I've talked quite a bit in this blog about why I want to do both performer and concierge, but haven't focused quite as much on attractions. I know it's a bit foolhardy to pin your hopes and dreams on one attraction, but I REALLY want to be a Jungle Cruise Skipper. My interest in creating characters and improv lends itself to that, I think. I know I would be so energized working there - I'm sure I'd have off days and everything, but what a great role, you know?
So I have been compiling a list of interview questions by role, and thinking about how I might answer them. If anyone would like the list, I can definitely e-mail it to you! It includes roles other than just what I checked off, but sadly it's not comprehensive and some roles are left off. Just comment with your e-mail address and I'll send it along.
I'll most likely blog again tomorrow, after my interview. In the meantime, if you have any questions for me please feel free to ask on
my formspring!
