AUGUST 2015 AUS/NZ INTAKE

goodluck lorna! it has been over 1 month since i applied...i still haven't heard anything. hope we all hear something soon!!

 

Has anyone heard back yet???? ...ive heard nothing still....

 

Hi, Still nothing... have my exams this week and next, so at least they are distracting me from the wait a little... haha... i think applications are still open though, so we might not hear anything until they close??? I don't know, it is driving me a little crazy, i feel like its the only thing I talk and think about hah

 

I've heard nothing either, and applied the same day as you jayze
I thought it would take about a month to process, but its a fair while past the month mark now. I know they're coming out after the Easter break in April next year, but I'd still just love to hear if i passed the first stage haha

 

As frustrating as it is, I have read (through my spare time research ) that 'in progress' is what you want to see!!! it means that your application has been viewed and it has been passed on further... apparently. In progress is good, you don't want to see 'your application has been rejected' right? haha

 

Haven't heard anything back yet either! maybe we don't hear anything until its time for interviews?? and i'm sure if our applications were not eligible or something we would have heard something back by now.. hopefully!!!

 

Oh whew..i thought i might not have heard and others had
Im going crazy..checking everrrrrry other day! I so hope we all hear soon..i feel a lot better now!! Thank you all.

 

Hey guys, you won't hear about an interview until about 4 weeks before Jill comes over. You might get asked to upload somethings to a website such as a copy of your passport and a proof of student status form between now and then so don't expect much else. Also the apps for January didn't close until the August apps opened. Go talk to your careers adviser as they usually have a liaison person with Disney and they might be able to tell you when they are coming over. I found out via my uni's career hub about interviews before I heard from Disney. Keep busy watching vlogs and reading blogs!

 

Thanks so much for the info! doesnt make the wait any easier though haha.

 

No worries! I feel your pain. It was exactly five months between applying and finding out about being accepted for me. The wait doesn't get any easier unfortunately but there are only 58 days till I leave now so the wait is worth it!

 

Thank you for the info!!! wow!!! thats a really long wait..
my dashboard has not changed at all..might pop into my uni careers place and ask

 

Hey, Congratulations on getting in!!! are you writing a blog or anything what we can follow your journey Sems?

 

I am! I haven't written anything in ages because I have been super busy with uni work but I will be aiming to blog every second day once I get there http://awholenewworld2015.blogspot.co.nz/

 

Awesome thanks ill be sure to follow your journey. I hope that you enjoy it! and thanks for the info

 

Thank you! If you have any questions about the process feel free to ask 57 days till I leave! x

 

Hi ALL!! i know we've all been waiting for a while, BUT i commented on the disney blog under the international section on the Disney site to ask when we should expect to hear about from a recruiter and they replied with:

"Hello Jayze,
Thank you for your question! Make a note that our in-person interviews will be around March/April of next year. You will receive an update on your application closer to our interview dates.
Thank you once again for your patience and have the happiest of holidays!"

We still have a long wait ahead!!

 

Thanks for the info Jayze. I figured that we will not here anything until the January intake of Aussie/New Zealand Program people are organised and moved in etc. Then they will start to focus on the next lot, makes sense really
I hope that everyone has a safe holidays

 

Hi Guys! I'm about to head over for the Aus/NZ CEP - I leave on Friday! I just wanted to shamelessly plug my blog and vlog because I'm planning to document my time in America. Also, I have a DCP program guide on my blog that I am writing with a specific focus on the process for Aus/NZ participants. So far I have gone through the entire application and interview process which might be helpful for you all I'm trying to get the rest of the guide updated but it might be a bit slow once I head to Disney. I'll definitely be posting regular updates on my adventures though! Good luck to you all and hopefully in six months you'll be packing your bags to head to Disney too!

Hey Bec!!

I've actually been reading your blog since I started my application xD thank you so much for all the info! It's been helpful!

 

Oh I'm so glad that's it's helpful! When I was researching and applying, I found lots of comprehensive stuff on the American program but not much on the Aus/NZ program so I wanted to create the resource I never had for other people. I'm glad it's proving useful
