Applying for the CRP in January 2011 anyone???

Hehe thank you!! Although I honestly have noooo idea what I end up rambbling on about half the time! Haha! Its fun tho

 

Igh, this makes me nervous...

I'm applying for the first time this January, and I'll be writing my cover letter as soon as school ends, but I've heard of some people who went with me on Summer ICP '09 and got rejected when they applied for CRP. :C

 

yeah people get rejected from the CRP all the time even when they may be perfect for the job or have worked for disney before, there really doesnt seem to be any set idea of who they want - it seems to be very much luck of the draw at the end of the day...but, you have to be in it to win it as they say so just apply and see what happens!!!

 

Are the references on your CV important? Does anyone know if they contact the references? I should probably update mine if they do ...

 

On my CV and I know others just wrote " References available upon request."
I just kept note of all my previous jobs inc numbers & addresses as later on in the process you need that information for a form you fill in online pre F2F interview. Also no they don't check your previous employment. Unless if its Disney & that's only to check your rehire status. I think there's too many applicants & too little times to be checking references once the final interviews are done.

 

so its still very likely that u will get rejected? even thought ,say, I was an ICP in 2009,thats horrible hahaha

 

so Its still very likely that I get rejected even thoguh I was an ICP of 2009?WOW~~u know stories like this?haha thanks

 

I just did my phone interview with Kristen of Yummy Jobs! It felt like I went well hopefully I'll get an interview and be working at Disney in July - December 2011

 

all im saying is that just because you have worked at disney before doesnt mean you will automatically get a job there again and yes, i know of a lot of people who have done programs before and completed them and then applied to disney again and been rejected straight away, it really doesnt help your application if you have been before!

 

I think it's harder on people who have done the [programme before during the interview process because you have to justify more your reasons for wanting it and why you should get a space as opposed to someone who hasnt been before and you also have to show what you would gain from it and what disney would gain from you so a bit more tricky :S

 

Thank you,I get it~~Its the quality u have that matters,not the pre-working experience.But anyway working for Disney before is not a bad thing anyway~~~haha~~Thanks~

 

Yeah 2nd go round is much more difficult so if you can get it you must have said or done something right. Im in the process of reapplying right now as well. Will find out in a bout 2 weeks if I get to have an interview or not

 

yeah~~that makes sense~we have to think of a tricky reason to justify our reasons~~so u were in the International College Programm???haha

 

Thanks~~ now im working on being tricky at F2F haha,thats very helpful

 

Haha yes I can definately say that's true from personal experience of being Wait Listed twice before. So I've had a break now and I'm back for the third time.

 

so i'm guessing you weren't successful in getting off the waitlist and going out there? how long were u on the weightlist for?

 

Hi Marianne,

that's right I didn't get off of the Wait List either time :'( and was on there the full time it took for the next round of applications to open up, then of course the Wait List ends.

I was one of very few (that I know of from these forums) that didn't make it off the list ???

 

Don't think i've wrote on this post yet,
