Friday 3Rd June interviews over... now the waiting game to 15th June!

Hey all! How did everyone do? And were there any previous applicants at the interview today?xxxx

 

Hey it went as well as i could have done and they were all so lovely!! But only time will tell they didn't give anything away so its hard to say! How did urs go? Who did u have? Was great to meet everyone!! xx

 

Heyyy! Oh my gosh i can't believe it's over and the wait begins!! not too long though hey! I really can't say how it went, Lisa and I had Jeff and he was soooo nice bless him and made us feel at ease so much. We were just literally chatting away and even spoke about the wedding! hehe. I really hope we all get the opportunity! xxx

 

I think it went well , Well I'd like to hope so. I was quite surprised that they were recruiting for this Sept, that's pretty soon , anyone put in for it ?

 

Hey!!! I cant believe its over I had Jeff he was so nice spoke about my holiday to Ibiza soon and how long hes been working for Disney it was amazing! crazy that a 20 minute interview could decide whether we go or not :s eeek!!! xxx

 

Hell yeah I said I could go tomorrow hahaha. x

 

Haha same!!! I said I could go ASAP!!

Yeah it's so weird how such a short time span can make or break whether we go or not, what could they possibly learn from a ten minute chat!!

Do you think it's true what they said about taking as many people as they want? Or is there a limit on how many can be accepted?

 

I think Disney try to recruit as many as they can even if it means putting them on a waiting list and sending them out 9 months later! If you have the disney spark then they'll try to hire you ;D

 

haha. i did tell them I'm actually going to Diseney on holiday at the end of august til 9th September so i could potentially stay out there hahaha. I#m technically meant to give 6 weeks notice at work but hey what are they gonna do?! lol. I'm going whether they like it or not haha.

Yeahhh I do think it's true and I try to think of the interview as being a sort of 'confirmation' we are what Disney look for. I had a chat with Chloe afterwards and she said there were 1000s of applications received and they had to cut it down to 250 for phone interview and there are around 120 for F2F interviews. PLUS they're looking for September onwards... sooooo lets keep our fingers crossed hey! heehehehe. EXCITEMENT!!

 

I forgot to ask someone about the number of applicants - glad you remembered! That's really interesting. We're definitely the elite bunch

 

We most definitely are What's your instinct telling you?? hehe

On the plus side, apparently we may find out before 15th June xxx

 

Who told you this ...... Spill !


I think the answer on Friday summed it up best , "We shall recruit as many people as possible that live up to the Disney Standards" - Jill ( Friday presentation. )

 

I have taken this quote from several peeps from the group on Facebook. Someone spoke to Chloe after her interview and she implied we'll find out before the 15th........ eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!! However now I feel someone's weed on my chips a bit because they've said they know of people who got rejected after the f2f. sooooo I'm scared now.

 

I'm sure people have in the past been rejected after f2f, Maybe they had amazing Cv's but no personal skills , They interview hundreds of people each time they come across. They know what they are looking for. I've pm'd you my facebook name add me to the Disney group.

 

Also when we were upstairs jason said "we have less people than we usually do at the face to face so hopefully you will all..." and sort of gave us a look if you know what I mean.

I dont know about my interview, I mean it was good and we were told we did well etc but I only got 3 basic questions, I think jeff was aware that the other group were overunning and was trying to make up for it. Also jeff was quite relaxed so it didnt suit the tone of the interview to be hyper etc. Just wished I got better questions, although he said we have nothing to worry about but since im chatty I think I may have done better in with the other interviews but who knows...

 

Really?!?! is that what he said... ooo la la how exciting! I was sat chatting with Jason and Chloe for aaaaaages after my interview and I just thought "hopefully you're taking note of how chatty i am hereeeee" hehe.

Yeah I know what you mean, Jeff asked us like 4 or 5 questions but they were pretty much completely personal rather than asking about our experience. We had a right laugh in ours because Lisa and I were just cracking jokes all the time and he was bantering back. but you just don't knowwwwww :-(

 

Who said that, and where have they heard of the people? I've not seen anyone on here say they've been rejected after the F2F (not that I've gone through every single thread, but still) ... but I suppose as we were saying after the phone interviews, there were people who just never posted on here again. I've just kind of got it in my head that if we seemed friendly and cheery with a little touch of Disney magic, then we'll get a place, regardless of anyone else. If that's not true, I'm not sure what I'll do

 

Ok i've just stalked through the group and it was a Catherine Bass who said Chloe implied we may find out before the 15th and who also knew of people who had been rejected after the f2f.

I have been thinking exactly the same as you, we must be complete tools and a complete fake if we weren't to get offered something from the interview so let's just keep our hopes up :-D I do think it was a chance for them to see our personality and to see if we 'have it' rather than assessing out experience because like has been said, the phone itnerviews etc are to sort through things like that xx

 

*hand up* that's me! And yes, I know previous participants of the CRP program (through my job) and she knew people from her interviews that didn't go through after the f2f... it's always a possibility. HOWEVER, I think that the chances of getting through from this stage are definitely high and I'm generally a glass half-empty person so that if we hear the worst then we're not as disappointed as we would have been if we'd got our hopes up and presumed we're all through. In regards to the date thing - I heard it straight from the mouth of Yummy Jobs that we *might* hear sooner - nothing for definite guys... but we'll all know soon enough.

 

yayyyy that's you!! hehe. it's nice to put a name to a 'name' on here lol. You have got me soooo excited from your knowledge!! I really hope we all do really well!! I just hope our personalities shone through in the interviews because obviously they must have some hope in us for inviting us to a f2f!! Let's keep our fingers crossed I do want to know like, NOW though! hehe. xxx
