Telephone interview for early 2011

Ahh my interview is in half an hour!! Getting a little nervous lol

 

Good luck!

You'll be fine as soon as your talking to them, they're really nice

 

so this means that they are looking for people to go over up until the end of june next year? it sucks that youve just missed it by a month, seeing as you wanted july, that sucks for you! :-\

 

I asked Nick what the recruitment span was for i.e. I said you guys are recuruting for starts from feb - aug 2011 arent you? and he said no we are recruiting feb-jul but we would cosider people who want to start later

I guess they are recruting in 4 month clumps then rather than half yearly - i suppose that means if you dont get through you can reapply in 8 months rather than 12 which is good to know

 

Just got off the phone with Hannah, she was really nice and we ended up having a random chat about seagulls lol. Fingers crossed that it went ok!
She said they are still taking applications until September 6th so we won't find out until Mid- Late September. Man the wait is going to kill me!!
Good luck everyone else who has their interviews in the next couple of days!

 

I just finished with Hannah! She was lovely!

Noones interview could of started worse then mine - I was cut off not once, or twice but THREE times from Yummy Jobs. Today is the day BT decided to work on my road - so I had to run out and beg them to hurry up as i was having the single most important call of my life!!

Luckily Hannah was really nice & phoned me back about 4.20 and we had a really good chat, few giggles and luckily questions I had prepped for! Was talking to her for a good 20 minutes - she said over 900 people have applied so far , most wont get the phone interview (oh dear) & that once the deadline closes we will find out soon after & to keep an eye on emails and phones.

So GOOD LUCK all those left to have their interviews & I hope your phone lines are clear!

 

Ooookk! I'm getting soo nervous now! Everyone else seems like they was talking to the yummy people for longer than I was and seemed to just generally have a laugh and talk random things where as mine was just the interview, answered the questions given, and said our farewells ! :/ getting worried now

 

so form 900 applicants i reckon they probably will do around 600 interviews and then f2f probably around 400 eep could be completely out but remembering how many were at my last one thats about right

to the person who asked how many spaces there were (think it was this board!) they never tell you. but if theres around 100 people at disney at any given time and your looking at a 4 month period where around 10-20 start finish each month then probably around 80ish people which seems about right cvos when i originally applied i was told itsd around 3/4-1 when you get to the f2f stage for the jobs but some people drop out when the costs start coming in and some people drop out when they are fofered a job cos they have a few different things ongoing so yeah anyways rambling now

and eep really unlucky being cut off so much but I bet you get through - espeically if you kept your cool and stuff - disney expect you to e adaptable and able to deal with any situation in a calm friendly way

 

It just depends on the interviewer and what sort of day they are havving when they interview you - dont stress about it - first time round thats exactly how mine was and it onily lasted 10 minutes and i got through to f2f and out there - this time round with a different person it was about 25 minutes and tonnes of questions and little asides etc

you never know how you have done until they tell you keep positive

 

Yea I guess your right, plus mine was one of the first few (last thursday) so guess they didn't wanna waste time for other interviews by going on chatting about anything and nothing lol. Well that's how I'm gonna see it anyway

 

They were probably saving the whole chatting thing for when they meet you face to face at the in person interview


about 3 weeks til we hear anything - man this is worse than waiting for xmas!

 

I guess it's just that time old tradition of playing the wait and see game, as much as we all hate waiting

 

aah guys I'm getting so nervous now! worrying about stupid things like what if the doorbell rings and my dogs start barking while I'm on the phone lol!
also worrying about the fact that I have to work all day long before my interview! really hope the kids i work with are easy on me! lol
been thinking over and over again what I'm going to say, what I'm going to talk about.
glad to see that I'm not the only nervous one!! lol xxx

 

Dont be nervous both people i have interviewed with whilst being different were really friendly and di try and put me at ease - also they are used to interviewing people so they are used to peoples nerves and stuff

 

dont worry, last time my phone interview lasted about 10 minutes and i thought i had done really badly but then at the end of the call she asked me to go for the f2f! dont try and over analyse it, you can never tell really and youve no idea either what everyone elses were like so dont panic!!

 

Yeah I'm really over analysing now! When I finished I felt quite positive but the more I read about what other people have talked about and think back over my answers I can't help but wish I'd said this thing, or said that thing differently. I think I've come down from all the adrenaline now so maybe not as chirpy as I was earlier!
This wait is going to be absolutely awful! I suppose it's only about 3 weeks away which really isn't that long but it still is going to feel like forever. Plus, after today I want to go now even more than ever!

 

That was me! Lol. Thanks - that's given me a better idea.

 

I have my interview tomorrow with Nick! Really nervous now...particularly since I have to have it in the middle of the work day on my mobile because I'll be nowhere near a landline. Orange had better do me proud and make sure I have signal else I may have a panic meltdown!!

 

i had nick he was really nice and friendly and tried to put me at ease it will be fine

 

Sure you will be fine t-mobile & bt let me down today - but they are very understanding if you get cut off - especially 3 times! Good luck!
