U.K January 2010 Applicants

hmmmmmmmmm......I posted something and dont know where it went?

 

Ok, start again........

Applied for Disney, got a telephone interview tomorrow at 12.15pm with Hannah, Im soooooo nervous!

Any ideas about what I can say? I want to know how to word the answer about why I want to work in Disney.....

Any tips?

HELP.............

 

TOP TIP : Smile they'll know.

 

I got rejected straight out last time, so I'm ecstatic about getting a phone interview this time round

My cv is pretty much the same, updated one or two dates and redid part of my cover letter - but what I submitted was really similar to the stuff I sent in back in August. It's difficult to know what they are looking for since so many good people get passed over

For some reason I've decided to have my interview next tuesday...I'm now going to be a nervous wreck for the rest of the week :-\

Good luck to everyone!

 

i wanted my interview as soon as i could so i wasnt freaking out 2 much over it 4 a longer period of time id hav been a state lol

my panic is over wether or not i hav signal on my mobile cos i dont know the landline in work lol cos thers so many n weve jus moved so duno if its changed!!!!!!!!!! oh and 2day we had 2 power cuts, yesterday a fire alarm and last fri a power cut and previously a burst water pipe im guessing chances of me havin a normal day r slim!!! freaking

 

debz- don't worry, I'm sure if there are any problems they would allocate you a new time.

I'm sure you'll all do fine...as I didn't find it difficult. I just found it hard to know whether I was saying the right thing :-S

Good Luck x x x

 

lol aaggghhhh! im so excited!!!!!

 

Yeah the weirdest feeling was when she said "you could be out there any time after june" that made the stomach tingle!!! x x

 

omg reali june??? wow thats less than 6months if they offer that wow!

so wot did they ask u? who interviewed u?

when r u available to go?

 

What did they say to you on the telephone interview? What did you say when they asked why you wnated to work for WDW?

Im soooooo nervous.... Ease my pain

If I can remember correctly, and my last interview with yummy was years ago, they ask you basic questions about how you cope with the heat, if you get on well living with other people, maybe a bit about your current work/experience and maybe a scenario question (if (a) happened what you do?).

Everyone's interview is always slightly different though, and I think that they sometimes ask something about your home town on the crp interviews because if you do get the job you'll be representing your country.

About the "why do you want to work for disney" question...I have no idea Just be honest I suppose.

 

hey mhairi wen do u hav ur fone interview?

 

Here's what they asked me for ICP 09. It will be slightly different, but similar questions must pop up because living, working, and the people are all the same.

~ Confirm my details, E-Mail Address, D.O.B, University &Course, Nationality

~ What departure date I would like.

~ Do I have any tattoos or body piercings?

~ Am I ok about sharing a room/bathroom with others from different nationalities?

~ Would I be able to cope with long hours, 5/6 day weeks all out in the heat?

~ On a scale of 1-10 how well do I get along with people I work with?

~ Why do I want to work at Disney?

- In new situations how do I adapt?

- Did I have any questions?

nervous now

 

thats really helpful - thank you! Eeeeeek! Im soooooo nervous!

 

Lou, have to let us know how your interview goes!! Im an hour after you, i will be on here panicking! haha

 

next tuesday :-\

nervously looking forward to it

 

Belle - I will let you know as soon as! Its amazing how nervous I am about it, Im normally fine with interviews, but from what I have read on here...... It seems really difficult to get accepted, guess I must be a lucky first time applicant!

Fingers crossed for you too, who knows we may work together soon xx

 

Right, it was with chloe...I think...and my questions were something like:

is your passport uk, do you have any tattoos, do you have any piercings

why do you want to work for wdw (I just said stuff about putting into practice the skills I've learnt at uni)?
what do you do at the moment? what degree do you do (because I mentioned I was at uni)? do you enjoy it?
what motivates you?
how would you deal with living in Florida?
How would you find sharing a room?
If you were a disney character who would you be?
When have you had to deal with a difficult customer?
When are you available to start?
Tell me a bit about your hometown.

Yeah she said the positions are for any time after june. I graduate on the 29th June so hypothetically could go from then on. She also said that there had been so many applications etc.

I hope that makes you feel less nervous, if anything I'd say I was too prepared- like I could predict some of the questions before!

Love x x

 

thanks everyone - wish me luck.........................Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!
