    Dont worry can answer ya questions!!
    They will generally just ring you out of the blue (but will ask if its ok to chat now, if not then they are more than happy to plan a time to ring within the next few days) This was were i went wrong! I ended up being flustered and had no little notes with me. So im def gonna arrange a time with them. Where are you from? Its good to do a lil bit of research of your hometown or somewhere nearby. Im from Cardiff and they asked me "What would i tell another disney rep (from another country) is best about my country" So i mentioned a few traditions and facts about Wales and cardiff.
    They also asked:
    What present would i bring to another disney rep that represents my country?
    How would i cope in a situation where i was the only person serving customers and they were complaining about waiting a long period for food?
    How would i cope living with other people who are from completly different cultures and have different traditions to yourself?
    Its a very informal interview, just remember to relax (they know ya nervous) and smile lots on the phone (sounds strange but the guys that are off to disney swear by it!!)

    Any more questions then fire away!! This place is fab for information.

    So how many UK people do we have for the November interviews this time round?

    Does anyone know the number of positions available? Or the answer to life the universe and everything?

    When I got through to the phone interview stage, they emailed me asking the best times to get in contact with me! So i knew exactly when they were calling, which was nice! But maybe you should contact them first to let them know about your hol? I personally wasnt that worried about my phone interview, there was a really nice guy on the phone who was easy to chat too. And the face to face one was really short, I swear it only lasted 5-10 minutes! On both interview they asked me if I like to travel, answer yes to that one folks! I babbled on about all the countries ive visited etc etc! Must've worked cos I got the job and am heading out in a couple of weeks!

    but yeah dont be nervous! just be happy (and smiley for the face to face), they really put you at ease and the recruiters are so easy to talk to, so it's easy to be yourself, which is what they want!
