Waitlisted ...

I've added you on FB Sarah

 

Hey guys!

Another fellow waitlistee here *sigh* but at least we haven't been rejected! Another loooong wait ahead of us, i'm getting good at being patient now lol.

Congrats everyone for getting this far still, still done super well considering all the competition - so here's to hoping we all get to Epcot ;D

Dan

 

I'm on the wait list too. so hope i end up going. just to wait now!!! boo x x x

 

oh add me on facebook waitlisters charly jo lambert charlyjo89@gmail.com x x x

 

I can't find you on FB search Charly. Try adding me? Megan Thorne picture is me with a jumper on and the hood looks like a panda lol. xoxo

 

found you. you know steph. I was born in high wycombe!! small world!!

 

Haha that's crazy! It really is a small world after all

 

I kno some people did get a no and there is a lot of people that don't even use the forum that I don't know about their result.
So I am happy with my result, just more waiting but it's ok i can wait. ;D

 

Hi guys,

I've been waitlisted as well :/ I was completely gutted at first, but now I'm just hoping that we all get dates! You never know, some of us may end up out there before some of the people with confirmed dates now!

No movement with the Op List then I see? Doesn't appear as though anybody has been rejected off the forum and neither does there seem to be many waitlistees hmm.. Hopefully it means this wait will be over and done with soon if there aren't many of us to get through. P-M-A!

But in the meantime hello to Disneyland Hong Kong for Dan next month, woo woo!! Fingers crossed it will keep my mind of things and looking forward to something

How's everybody coping with the news so far?

Dan

 

You're going to DisneyLand Hong Kong, Dan? If so, that's absolutely amazing!!! Hope you have a lovely time.

Yeah, there doesn't appear to be any movement, however, I doubt there will be until yummy have recieved acceptance of the program.

I've emailed Hannah asking a few questions, but no reply yet. I'm hoping it's just because they'll be really busy. If not, I might give a ring on the 23rd or something. I really don't want to hassle them though.


Hope everyone's coping, being on the waitlist. Kind of feels like I'm in limbo at the moment, but I'm not stressing though.

 

Hey El

Yep I'm off out on the 22nd, having a sunshine break in Dubai then off to Hong Kong straight after so it should be super fun! It's only a miniature MK, with a 'Snow White' castle rather than 'Cinderella' castle so I've heard, but I'm sure it will be magical all the same ;D

I keep telling myself that too, maybe they'll be in touch after the reply date. I think it's this Friday the deadline and I'm sure there will be some people who's circumstances make them change their mind with such far away dates being dished out, so fingers crossed we may be next on the list! I emailed Hannah asking a few questions too but I'm sure they'll be busy getting everything sorted like you say - checking every 10 mins on my phone for a reply lol.

But on the bright side being in limbo is better than being blown out the water all together with a rejection

 

Absolutely Dan. I think I would have been completely heart broken, had I have recieved a rejection.


Sounds awesome, all the same. Very jealous. Always wanted to visit the Hong Kong one.

 

I was thinking about e-mailing Hannah but wasn't sure how to word everything I wanted to say!! But i've heard the deadline conformation day is Friday aswell so I might wait till then.
Although with having the day off tomoz i'll probs check my e-mail that many times for news that i'll enevitably write one checking how the opp list works, how long we could be on it for and what the chances we will all get off it are?!?

From reading posts from previous application processes it sounds like most if not all of us will eventually get to go!! Fingers crossed for everyone!!

P.s I'm very jealous that you're going to Disney Hong Kong Dan!! Hope you have a fab time!

 

It says in our email we're on the list until March 2011, then Disney/Yummy will let us know either way.

 

they will keep you "on the list" until march next year - at that point they will most likely ask you to reapply during the next round of applications HOWEVER its more likely that you will get offered places before that happens. People who have already got confirmed places will sometimes back out at the last minute for whatever reason, and some people over there will get sent home etc and thats where the wait list comes in, you guys are there to fill in the spaces for anyone who gets fired, self terms or declines there place on the program before they actually leave,but they have to put some sort of time limit on it or else they would have loads of people just waiting for a call....!!!! but fingers crossed that you guys get to go over and that you get a full year over there

 

yeh i wanted to email some questions. what questions did people ask?
and from that last comment, we might not get a whole year? is that true?

charly x

 

Yeah basically if you are taken off the waitlist to fill a space due to someone self terming or being fired then you only get to stay for the remaining time left on their orginial visa and contract, that's the downside of the waitlist I'm afraid, sometimes they pull people off and give them a full year as normal but that's only when they need extra staff (If the park gets very busy for example)

 

Hi guys,

Just wanted to let you know that the Op list is moving! Hannah rang me today and offered me a place starting in a few weeks! There's hope for all of us, so I'll hopefulyl see you guys sooner than you think xxx

 

This is no longer true. I asked Hannah at the interview, she said in very very rare cases someone may fill in someones visa. However now, all on waitlist get a full 12 months as you get your own visa.
