I literally just finished my phone interview! I feel like I can finally breathe, I was a nervous wreck up until the phone rang. My interviewer was Lindsey and she was so sweet and bubbly. First and foremost we went over my application to verify that everything was correct and of course went over the disney look. Then, she asked me about my listed job experiences- what my tasks were, how I liked them, etc. She then asked my about my role preferences and we talked mainly about my top 2 choices. I listed Character performer as my top choice and she wants to make all hopeful CP's aware that they are mostly auditioning for fur characters as they don't accept many face characters, which I understood. She asked about my theater and dance experience and went on to ask how I felt about being in a hot, limited vision, limited movement costume and I said I was okay with it. After that she invited me to an audition and said I will probably recieve more information regarding the auditions within the weeks prior to it.
Next, we discussed my second choice, BBB. She wanted to state that BBB is the most competitive role being that there aren't a lot of spaces available. She asked if I had any experience styling and while I don't have salon experience I do have hair and makeup experience so I told her. She gave me a scenerio question "what would you do if a little princess was hesitant to get made over?"
We very briefly discussed attractions and if I had a problem talking infront of groups. She then asked if I favored any particular park, part of a park, or attraction to work at and I said Magic Kingdom is my favorite place ever, of course. The interview lasted 28 minutes but it didn't seem that long at all. I think a lot of it was her going through the required spiels, haha. For those who are still waiting for their phone interview- the worst part is the suspense, trust me! Feel free to ask me any questions, and Good luck to everyone!
Application Day!
Wednesday, August 18, 2010
It's been awhile since I last posted- but that's because I've been playing the waiting game for applications to open. Today the wait was over! Applications opened this morning and I immediately rushed to get mine started. To those who are concerned about the web based interview- it's no big deal! So breathe, haha. Honestly some people have made it out so it seems impossible to pass but just remember to be honest and consistent with your answers and you should be fine. There are a few timed questions but you should be able to answer in plenty of time.
After I finished I called and scheduled my phone interview. She asked if I preferred morning or afternoon and I took the first afternoon time slot tomorrow (12:30 EST Aug. 19th). I will be sure to update when i'm finished and in the meantime i'm going to look over posts from CP alumni that have shared what kind of questions they ask. I've already started making a little note sheet of things I want to make sure to mention and questions to ask.
So until tomorrow afternoon i'll probably be internally freaking out, but it's so surreal that this entire process has finally started!
