So if you go to disneycollegeprogram.com and hit the apply button up to the right then you can get the process started. First you fill out an application and then if they like you then send you an email telling you to do the web based interview. I'm pretty sure they let everyone do the web based interview unless you're like an Ex con murderer or something. The web based interview is just a bunch of questions. They say to tell the truth but you know everyone picks the answer that they think we sound the best. So If that interview goes good you get another email telling you to schedule a phone interview.
The phone interview is a little nerve racking. My advice would to go to a place away from everyone that is quiet about 15 minutes before they call you. They call you and it is a blocked number so don't ignore it! Also, tell people that tend to call and text you a lot to back off for that half hour just so you are uninterrupted. The best advice I can give you is to smile. They can hear your smile even though they can't see you. They want happy people... obviously. Also, don't be afraid to ask questions. I don't know if they always ask the same things but they asked me about my work experience and my personality and what my top 3 choices for positions would be. They also asked me to tell about a time when I was in a tough situation at work. I don't actually know if I did good on the phone interview though because I got in through auditioning.
I would suggest to go to auditions even if you think you can't dance or you think you don't look like any of the characters because I felt that way and I still made it! I don't actually find out my character until I got there in August but that's fine. This is what you do at auditions. You get a number, they measure you, teach you a short dance you do infront of judges, (if they liked you) you fill out an audition form, they teach you a harder dance you do in front of judges, (if you might look like a character) they keep you and take pictures of your face, then you go home! My advice would to be friendly with the other people there, smile even if you mess up your dance, wear comfy clothes, and be really animated. That's the other thing! Before the dances you have a certain amount of counts that you are "animated". They give you a senario like planting a tree and you have to act it out. eat before you go and bring water and maybe even a few snacks with you be cause you sit and wait a lot of the time. And JUST HAVE FUN! Even if you don't get in you will be grateful for the experience.
After all that you wait and wait and wait and finally you get that heavenly email that says congratulations!!! It's so exciting.. i might have cried. I am so excited! Anyways... I'll keep you updated on that and the other things in my oh so exciting life!
