DCP Interview Process Complete

Hey guys!

SO.. I have finished my interview process for the Disney College Program. WHAT A RELIEF! I can't describe to you the weight lifted off my shoulder. A lot of people have been asking how the Phone Interview (PI) went, so I thought I would share.

Here goes, to the best I can remember

My call was like 12 minutes late
My interviewer name was John, he was great. Much nicer than the last time I applied and he even chuckled a couple times when I answered. Definitely a good sign (Last time my interviewer had no apparent interest in me or what I did)
The questions he asked were:
Why do I want to work for Disney?
Am I receptive to covering my tattoos with stage makeup or long sleeves?
Do I have a valid driver's license and unrestricted work access in the US?
How do I feel about working inside/outside? How do I feel about the extreme weather conditions?
How do I deal with interruptions?
Do I prefer to work alone or with a group?
 How do I feel about speaking in front of large groups and reciting memorized information?
 Have I ever lived with roommates?
How did I feel about living with roommates?
What were my top role choices?
Would I be interested in working Custodial and Quick Service Food & Beverage (QSFB)?
 If I were the first person someone were to be greeted by in the park what would I do to make them feel special?
Which park location did I prefer (Florida/California)?
Was I fully available to work (7 days a week, including holidays and weekends?
Asked if I was okay with the pay amount (minimum wage up to $10 something)?
What was my previous work experience?
What made me qualified for the positions I wanted?
Was I clear on the Disney guidelines and able to adhere to them?
How do I prioritize my work?

There may have been a little more, but I can't remember at the moment. Most of our conversation was me speaking about previous work experience and how I deal with things now.

My interview lasted 22 minutes and I actually felt good about it when I got off the phone whereas last time (when I was not accepted) I felt that I had so much more to say and no time or place to say it.
I strongly feel that you need to TAKE the opportunity to bring up your strong areas with examples when they ask about work experience because they are not going to ask about it necessarily.

I had a whole page of notes and my good/bad qualities and things like that.... They didnt ask a single question that I had on that paper. I definitely think it is in your best interest to OVERprepare for this so you feel confident with an "I can do this!" attitude. It will make all the difference for you.

If you have any questions please feel free to comment and ask! Also, good luck to you all!

Thanks!
