I know plenty of people have written stories about The Disney College Program, but I'd like to share my journey with you.
When I was little, I wanted to be a Disney princess -- all my life from the time I actually understood television -- I have watched, loved and been obsessed with Disney, Disney Channel, and all the different things that go into the category.
Well now I'm in the second year of college and doing what college students do. I was searching the internet, and I stumbled across the Disney Professional Internship.
So, I was extremely interested. A few weeks later, my friends and I went out for two of their birthdays (the twins, C and S). I mentioned it to them, and to my greatest surprise, C was interested too. We decided we would apply together in Spring 2019 for Fall/Fall Advantage 2019.
So, if you've never heard of the program, it's the best thing ever -- at least in my opinion. You get to live on Disney property and work for them while sometimes hanging out with some of your favorite characters. You get the opportunity to earn money and take classes. In all honesty, it is one of those places where they do not want to fail.
So, as my initial application is due in a year, I started to research, and let me tell you something: there is too much information out there on the subject. A lot of people have pros and cons, but many people all agree it's what you make it.
C and I have watched so many Youtube videos, we haven't even applied and it's already scaring us half to death. Who's to say this isn't going to be the best and most life-changing thing to happen to us?
They say the application process is a lot of work. It's being careful about what you say, and it is an extremely long waiting game. Prepping yourself for the entire application process is a long road.
You have to update your resume to make sure you remember everything you have done in your lifetime. There is finding out the best way to fill out your Web Based Interview. You don't want to mess that up or you won't make it to the final round. From what I've heard, in the final round, the Phone Interview is the roughest of the rough because there are plenty of things that can go wrong,
Anyway, I am so excited to start this journey. You guys won't be alone for the ride -- this is only the beginning!
