Most IT professional internships pay about that or better. Mind you, if you had a graduate degree you would be paid more.

The college program has start dates that work with school on a trimester schedule. She would need to reach out to them but it is possible to have arrival dates changed to meet a trimeter schedule.

DCP employees are highly valuable to Disney. Generally Disney will not term people unless they're in direct violation. The most often reason people get termed is for housing related issues. People can get termed for roomies issues for example. That is the one difference is that living on...

There is never mandatory over time but full timers have it better. But given it is by seniority, the "bids" for hours means will have the lowest seniority. He will be required to work full time hours, over time is usually given to CPs or cast members who cost less. There is a reason why CPs tend...

Honestly if you want to work at Disney, the best advice I can give you is become good at whatever it is you want to do. Focus less on whether wherever you're going has Disney connections. Become excellent at your selected field, get the certifications or degrees that make you excel. Disney's...

On a side note, rejection notices are usually broad so I really find it hard to believe that they're rejecting you because of your 2006 program. If you're confused, I would contact the PI recruitment email and just ask them straight out now before you start applying since summer 2019 internship...

The summer internships are the most competitive to get though and I am not sure which ones you're competing against. I don't know what Apple means though - is that in a store, office security specific? Industry knowledge of technology in general? Security is an entire field on its own. The...

Usually they are set up with hub access on their first official day of training at their location - training schedules will vary by location- but I remember some people accessing the hub after Traditions but don't quote me on that.

I can't really give you advice about how to get a PI but please keep in mind they're pretty competitive. I did get an IT Security & Compliance PI in spring 2016. Everyone that did an IT PI had not done a CP before, I was the only one. Most of them came from top notch schools and had worked at...

I want to bump this because I would love to hear more recent war stories!

I am not new - I joined this board back after I was accepted as merchandise in spring advantage 2013. I had no idea what the college program was and I had freaked out. So this board gave me all the good information about what I needed to bring and what I could expect moving down there! Then I...

Just keep in mind ADA covers reasonable accommodations. So an unreasonable accommodation at WDW would be to not have to interact with guests ever. What I would do in your situation is think over what your strengths are and look at the available roles. If you know something stresses you out, then...

I really want to clear something up that I disagree with in this thread. The majority of people that end up with professional internships did not do a DCP. While it is completely possible to get a PI doing a CP, from my own personal experience, people are better off focusing and gaining...

That and the fact that these are apartments. Generally there are people living there and still finishing their program, that is the largest reason why you wouldn't be able to. I don't know about painting, as far as I know, they don't do anything between people moving out of apartments.

PIs won't turn you down for doing the CP, so I am not sure where you're getting that from unless you meant in 2006. If you did a DCP recently, then yes a PI can't hire you until you've been back at school for 6 months. The longest someone can be on an internship + DCP is a year. Your 2006 CP...

Like Goofy said, this thread is 4 years old and I am guessing there is another side to the story to most of this. While I have heard of people getting terminated, usually it was due some behavior on the other person's part. Follow the rules and be careful, generally you won't get termed. I don't...

To clarify, these personality assessments aren't really meant to be personality - they're meant to be answered in a way that is customer service oriented. So I wouldn't take them like I would take a Myers Brigg. You should answer the assessment in a way that you would behave at work as if you...

You would want to apply as soon as you hit those 6 weeks that you're allowed to apply. I know someone who worked on the DCL after finishing their DCP. It is a separate company keep in mind. Keep in mind DCL are contract positions - you'll be spending 18 months at sea and working for most of the...

I don't think it was awful. It taught me a lot about customer service. I loved being an expeditor and it was a family there. What I hated most was the hours, I didn't get to participate in many of CP events because I would be getting off work at 6 AM and sleeping until 2 PM just to get enough...

You can't really take classes while doing a PI because they're normal M-F 9-5 PM hours for most professional internships. They're extremely competitive to get. What are the advantages? Experience in your field at a top notch company.
