I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Walt Disney Company (Fayetteville, NC) in Sept 2014
Interview
I applied online on Sept. 5th and received a call on the 9th to come in for an interview; she didn't say it was going to be a group interview though. The interview was on the 16th in the back office with about seven other people. We were each asked a "Disney Trivia" question, then we had story time where we each took turns reading a page from the book "Frozen".
I recieved a phone call a few hours later to come back on the 20th for my second interview; this time is was one-on-one with the store manager. She asked me to put certain events in order of importance then asked some behavioral question ("name a time when..." type questions).
Brief, engaging, and very relaxed. The former manager was so easy to talk to. She definitely made me so excited to work at the store, and it was so sad when she left.
I applied online. I interviewed at Walt Disney Company (Santa Monica, CA) in Aug 2020
Interview
As soon as I got there I was told to go to the side so I don’t bump into anyone (social distance basically). I had no problem waiting outside, I also didn’t want to be in the way. As soon as I go inside the guy tells me I “looked quiet”. First of all I understand this job requires communication but when I’m told to wait and keep my distance with no one around, who was I supposed to talk to, the window? I really didn’t like that and I had to explain that yes I was quiet but because there’s no one to talk to. Then the guy first asks about my availability and I had full availability, but he refused and said my availability wasn’t ideal for the position. Then he asked about my previous job and cut me off. That’s it. I went online a day before to see what type of questions they ask and prepared my answers for the common ones, but all he asked was my availability. A waste of time. I highly disliked that he didn’t proceed to ask questions about me and also jumped to assumptions based on my behavior. Don’t think of ever going there again, I used to be a regular customer. I got hired at another place for the same type of position, which asked for about the same qualities.
