    Hey guys I just wanted to tell everybody about this e-mail I got from Kristen today. I almost jumped out of my skin with excitement when I saw it in my inbox lol.


    Greetings,

    I hope you are having a Great Summer and are excited about the possibility of going to Walt Disney World next year on the Cultural Representative Program! Within the next 3 weeks, we will be contacting you by phone to get to know you a bit more. This call will be an informal interview that will assist Yummy Jobs in learning a bit more about you and why you would like to go to Walt Disney World.



    As I understand that you may have a summer job that may cause you to miss my call, rest assure, I will still call back! If for some reason you are unavailable when I call, please do email me (kristen@yummyjobs.com) with a preferred contact time or a new number you wish to be contacted on. Or alternatively you may call toll free 1-877-YJ Canada (between 8am- 12pm Eastern Standard Time) and ask for Jason.



    Please do note, that due to requiring a work visa for this program, we will be asking about your passport. If you do not have one, please do apply for one as soon as possible, as you will be required to bring your passport if selected for the final interview with Walt Disney World later this year or early next year depending on your province. If you have any questions about this requirement, please do not hesitate to ask.



    Also, we are proud to say that we are still accepting Resumes for the Cultural Representative Program, so if you have friends that be interested in going to Walt Disney World with you, do feel free to have them submit their resume to me. Do have them quote your name in the email so we are able to ensure that they are contacted for the telephone interviews as well!



    I hope you are as excited as we are for your telephone call, and I look forward to chatting to you soon!



    Have a Magical Day,


    Kristen

    Yummy Jobs



    So now we just have a bit more waiting I guess ;D

    Haha I was coming on here to say the same thing. I got the exact e-mail I was so excited when I got it. Now I will always be looking at the phone, and if I see any number that looks like it could be it...I'll probably pass out! haha But good for all of you guys for also getting it!

    Wow guys you're lucky, we all have to do loads of waiting, and I guess us in the UK have a bit more to do!
    I'm a bit worried and also SO excited for all of us - just that tiny bit closer to the Mouse.

    It's funny I was so looking forward to the summer and didn't want it to end but now I kind of want time to go a bit faster and get this process of getting to Disney going ;D

    And to you guys from the UK and other countries, don't worry I'm sure you'll get an e-mail and a phone interview soon cuz I'm pretty sure that the next chance for everyone to go is Feb 09 so it's only a matter of time. Plus I hope there's as many different people from different places going at the same time. The more the merrier lol ;D

    I think the UK applicants will have their interviews first cuz Yummy jobs was originally for the UK (and other European countries I think) and only recently took over for Cast-a-Way for the Canadian applicants. That's what I'm thinking anyway...

    I JUST HAD MY PHONE INTERVIEW!!! That was exciting and nerve wracking...I am still shaking! But I think it went over well. It was the same questions I read before and she was so nice about everything! Yeah I think it went well and I hope to hear back soon!

    Oh my god Oh my god I JUST had my phone interview too!!!!
    Actually it wasn't that big of a deal but here's how it went...It's seriously less than 5 min. It was Kristen that called. She first confirms your e-mail and if you have a passport then asks why you want to work at Disney, how you'd feel about sharing a room with someone else who may or may not be from our country, if you have a preference for F&N, retail or attractions, when you'd be available to start and something you'd tell someone from another country about Canada. That was pretty much it but she also said that they haven't confirmed exactly where and when the F2F interviews will be cuz they're going to see where the majority of applicants are from and when they want to start etc. then they'll be in touch. She said that start dates will be between Feb and Dec 2009 based on when you have your F2F cuz they're probably either going to start in the east (ie. Toronto and move west (ie.Vancouver) or vice versa. I hope they start in the west personally but I'd be willing to travel for the interview ;) So yeah I think it went well, Kristen is really nice and I know I was smiling the whole time lol ;D eeek I'm excited even though I know there's more waiting ahead :D
