    I've been lurking for a while and with the applications opening again soon (i'm hearing July, lord have mercy on my anxious soul) I was wondering if any current/accepted CRPers have blogs which would be useful for us apply-ees - probably not even a word but anyway; so if anyone has a blog, I'd (and I'm sure many others in my position) would love to read them. :)

    Ps. I've read a lot of blogs from previous years, hence why I'd like to see some 2012 ones.

    :)

    I'll be heading out there in October! I got through the second time applying so my blog is a lot about the horrific waiting from the first time around ... I haven't actually updated it since I got the good news! I will do soon, though!

    What are the odds that I've read all of your blogs and have them bookmarked already... I really do :')
    Best of luck to all of you.

    Your time will come soon Bryony. :)

    Well, I'm posting on behalf of myself and a new friend named Zac! Him and I have decided to do a joint blog account! We are both on the wait list and needed something to keep us busy! We've only just started but it'll definitely be one to watch! You get the perspective of an Alumni and first timer! Until we get start dates, we'll just be posting random Disney blogs.. funny videos, tips, things to do in and around Orlando, etc...

    Follow and comment lots! :)

    I've finally gave in to temptation and started my tumblr blog! Its not done or up to date yet but it probs will be packed by the end of this week lol! http://scottishjen.tumblr.com/

    scrub that, I'm making the move to blogspot!

    new blog .... http://jendisneycrp.blogspot.co.uk/

    still got plenty to catch up on it with but I got A LOT of advice from a lecturer that worked with Disney over 20years ago and still has some close ties so he was a huge amount of help. I don't know how I would have got on without it! So I intend to write quite a bit about that :)

    Hi CuriousAlice

    I was accepted just 3 days ago and I start my program in March. I've done a Blog of everything leading up to and including being accepted covering the new pre-screening process and face to face interview. I also give some tips on actually applying.

    I've started doing Vlogs as well and I'll be posting one for application, pre-screen and face to face before continuing with my progress to getting there and while I'm there. I hope you and others find it helpful. :)

    Thank You Catherino!

    That's really kind of you to say so. I've just finished all my Vlogs, so feel free to watch them, but I do ramble a bit so forgive me for that.

    #1 - Introduction http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=od7BP9RvLT4
    #2 - Application and Pre-Screen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qiPKiqyCBE
    #3 - Face to Face Interview http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um43IQAuEEU
    #4 - The Result http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oK_K9IR31ho

    Thanks again! I'm glad what I'm doing isn't a total waste of my time :)

    I've just watched all of them! They're really helpful and you don't ramble too much! No more than I do anyway!

    I hope I don't end up losing/forgetting your videos by the time the applications open! They'll be a really useful resource to have! Especially the two interview ones!

    I can't believe you didn't get a place straight away, you seem so 'Disney'!

    Great! I'm glad they're helpful then :)

    I'm sure you won't, just bookmark them or something, I'm sure you'll start looking for Vlogs again when you start your application and interview.

    Well like I said in 'The Result' video, opportunity list is just waiting for the right time. And for me it is! I go in March and it works out great because I'm working at Chessington World of Adventures until november to get the money, then I'll probably just take a christmas temp job and then I'm off :D

    Not getting a date straight away really isn't something to worry about. Just bare it in mind as it's the majority of people that will end up on the opportunity list next year too. "I think!"

    But thanks for your feedback, I'm really grateful and GOOD LUCK! to you and all the other soon to be applicants x
