    Hey all you guys waiting for responses!

    I just wanted to say that if you're waitlisted don't feel too awful about it! When Eric told me that I was waitlisted and it could be anywhere from 2weeks to 4months till I hear from then again, I was heartbroken but ended up only waiting 3weeks.
    You might have to wait a while but essentially you still made it and perhaps you were wanting to leave too far in the future whatever the reason is.

    Anyway, I just wanted to say this as you guys are waiting for responses, don't give up hope!

    Yeah I guess I'm waitlisted (but they don't use that term anymore to avoid the negative feelings you get from it if it wasn't for this site I wouldn't know I was waitlisted).

    Pretty much he told me I was hired but they just didn't have my start date yet and would get back to more... oh well hopefully it's sooner rather than later...

    Yah, I don't even think Eric used the term "waitlisted" on me those many many moons ago. He just said I was successfull but didn't yet have a date.
    Hope you're not waiting long, I do wanna hang out with you while I'm still around! haha.

    Jordan you may not actually be waitlisted if he said your were hired. Thats what he told me and with out me asking he just said don't worry your not wait listed we are just waiting for more start dates.

    Ah sounds good, I'm hoping I got soon really, dosn't matter too much to me when I go, but its hard to get excited about going when I don't even know when I'm going...

    I did e-mail cast-a-way after the close of business asking for a little more information on my situation so hopefully they shed some light on it tomrrow.

    Hate to burst bubbles, but "waitlisted" doesn't always mean you get to go. I was waitlisted my first time and didn't get in. BUT...if they tell you they are waiting for a start date, that doesn't mean you're waitlisted. When I applied, then sent out two results letters...one was the waitlist letter and the other was one that said something like "you'll have a start date between X month and X month", which meant you had the job, but they didn't know when you'd start. Then they called people as they had start dates. I waited a couple months for mine and got a call out of the blue at like 9:30 on a Friday or Saturday night, which was completely odd.

    Good Luck!

    Yeah well then under your defination I'm not wait listed as I was told I was hired and Eric never used the term waitlist with me at all.

    Yeah I'm finding it espeically hard becuase I was changing my life for Disney. I'll have my degree in about a month and rather than use it, I was going to take the first year for Disney, so now I'm faced with starting my career and passing on Disney, or sitting through it and potentially wasting my degree for a year...

    Well, Jorden it does definatly sound like you're in so I wouldn't worry about it.
    I've never heard that you can be waitlisted then end up without the job in the end.
    Eric told me that I was successful but they just don't have a date for me yet, hopefully that's the same case for everyone else waiting.
    Good luck!

    i wouldnt worry to much jorden as snow white says it tottaly sounds like you are in...it's just more waiting...

    you'll just have to wait for someone to forego there chance...like the 2 april 28 people, or they might have an accident...mwwaahahahaha...eh just kidding! thats worst case...or they just haven't been told by disney bosses due to some backlog or something..remain positive!!!
