Our recruiting season is almost here and I am gearing up for another
semester of meeting your fantastic students and traveling throughout
Michigan and Ohio!


A few reminders about our program in case you would like to share with your
students!!  First of all, we will begin our on-campus presentations
February 8th and start recruiting students for the Disney College Program
in both Walt Disney World (Orlando, FL) and Disneyland Resort (Anaheim,
CA). Students are welcome to come to any presentation (presentation
schedule is available on-line) or they can apply on-line at
www.disneycollegeprogram.com and schedule themselves for a phone interview.
Both programs do offer the educational component of the program (with
courses that have been approved by the American Council on Education for 3
credits a piece) although students at Disneyland are required to
participate in these classes. Students will still be participating in the
same type of roles on both coasts and focusing on building tactical skills,
learning guest service, improving communications skills with a diverse
audience, and training from a Fortune 100 Company, with opportunities to
network with our Leaders and open the door for future career advancement.
Recently, the work component of our program was also approved by the
American Council on Education for credit which we are very excited about
since this could broaden the opportunities for students to obtain credit
for participation on our program. In addition, we have recently improved
our interview process by implementing the Web-based interview by Gallup
which recommends right fit talent for our Company.

A few enhancements this season:

o       You now will be able to view the students offered positions at both
WDW and DLR. If you currently do not receive this list and would like to,
please just let me know.

o       In an effort to stay green and support our Company initiative of
Environmentality, we are going paperless this season. We will not be
collecting applications on campus, student will all be directed to apply
on-line and use an electronic signature.

o       We will not be conducting in-person interviews on campus. This is
so we can remain flexible with the student schedules, consistent on all of
our campuses as time does not allow us to interview each candidate in
person, and it speeds up the process of sending the students an offer for
the program. This is a trial this season and we welcome any feedback.

o       Students will be taking a Web-based Interview to determine if they
are a right fit candidate for the Disney Company prior to interviewing.

o       Syllabi and course information are available for all of our
educational courses for students to participate in while doing the Disney
College Program.

Thanks and looking forward to working with you on campus this season!!
Marcie
