  • This may be the wrong place to ask (and if it is, let me know where I should look: What prior experience do you need to be able to apply to this position? This is exactly the kind of work I would like to do and similar to what I currently do (I work for a university) but doing for Disney is my goal!

  • Ugh this makes me happy cry! I really want to become a CM. I basically am already. I go every week and when I’m there I pick up trash, I direct people to where they’re going, and I put merchandise back in its place when I see one on the floor or the wrong shelf.

  • Perfect timing! I have Traditions next Friday at the Resort!

  • Hope to be taking this class sometime in the future 🙂 My second career will be as a photopass photographer! Now I just need to run away to Florida….

  • Going through Traditions for The Disney Store was one of the greatest experiences in my Disney history. I’m so glad I had an opportunity to take part in this program. 🙂

  • Wow this is awesome! It’d definitely be a dream of mine to work for Disney or even better, Disneyland at some point in my life.

    *thinks of Wishes fireworks show* Maybe it will come true some day 🙂

  • Very cool behind-the-scenes look. Thank you!
