Of course reviewing if I was in college since it is a requirement. I felt the lady was professional and stuck to asking me questions relevant to the position. It was very positive.

Interviewed Aug 2010 (took 1 week)
I was first contacted by the recruiter for a phone interview. The recruiter asked simple questions about my job experience and professional strengths. About a week later, an interview was scheduled. I recieved an intinerary and was scheduled for 5 one-on-one interviews in one day. Be prepared to spend a full day for your first set of interviews. I received an offer a little more than two weeks after my full-day interview. From what I understand, my experience is uncommon; for most the hiring process can take months.

I obtained a phone interview a week after applying online. After passing the phone screen I was invited for an on-site interview. I was scheduled to interview with my 4 future managers and director. All interviews went well and HR was able to provide all necessary passes, maps, to make finding the buildings easy. Very positive experience.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Orlando, FL (took 4+ weeks)
Was called by a recuiter for this position and passed a phone screen, than with a Disney team member on thephone who grilled me pretty good for over an hour.
Next was an onsite interview where they asked standard questions. I did very well and was pretty excited until the end of the interview.....The manager stated that they only hire other managers with a BA degree. I could have screamed since I was a four hour trip to get to Orlando for me. I should have never made it that far in the process if that was a requirement.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Burbank, CA (took 2 weeks)
If you pass the resume period, then they believe you are qualified. If they like your resume, they will give you call where you will have an informal phone interview. If you "pass" then they will schedule a 1:1 interview. So if I would give advise, make sure your resume is "perfect."

Interviewed May 2009 in San Jose, CA (took a day)
I initially walked into the store looking for a part-time job. I obtained an application, turned it in later that day, and about two weeks later I got a call from the store offering me a chance to come in for an interview. I said I would, and showed up to the store. The manager took me outside into the mall with a group of about four other people, and started chatting with us. He was very friendly, and obviously quite enamored with "Disney" and what it stood for. He asked us all the same question in a Round Robin kind of style. The question that seemed to matter the most to him was, "If you were a Disney character, which would you be and why?"
Although he was very friendly, it seemed like the typical Disney "act." He wanted you to buy into what he was selling, to want to become a part of the Disney culture. We were still being treated like "guests," in a way, but also being analyzed for our ability to thrive under pressure, have the Disney attitude, work with others, etc.

Negotiation Details
There was no negotiation phase. As it was a part-time mall job, I was offered minimum wage.
