Interviewed Sep 2011 in Anaheim, CA (took a day)
It was pretty basic but I think I was too nervous to provide concise answers. My HR suggested I apply for the Disney College Program instead because it may provide leverage to eventually applying again for a professional internship. I was a little disappointed since I would not be furthered to the next round of interviews but I'm still trying to stay positive. My advice is just to relax yourself because the interviewers are really nice and try to make you feel comfortable.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Tampa, FL (took 2 days)
Applied online and the next day received an email requesting a phone interview. It's all automated and you can select a date/time to have your phone interview. The phone interview was pretty basic: what skills can you bring to the job, some Disney knowledge, questions about sales experience/tactics. If they're satisfied with your answers, they'll move you on to the next phase: skills test, personality test, and interview held at the reservation center. The skills test is just a basic computer program for sales and comprehension -- timed and simple enough. Then you take a personality test, and after that, watch a short video about Disney and the job. All the previous takes about an hour. Then you have an interview with a trainer and sales leader. Basic interview questions, but they're very heavy on how comfortable you are about suggestive selling and closing sales. They also have you perform a "mock" sale with a guest calling to book a vacation. Seemed like a fairly straightforward interview with easy enough questions. They would not discuss pay, incentives, or commissions unless you were hired. At this point, still waiting to hear from them.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Lake Buena Vista, FL (took 2 weeks)
I filled out an application earlier in the year, and received an email a couple months later saying that I had been selected for an initial online interview. It was basically a personality test with your simple strongly agree/strongly disagree questions. It then led me to the next step to make an appointment for an in-person interview at the casting center in orlando.
The interview was pretty simple and I was asked questions like why I wanted to work in the parks, if I had any visible tattoos, what my availability was like, what I believe the most important thing is when working in attractions (safety), and other things like that.

Reason for Declining
I had to decline because I hadn't yet found a place to live in Orlando.

Interviewed Jun 2009 (took 2 weeks)
Went to two panel interviews. One with local managers, second with area manager level. Asked basic questions, why do you want to work here, what qualifications do you have. IN second panel interview they were more leadership situation questions, like here are five things that could happen, now place them in order of how you would solve them. Remember Safety and guest come first.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Burbank, CA (took 3 days)
The first round seemed useless. This interview was with HR. The lady was not terribly friendly and offered little help. She didn’t seem to be knowledgeable but instead underprepared for the interview. She also called 15 minutes late, which affected my subsequent appointments.
The following rounds gave me the opposite experience. The department manager conducted these. She was tremendously knowledgeable and prepared.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Orlando, FL (took 1 week)
I applied online and was given a contact number to schedule a phone interview according to my convenience. The interviewer was very nice and chatty; he asked me general interview questions like my work experience, challenges I overcame, my personal qualities, etc. It was my first job interview outside college and I was very nervous, but online advice I read about being perky and enthusiastic definitely helped mitigate what could have been a very awkward interview.
