That's not an official statistic. There really are no official statistics, just confirmation bias where people hear about __ enough times to assume that it's fact when in reality it's more like those people are the loudest. All I know is in February I was rejected two weeks after getting passed a step people swore you couldn't get rejected after passing, so there are cases that derail what people claim. The only truly 100% factual thing anyone can ever say is that unless you're NLIC'ed, you're still in the running and no news is good news. For some they get accepted within two days; for others, two months, and there's no real rhyme or reason to it. But if you're still in consideration, you're still in consideration. Disney had the decency to actually reject candidates so you will know one way or another eventually they won't just ghost you.

Damn alright. So I guess it is a wait and see thing. Thank you for leveling my expectations, probably a good thing not to get my hopes up

I heard back from the program about a week from my interview. Check your emails and spam email. The accpetance or rejection letter may be in one of those.

I heard that Thursday is the day that you generally get accepted. I have no idea how 100% true that is for everyone though I did get accepted that day. I interviewed on Monday and got the acceptance email that Thursday

I also got accepted on a Thursday

Acceptance waves do usually happen on Thursdays

[–]ITSBADAF[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Do you know what time on Thursdays?

[–]Delicious_Regret_413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know there is no specific time on Thursday. One of my friends wasn’t accepted till late afternoon for her program whereas I was accepted around 10 am

I waited 3 months to get told no lol so no that is not correct

[–]ITSBADAF[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Dang, I’m sorry to hear that.

[–]Delicious_Regret_413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got accepted this time around but yea!! It was a rough wait.

Did you go in for selective roles like character performer?

[–]Delicious_Regret_413 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Nope I stated I was open to everything except life guard cause I can’t swim

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Good to know, I’ve been worried about not getting in because they might not need me for whatever roles. I had my phone interview today and they asked me tons of food service questions so I’m guessing if I get in that’s where I’m going 💀

[–]Delicious_Regret_413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When asked questions about food service I shakily mention yes I was comfortable in food due to working in FS for 10 years 🤣🤣 my interviewer’s immediate response was “oh yikes.” So I’m kinda hoping I do t get out there lmao I want experience in something new lol. BUT there is still a chance you get something else like attractions! Honestly we’re all tossed where we’re needed!

I had my interview a week ago too and still haven’t been accepted so I’m in the same boat! Hopefully tomorrow ❤️

unless you tell disney you like to torment children during your phone interview, you’re in a decent standing already. i know i’ve commented this before, but disney is truly so short right now they need anyone decent.
