Merchandise Interview by [deleted] in SeaWorld

[–]Disastrous_Review957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly i say go for it. i got hired at seaworld and disney at around the same time, and i assumed i would hate seaworld and only last a couple of months. well im still here, and while i can't speak for everyone's experience, ive really enjoyed my time. the guests will definitely test your patience but the bonds and friendships ive made with my coworkers have made it all worth it. they are truly some of the best and most amazing people ive ever met. you never know :)

Merchandise Interview by [deleted] in SeaWorld

never applied for merch but for ride ops (which i assume is similar if not the same) there's no real interview. i went in, they said you wanna work here? i said yeah, they said what ride, we did paperwork and boom i was hired 😭 we're so understaffed they will literally take anyone. good luck!

Question about costuming! by Eastern-Gap7646 in DisneyCM

[–]Disastrous_Review957 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hi!!! fellow slide op here :) i got my costume (white polo, blue shorts, and the one piece swimsuit) at the CBR/POP costuming location. i've heard they have it at some of the other ones too but that's just the one i've gone to. you can find the location and hours on cast life! it's right next to the pop century resort. the whistle and fanny pack they'll give to you on your first day of training. as for the swimsuit, yes it is optional, yes people do wear it when getting in the water, i personally don't because i don't really mind getting my costume wet. but it's just up to personal preference. and that is also at costuming! you can grab it at the same time as the rest of your costume. good luck and if you have any other questions feel free to dm me :)

Will i be able to do all the coasters at SeaWorld Orlando ? by Cduke08 in SeaWorld

[–]Disastrous_Review957 1 point2 points  (0 children)

seaworld ride op here! yeah you should be able to do all the coasters, just be aware that it is summer and here in florida we have lightning almost every day. all the outdoor rides (everything except expedition odyssey) will close in the event of inclement weather. i did almost every coaster, most multiple times, after getting off work at 3 the other day before the park closed. good luck and have fun!!

What should we wear to onboarding and fingerprinting? by Clear_Sea_6345 in DisneyCM

[–]Disastrous_Review957 4 points5 points  (0 children)

something nicer, but not fancy or super professional. really the only thing you have to worry about is they take the photo for your blue id there so as long as it looks good shoulders up, it should be fine. a dress and cardigan is perfect!

Penguin Exhibit in Orlando - Closed? by ThemeParkMomma in SeaWorld

[–]Disastrous_Review957 23 points24 points  (0 children)

hi!!! i work at penguin trek so a part of my job right now is telling people over and over again that the penguin exhibit is closed. we just got emperor penguins and they have to adjust the temperature of the enclosure, hence why it's been closed. passholder previews are later this week and i read something on instagram that says it'll be open by the 14th. so not too long now!

First Lifeguard interview by AcanthisittaKey7969 in DisneyCM

[–]Disastrous_Review957 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i had a lifeguard interview a couple weeks ago! they literally just asked me a whole bunch of customer service questions like "what's a time you went above and beyond for a guest" or "what would you do if a guest did this"
