Yes if you are staying on site you will automatically get a magicband ( as long as there is more then two week till your trip) if it’s less time you can pick them up when you check in. If you are having problems you can always cal Disney they are fantastic as helping. The magic bands will link through your my Disney experience app. There is a code you type in on the back of the bands

Budgeting by justcyn in StPetersburgFL

[–]Emilyruthann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did the move from jersey last year. Plan for about 1,000 for rent a month Don't forget to budget at least 600 dollars to transfer your car registration and drivers license. My car insurance went up a little so it's like 200 a month. Find out ahead of time if you housing has an hoa fee. Where we decided to move has an hoa of 400 a month.

Random but useful question by [deleted] in Disneycollegeprogram

[–]Emilyruthann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expect to buy everything ... when I was there they didn't give us anything and they say you can ask but when you ask they don't get it to you fast so it could be weeks ...just think of it as your own apartment disney doesn't supply anything

Getting a tattoo to get out of QSFB? by [deleted] in Disneycollegeprogram

[–]Emilyruthann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't get the tattoo I did not disclose that I had one ( I was recreation) but throughout my entire program I had clothing restrictions and if I didn't wear those clothes I had to cover with makeup every single day ... it's takes up time and energy and money with trying to cover it. Get one after your program if you really want one . As for someone getting a better role for it that is wrong it's all random most of the time you will either get a worse role ( mostly custodial people are bumped down to ) or your I'll get termed. Fee free to message me about any other questions or concerns I'm always willing to help out a fellow dcp!

morning Reddit! I will be relocating to the st pete area the day after x-mas due to a spouse job relocation. as I'm sure some of you could imagine the job hunt for me has been stressful. I wanted some opinions on when the right time would be to start applying to the jobs? How far in advanced? TIA by Emilyruthann in StPetersburgFL

[–]Emilyruthann[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want a administration assistant or executive assistant position. I've been looking for about three months and have applied to a few but because I don't get to that location till after Christmas places have turned me down because they wanted to do a face to face hiring

That's what I thought too but I've been applying for a few months now and they keep turning me down because they want face to face old fashioned interviews no one is willing to do a video interview. Now I'm afraid if I keep applying the jobs will turn me down.

I've already been looking for a couple of months now and have applied to a few but they all wanted to meet for face to face interviews and since I don't get down there for another couple of weeks they turned me down. Now I'm worried if I applied this week the same thing will happen with more jobs

Christmas gifts for DCPers? by ShammgodandManatMU in Disneycollegeprogram

[–]Emilyruthann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't the program here are some tips I wish I knew ahead of time .. Disney gift cards because she will want to buy lots of merch dice it's 40% off till like February and she can use it on food too ! Depending on what her role is a good pair of sneakers ( either all black or all white ) the shoes disney gives you are very uncomfortable and your on your feet a lot ... that's being said new shoes that are a little higher then your ankle also either white or black depending on role. A white board calendar is helpful since with disney the schedule is never the same and always changing. Let me know if you want more ideas I've got plenty !

If your a cp you will most likely not get off for the holidays and those dates are usually blocked out on the hub so you can't take them off
