Disneyland Paris Jobs - Casting news and tips

gldc · July 12, 2011, 01:09:52 AM

No apply now. I've been acceptd and chose jobs for Christmas 2010 and summer 2011. A French cover letter is not expected, do it in English.

After lots and lots of waiting and complications and heartbreak and constantly emailing Noellie I finally got my contract offer for Christmas. It's not summer but I'm still pleased!

I'm doing breakfast in the hotels (which I imagine is reserved for people whose french isn't too fabby). Can anyone give me details on it if they've done it before? I'm curious about the hours because I can imagine there'll be plenty of time for going to Disneyland and a few Paris visits! Also wondering about the uniforms. I imagine they'll be pretty boring but I'm still curious! haha.

Anyone else going for christmas?

I'm just glad it's indoors, I remember going on holiday at christmas 2 years ago and even with hundreds of layers I was still freeezing!

Quote from: "nickyd"Sadly, Disney is crushing hopes all over the place. I went to the Hammersmith interviews in early April but have not heard anything since. They promised to contact me about Haloween or Christmas but nothing heard at all.
Just to see what would happen, I applied again and got invited to the recent London session. They made no connection between the two applications - they seem quite badly organised, but then they are French. My French was better than the Italian interviewer so it is all a bit of a mess. Personally I didn't bother to chase the appplication up as they have run out of accommodation anyway.

Good luck to those waiting but I would look for something else in case you hear nothing.

Email them! I was in the exact same position and I emailed asking about Halloween or christmas contracts and had an offer in two days.

Hello

I received an e-mail on Monday from Noellie saying, "You should soon receive a job offer for Christmas".

Anyone know how long "soon" usually is?

Hi

I've been offered a Halloween 2011 contract for Vendeuse Boutique, I was just wondering if anyone else got an offer of this and has anyone been offered both Halloween and Christmas.
If anyone's heading for Halloween to work there, PM me.. I'd like to know a few other people heading over to DLP too!

Hey, I'm currently working at Disney! I'm not working in the hotels, but I have been transferred to do breakfast at one of the hotels. It was pretty easy, just clearing tables/relaying them etc. It probably varies depending on the standard of the hotel though. I worked 7.30-10.15 but then did the rest of my shift at my restaurant, so I'm not sure about people who just work in the hotel, but I can tell you they will be early shifts! I worked in Sequoia Lodge Hotel, and wore quite a nice outfit (compared to some of the others!) was just a green long skirt, with a checkered short sleeve shirt and a little apron, quite nice really

Hope that's helped you a bit, sorry I can't be of more help, I'm not entirely sure about everything regarding the hotels because I normally work in a restaurant.

Hello fellow disney lovers!
New to the forum

I read through some of the stuff on here last night before the london audition today (SUPER HELPFUL) and to my surprise have been placed on the waiting list! I didn't even think I would pass the 1st stage! Though of course I've read some of the horror stories of those who were not called during the 6 month period so I am just hoping and praying the phone rings soon! Anyone else go today? You may have spotted me struggling

Sending out a whole lot of pixie dust, mwah! x

My friend who is currently working at HKDL she got a offer this week as Cinderella, Ariel, Rapunzel and furrys. Not sure if shes taking up the contract as I know she wants to be able to back home to Orlando before starting the contract in October.

Hi everyone

I'm new to the forum and was looking for a bit of help. I'm hoping to be able to work in Disneyland paris next easter (2012) and I'm just a bit confused as to how I'd go about it :? First, if i wanted to work next Easter, when would be the time to audition? How long do seasonal contracts last and is there a set amount of times a year that Disneyland paris recruit?

Any help would be really appreciated thanks

Just got an offer on Ride operator which could be a great variety of thingd - I'm hoping indoors! Very much looking forward to doing all the safety training and learning how all these things work. Actually very excited. I'll be there at Christmas for 2 weeks and 1 day.

Anyone who's worked there know if I only find out the ride when I get there?

rosie1993: disneylandparis-casting.com is the pace to go for all the available jobs and it will depend whether you want to be performing or be doing operational work such as shops/rides. Audition asap and you can already put your name down for next easter and summer. They interview every couple of months so apply at that website and youll get an email inviting you toa recruitment session soon enough.

That's a great help thanks very much!

If i want to be a character do i still have to apply on the website?

When I auditioned last year I just turned up at the venue because they are usually open auditions. They sometimes do private auditions if you do apply through the website otherwise just look on the disney auditions website and the stage website for future auditions. Hope this has helped
