When I did my interview I didn't feel a connection with the woman. Has anyone else felt that?She wasn't too friendly like most people say...hmmm..guess it's just me.
I know what you mean. My first interview last year was kinda like that, she was pleasant enough, but not really interested in what I had to say. I was nervous beyond all belief and I kinda stumbled over my words, and she didn't seem to help me any. She just kinda read the questions and let me flounder. So, I hung up feeling worse and kinda depressed.
When I applied again, I had a different woman who knew I was nervous and started to make me laugh to calm me down. She even helped me when I was honestly baffled by a question. (It was a situational question, and since I didn't really know much about the role, she gave me a hint by explaining what I would hypothetically have on my person while working that role.) By the end of the interview I had completely forgotten that it
was an interview! So really, it's just luck of the draw...
My second interview lady said that they had interviewed about 300 people that day, and it was only 4:00. So part of it could be that they're listening to EVERYONE basically say the same thing every time they're on the phone. Maybe?
Aww, yeah you make a good point. It just means so much to me because my life needs this program NOW. This isn't just about getting to go to Disney Land for me, it's about something so much greater. I would be excited to share my news, but I wouldn't post it every single time I post something here. Yeah, I'd have a countdown but I wouldn't be waving it around in the faces of people who are pending or may have been rejected. But like I said, I didn't know that it's not an intentional thing.
I guess I understand what you're talking about, cause working at Disney World has been a dream of mine since I was old enough to understand that the people who worked there weren't actually people gifted with magical powers. lol
It's an important thing to
everyone here, and the news is something to share because The College Board forum is for people to support each other and give valued advice. You shouldn't take offense to simple things like this, because it's not meant to be something mean-spirited, it's just to inform people who are pending that "Yes, it is possible for your dreams to come true too. Just be patient." And besides, it also helps that when you see someone comment on a question you have that they've actually been in the program before and know what they're talking about. Or that they've gone through the interview process and the pending process before you and they
understand what you're feeling.
