Disney has a program to teach children English by the name of Disney English. A customer at my dad's bar came in one day with a paper to the website to Disney English. For a while, I held off on applying because of my confidence not being so high. But after rejections from every other company, I finally went, "What do I have to lose?" and applied last Sunday.
The next day, I had an e-mail waiting for me saying that I didn't have the qualifications for the Director Role that I applied for. BUT! I was qualified for another job through them. They sent me a link to a title called Foreign Trainer. Which is pretty much an English teacher. So I decided to not throw away a job offer and apply.
The day after that, they sent me an e-mail inviting me to fill out a questionare survey to figure out my personality. Not even an hour after I filled it out, I was scheduling a SKYPE interview. At 2:30 AM, I'm interviewing. They almost said no to me because Disney is so rigid on two years of post-college work experience. But when the interviewer realized her mistake, the interview began again.
Finally, I get a call last Thursday saying that I landed the job and would be shipping out in November. Best. Day. Ever. :D
And now I've been doing mad paperwork as well as TEFL-C certification. That is craziness. I couldn't believe how fast it was. :)
Awkward picture of the day!
