It was a long interview process with a lot of different people involved, and I never really knew when I'd hear back. The people I met were nice, but the process itself needs work. Disney seems to have way too many procedures in place.

It was a really tough process from beginning to end. The recruiters were friendly, but setting up the interviews with them was super disorganized. The chat with the hiring manager was terrible and felt rushed; she seemed completely uninterested and unaware of the role she was hiring for. Glad I dodged that bullet though.

Instead of an initial recruiter/HR chat, the first step was a Skype call with the hiring committee (3-4 people) you'd be working with. They were really nice and asked good, thoughtful questions.
