You'll need to fill out your availability schedule first. Then, take a quick math test. After that, you'll be called into a big room for a one-on-one interview, where other people will also be interviewed separately. The whole thing takes two days. The first day is basically to see if you're friendly. The second day is with the manager for the job you want. Make sure to bring your ID and social security card on the second day.

The application was submitted online, and the appointment was also scheduled online. On the day of the appointment, it was very busy with many other applicants. The interviewer was friendly. If you have prior experience working for Disney, emphasize that as they seem to value it. They will directly ask you about the information listed on your resume.
