Technical
In the interview, I had to do a few Excel tasks. They wanted to see how I look at data, use formulas, and find mistakes fast. The process showed me how important it is to pay attention to details, because small mistakes could mess things up. I did each task carefully and explained my thinking to show I knew what I was doing and could explain it well.

The interview for the College Program was about 30 minutes long. We talked about my past work experience, what I'm interested in, and the kind of work environment I like. Some questions were about dealing with the heat in Florida, lifting things, and making sure I knew my exact role wouldn't be revealed until the program officially began.

It was a good experience overall, though communication from the recruiters could be slow. Everyone I spoke with was friendly, and it was clear that employees at Disney are passionate about their jobs. The interview process had three parts: an initial HR call to check basic fit, followed by a first stage focused on competencies and cultural alignment. The second and last stage was a one-hour, in-person, task-based interview to assess my skills for the role.

Coding Technical System Design Behavioral Other
The interview included a Hackerrank test, a chat with the manager, a live coding session, a system design discussion, a behavioral interview, and a meet and greet. I spoke with different managers and directors throughout. The vibe was chill, and the exercises were pretty easy. The system design part wasn't really system design, more like a discussion about solutions for data structures for nested operations in a calculator that separates operations by terms.
