Hey I found you on tiktok and I’m so excited for this video 💖
aw thank you so much!! plenty more to come😆💗
Hi, thank you so much for the video it was super helpful, especially seeing a more recent video from 2022! I just found out yesterday I've got through to the final interview for '23 :D
that’s so exciting! congratulations and good luck!☺️🫶🏻
@@leahjane_xo Thank you so much! And I've been loving watching your vlogs since I found your channel today 😄
aww thank you!!☺️🫶🏻
Hiya! That is so exciting to hear, good luck :) I have my interview tomorrow morning so i'm super nervous and excited!! :):)
Thank you so much! Omg good luck!! Which program have you applied for??☺️
@@leahjane_xo You're welcome, thank you also!! The interview went really well and I've applied for the cultural exchange program :):)
for the september intake from NZ :)
Exciting!!🤩🤩
Did my pre screen for ‘23 last Tuesday. Hoping the in person is on a good day 🤞
ooo exciting!! good luck!☺️
Just got through to the pre screen interview for 23 so binging whatever videos i can find 😂 The energy at each stage of acceptance in this was so infectious though so hope the programme went great
thank you so much! I loved it, it was amazing!! good luck!☺️🤞🏻
i just applied for '23 ahhhhhh, hoping it works out!!
good luck!!🫶🏻
Loved this vid - super helpful so thank you! I've got through to the pre screen interview for summer '23 and just a quick question - would you say that most people who are offered a pre-screen get onto the program or are lots turned away? Just trying to weigh up my chances as I have never wanted to do something more in my life haha!
thank you so much and congratulations!! and a lot of us got accepted this year as they were really excited to bring us back! I know it’s a competitive experience but honestly be yourself and I’m sure it’ll go well!☺️
This has been so so helpful for future applications!! Thankyou 😊Did you have to write any essays for like why you want to work there or what culture means?
Thank you! And no I literally just applied there was not really an essay type process☺️ they may ask in interview though☺️x
@@leahjane_xo okay that's cool, thanks for letting me know 😊 I wonder if they're going to stick to the quick turnaround application process of it's worked well for them
To be honest I can imagine it’s been really stressful so I’m honestly not sure, but I definitely preferred the fact our wait times were like a max of two weeks rather than months☺️!
I've applied for Summer 2025! I'm hoping so badly I get through! What are you're main tips for the interviews?
This video is super helpful! Thank you! When would you say is best to apply? I’m interested in applying for summer 2024 x
Keep an eye on the yummy jobs website/Instagram as they post all the openings of when to apply! Sometimes it’s in the July of the year before, other times it has opened in September throughout October so I’d definitely just keep an eye out!x
Just got my offer letter from Disney for the CEP this Summer to be a photopass photographer and so excited! For sorting visas, when did you manage to go to sort that out? Because I don't know if there are only limited dates available for them and I'm hoping I still have enough time to sort mine out before I go!
That’s incredible! Congratulations!! And I would get it done as soon as possible! I’m sure yummyjobs kind of advised us through those steps though, but if not I would look at getting it done as soon as you can!☺️
@@leahjane_xo thank you so much!! Have been watching your videos since I applied back in may and they make me so excited to go!! Can’t wait!
Aww thank you!! You’ll honestly have the best time! And being a photo pass photographer is so so magical!!☺️💘
is the year of study to be eligible for the program before applying or before the program? (ie can you apply as a uni 1st year student)
I believe you have to be in your second year of uni, you can’t apply as a first year student! I’d check on the yummy jobs website to be certain though!
@@leahjane_xo that sucks if it is the case - yummy jobs says that you have to complete a semester but with no specification of when, and i cant seem to find anything elsewhere. im in sixth form and would love to do the program asap!!
@shadesofwhitee I know it’s definitely university level rather than a-levels! But there is also other programs available! There’s the CRP (a year long program) and the academic exchange program (a year long program when you’re a student in uni - specific to uni and course) which again has all the eligibility on their website!
Hi Leah, Recreation Attractions - do you know anyone who got this when you were out there? If so, where did they work and did they enjoy it? Thank you! Katy
I didn’t as that isn’t a role that is usually opened to CEPs. I think it’s available if you’re a DCP applicant tho! There’s some CZcamsrs who I watched who were in that role and they loved it!☺️
Thanks Leah. X
Is this programme only available to individuals that are currently at university?
The Cultural Exchange Program is only for university students, there is the cultural representative program which is open to anyone over the age of 18! On a website called yummy jobs, it has all the requirements for each program x
@@leahjane_xo Thankyou xx
I have a question. Because I really want to apply for Disney’s cep and cause I turn 18 this august. Do you think I’d be able to apply?
So the CEP you have to be enrolled into university and be in your second year I believe! The 2024 applications are already complete, so I would keep an eye out on yummy jobs (either their socials/website) if you meet the criteria for the CEP! On the website it also has all the info on the criteria you need to meet to be able to do it☺️
@@leahjane_xo thankyou so much for replying, I’m in my third year of college so I hope that would count
@itsfenneh697 I believe it is an accredited university course rather than college. Are you a UK participant? Just as I know other countries have different requirements for the CEP and have to go directly through Disney☺️
@@leahjane_xo yes I’m from near Manchester
In how many days they will declare our interview result that we are selected or not.
I won’t lie I’m not 100% sure, some people from what I’ve heard have already received theirs but it can be different for every person/each year the length changes!
I won’t lie I don’t know if you hear back if you haven’t been successful (I could be wrong on this though)
Apparently they contact everyone regardless of passing or not ;)
How long did it take between applying and hearing back from them x
I’m ngl my year was a bit rushed so we knew it all from applying to interviews to being accepted in around a months time. I applied at the start of April and knew by the end but I think usually the applications open around now, you have interviews in like September and you find out before January x
@@leahjane_xo Thank you 😊
Are you enjoying it there? I'm thinking of applying also it's something I really want to do ☺️
I’ve literally loved it! there’s definitely been moments I’ve missed home (like missing events/milestones) but I would 100% recommend it! made friends for life, made so many mems!☺️
@@leahjane_xo sounds amazing, can I dm you on insta for more advice and info about it??💕 wanting to gain some insight on it
@@phoebecaffrey2372 yeah of course!☺️
what are you studying? x
I was an early childhood studies graduate at the time that I flew out, I graduated oct 2023 x
