Hey all! I’ve just posted a Part 2 video to my time working at the Wizarding World! Go check it if you want to learn more about my time there and how you can get a job there too! czcams.com/video/aIoJHwdf2Cc/video.html&lc=z13ighbwlrimtl4zr04cezixpvvyuvhg324
Jess Medley you said your Griffendor and I'm Ravenclaw!
Ravenclaw Warrio
Jess Medley Just curious, what is your zodiac sign?
Do you happen to know what is in the love potion scent in weasleys wizard wheezes?? Because it smelled sooo freaking good and I want to know what's in it!
Jess Medley new subscriber here! You have a great personality!
ok I just now decided to give up on all of my career dreams and try to get a job at Harry Potter world
BlueBell Pond IKR this was so inspiring now I know who I want to work for!
BlueBell Pond I KNOW!!!!!
Fuck that Paris university, I'm gonna be a wizard 😂
Same here.. Sounds like the best way to make it all more real haha
Yep same😂
this sounds like an actual dream job
Ikkkkkk
You look like a Weasley!
She is....
@@lwp2001 since when is a Weasley rich
Jonathan Ibasco *ahem* Weasley's Wizard Wheezies. The joke shop was kind of a success
A little bit. The Weasleys have bright red hair though. She is more strawberry red.
What is the hardest question you got at your trivia quiz?
I NEED A JOB THERE no seriously. I need to work there. This sounds like the coolest thing ever. In the world. Ever.
It was amazing! :)
Didn't even know that existed, but omg, now I'm so jealous!!😍😩 I'm so glad I found your channel, just subscribed!❤️ You're so beautiful, and you seem really likable! xx
Thank you so much for your support!! You should definitely try and go to one of the parks, they are great! :)
I love the Wizarding World! This was so interesting to learn about what it was like to be a team member there. Also that's pretty rad that the people who made the costumes on set designed the costumes for the Wizarding World. Talk about attention to detail!
The amount of attention to detail there is absolutely insane! They do not mess around; which is why it really is such an amazing place!
I could so work there...lol
I went when I did the Disney International College Program, and I loved it. When I bought my Gryffindor Hoodie and my mug, the cashier was a Slytherin. She was like "Come on Muggles! Have your money wand ready, hurry up...come on Muggles" complete with a Slytherin sneer and eye roll.
When I went up (with my parents) I said "How do you know we're muggles?" This is how the conversation went:
Slytherin: "Well, you're dressed like Muggles, and you're using the Muggle money wand"
Me: "Excuse me. Do you know how hard it is to blend in with Muggles? Of course we're dressed like them, and using their money wands. We don't want them crowding around us and asking questions, we'd never get any peace! Look, I'm buying my house hoodie. House Pride!
Slytherin: Ugh....Gryffindors
Me: Ugh Slytherins...go on, name one good Slytherin. Severus Snape doesn't count
Slytherin: *smiles* You got me
Wolfmyth100 slughorn 😬
Well done! She didn't name Slughorn, I guess she needed you there that day. :D
Wolfmyth100 regulus black
Another one! She didn't bring him up either
When did you ask her? Bc Scorpius Malfoy tho
"Before all the muggles show up" I'm dyinggg XDD Since you talk about having changed your makeup for B&B, was wearing makeup in emphasized?? Like was anyone barefaced??
Nope it was totally optional! I just really enjoy wearing makeup and when I worked there I felt like wearing darker eyeshadows and more eyeliner type of thing. We weren’t really supposed to wear a boatload of makeup so as long as it looked nice and wasn’t ridiculously intense, you were good! But I knew many people who never wore makeup to work; it's totally personal preference!
Jess Medley Wow you reply fast XDD thanks for answering btw!! I'll prob never get the chance to work there but now I know in the rare case I might 😁
Haha I am on winter break currently so I’m literally just sitting on my computer watching CZcams videos for hours straight. :p And hey if you really want to, it’ll happen! Plus there are Wizarding Worlds all over the world now, so it’s easier than ever! :) Thanks for watching!
Jess Medley Lolzz saame!! The biggest obstacle in my way would probably be living in NY though :x I think the only wizarding world in the US is in Florida, right?? I'm not entirely sure about that though...
There is another in California too, but I guess that doesn’t exactly help. hahaha
2:01 "who was killed by the basilisk?" I literally shouted are you freaking kidding me and moaning myrtle over and over and over and over....
whoops I forgot. grab the pitchforks
Jess Medley for shame. Real fans know
Draco Malfoy sorry but who is basilisk? Seriously I am also a big fan of Harry Potter but unfortunately I can't apply in London wizarding world of Harry because I am from U.S I am so sad why they don't have a HP studio in USA
Marine Corps thx for replying :)
Draco Malfoy me too, I don't know how she didn't. lol. love the video..my nerd self cringed when she said mungle, instead of muggle. but I think it was because she was so passionate she was talking fast.
If you hand me a broken wand then I would say it's Ron's wand.
You’re not wrong
I went in January, and every time I saw a worker, they'd say "Go hufflepuff!" (i was decked out in hufflepuff stuff) and some of them told my gryfinndor sister that hufflepuff was the better house. All of the workers always encouraged hufflepuffs. Is this a thing you were told to do or did I just have a really good day?
I think it would make sense being told to cheer on the less popular houses. It makes you feel good :)
No we are not encouraged to signal out Hufflepuffs. If anyone said something it was likely because they also like Hufflepuff house. :)
I went in January as well and I saw one person in full Hufflepuff uniform other than me. I was one of the only person dressed up who wasn't a work
If anything, Hufflepuff is one of the most popular houses.Literally everyones in it.
Hufflepuff is actually pretty popular when it comes to actual fans and Gryffindor tends to be the least popular. Just check literally any poll where they ask people what house they’re in.
you should team up with the tim tracker and do a big tour of the parks with insider info. that would be awesome
Watch . She was probably like stocking the wand shelf and Emma Watson just walked behind her 😂
Knowing me, probably. I def thought I saw Evanna Lynch once but alas it wasn’t her her. :(
Jess Medley aw that sucks :(
That would be so cool!
Your positivity is contagious! Absolutely loved this video, thank you for sharing!!
This video filled me with so much happiness. Your excitement, the feeling of going to a theme park, HARRY POTTER... it just all makes me feel so warm and cozy. Nothing will ever make me feel so much as much as Harry Potter has.
I have never before seen a vid of you but this popped up in my recommended and it was so relaxed and nice to watch & listen to ... I'm also soooo jealous because that actually sounds like my dream job :D
You are seriously the cutest 😭😭💕
Okay! I LOVE HOW POSITIVE YOU ARE IN THIS! So many people are always talking about the negatives but I love how you talk about all of the perks!:)
Thank you!! I definitely like to focus more on the positive aspects of life :)
This was a really good video! When I'm older I'm going to move closer to Watford because I really want to work at the Warner Bros. studio tour in England lol
That’s be awesome, I’ve always wanted to go there!
As the biggest Harry Potter fan, I would honestly do anything to work there. Get paid to relive my favorite childhood books and movies? YES PLEASE
Absolutely loved this video!! thanks for posting and sharing your experience! the people in Borgin and Burkes were so mean when I went there but I found it so funny!! so good that you get to move around the different stores. never seen the naming ceremony before with the Pygmy puffs, will watch out for that next time!! :D xxx
I remember seeing you and talking to you while on my vacation! This is so exciting!
Omg I'd love to work there!😍 it sounds so exciting!😱 great video!💕💕
I have herminoes Yule ball dress
iUnicorn Games where did you get that ?
kloe yeung I know you can get that at universal but it's really expensive
iUnicorn Games HOW
Try Etsy
iUnicorn Games Like Hermione says to you "Its Hermione not Herminoes."
You're so happy!! I love it. I used to work at City Walk. Such a small world.
Woah that’s awesome! I absolutely adore City Walk!!
This vid was lots of fun. It's really made me miss my time there. I was working at Journey. Loved your insight into both Diagon and Hogsmeade. Before the parks open was always one of favourite times to walk through hogsmeade. So pretty!
I don't think I specifically remember you but I've been called your guy's 'unofficial Luna Lovegood'. I go to the park about every other week (though I don't have a pass yet this year so it's been a few months sense my last visit) and I always come in a Luna costume. I've gotten to know a lot of the cast in both parks and sometimes I'm even allowed to take pictures with guests and I'll be given my own security guard!
I think it's really sweet that you let me do that at the park, and I would understand if it ever had to stop, but I've had the best time of my life getting to be the unofficial Luna of orlando haha
Omg! You're at 970! So close to 1,000!
Also, if I worked at the wizarding world of Harry Potter, I would want to work at Olivanders
I know I am so excited!! It looks like I may hit 1k tonight or tomorrow! And yes I loved Olivanders! I basically did work there too, though it was just the wand portion in my other store, but basically Olivanders. :)
You're adorable! A huge Harry Potter fan here! Thanks for making this!! Subscribed xoxo
Sounds like a dream! That place is so magical!
OMG i´m a Vegan Potterhead too! Also, i did the Disney College Program in Orlando last year; i wish i could´ve worked at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter though, best job ever!!
hahaa we’re so similar!!
If I got a job interview for The Wizarding World of Harry Potter I would turn up in my Gryffindor school robes...
It would definitely show off your passion!
this is legit a dream job omg 🙌🏻⚡️✨
Your channel is so underrated. More people have to see what kind of amazing video's you make! 😘
What's something you would suggest to future applicants to help them stand out amongst all the other applications?
This is super awesome info! Thank you! BTW what is your lipstick?? It looks so pretty on you 😍😍
Thank you! I’m honestly not sure, I don’t remember what I was wearing this day but it was probably a Nyx Lip Butter, I wear those a lot! :)
Wow this is my first time seeing your videos and holy cow I love you. You have such a great bubbly personality and you are gorgeous!!!
This is so sweet, thank you!!
I absolutely loved this video!! Just subscribed! Thank you for sharing your awesome experience with working at harry Potter World! Love your personality too, so glad that I found your channel! Wish I lived closer so I could get the chance as well but, I did get the chance to visit twice and it was the best experience ever! Especially during A Celebration of Harry Potter
¨who was killed by the basilisk?¨ THATS SO EASY!
Aprath RIGHT SHE WAS LIKE “uhh I didn’t know it” and instantly I was thinking “Moaning Myrtle obviously” and now I definitely need to apply to Harry Potter world lol
Honestly, I forgot for a second. Had to think about it for a while.
IM LIKE SO JEALOUS OMG
That sounds so awesome!! I really, REALLY wanna work there when I'm older!
Wow! It's mazing to learn that all the staff there needs to know everything about Harry Potter. That's really cool!!!
Are the robe uniforms borrowed or given to you :)
This is my dream job
Watching this got me so excited! I just got hired for HP and the Forbidden Journey! I am excited to experience the magic!
sounds like the dream job!!!
When I bought my Pygmy Puff they didn't do the naming ceremony and I was so upset.
Depends where you buy it, which ones you buy, etc. I’m sorry you didn’t get that experience though!
Jess Medley I got the giant one from the joke store 😊
It is my biggest dream to work at harry potter world but did you need any acting experience?
Not unless you want to work as an actor.
OMG YOUR HAIR IS SOO PRETTY!!!!!! LOVE IT! I HAV NATURAL RED HAIR
Thank you for this video, I loved this! It would be my dream to work there but I dont live in either location- So It was so exciting for me to hear your experience!
RAVENCLAW 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Did you mean to say you applied in 2013 and not 2003...?
Well seeing as I was 7 years old in 2003, most likely :p
Jess Medley child labor is not fun
+ The Disney Dancer u right
The Disney Dancer i would take the job if they offered it to me at 7 years old i mean your getting paid for doing what you love HOW GREAT IS THAT
I love your smile!
This sounds like the dream job, I love the wizarding world 💞💞
🐍⚡️🐍⚡️🐍⚡️🐍⚡️🐍⚡️🐍
Did they not make you take the pottermore quiz?
Pottermore is not directly affiliated with the WWOHP, so no. The majority of us have taken it on our own though
It's not, even though it's the Official website?
David Albee it's jk rowling's not universals so different people own it
Your energy is so great
This is so sweet, thank you!!
You seem like a ray of sunshine! 😊 Happily subscribed! xx
Ravenclaw and Proud
I'm very upset that there is no Wizarding World anywhere near me. Very very upset.
Thank you so much for making this!! i just got a job at The Leaky Cauldron and I am beyond excited, but I'm a bit nervous as well. I was scared of this experience ruining my love of Harry Potter, bit your video has given me hope :)
Congrats!! The Leaky Cauldron is great and I know you’ll have so much fun!!
Just arrived to your channel and already a big fan! And I landed on this video like.. wooow, the dream of my life! Working in either, The Wizarding World, WDW or SeaWorld! But being from Spain makes it quite difficult!
Thanks for sharing your amazing experience!
Thank you for watching! Definitely look into opportunities starting out closer to home! Disneyland Paris could be an option!
hehe already did, was a cm for 8 months covering a girl who was on maternity leave :) But its quite hard to come back now to the job I was doing for an indefinite contract :(
I thought she was Betty from riverdale but has Cheryl's hair.
hahaa yes all I ever want to be!!
Jess Medley 😂!
You could be a Weasley!
The dream!
Just found your channel! Thanks for sharing this, it was really fun to watch! You're so sweet!
Darn! No one did a naming ceremony for my pygmy puff. But this is cool! Such a fun video!
I actually felt in love with u
Hey I went to universal and saw you
this job seems absolutely awesome !
It was awesome! Thanks for watching!!
I'm still in middle school but I already know at some point in my life I want to work at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter and it was so nice to know your experience working there, btw this video is so amazing.
you look like lili reinhart
dennismaryanski that's what I thought as soon as I saw this 😂
Honey u seem like a hufflepuff to me.. no hate bc I AM one
hahaa I’m not sure, I definitely feel more like a Ravenclaw, but Puff and Gryffindor come super close!
The first time I did the quiz I had slytherin then hufflepuff then ravenclaw I am a slytherpuffclaw i tried again it was slytherin so what am I ? I prefer ravenclaw!
Baked Potato well if you were selected Slytherin twice then id say you are one😂 don't worry though! Not all Slytherin are bad!
Baked Potato remember the sorting hat takes your choice into account, so you may well be a ravenclaw (like me!!!)
I loved working with you, Jess! I wondered where you went!
It seems like so much fun to work there I'd love to when I'm older because I'm obsessed with Harry Potter 😍💜
Good to hear that a vegan wasn't working for Seaworld!! :)
A job is a job and I haven’t always been vegan.
Glad to hear you're vegan now! :) Great videos!
Dr Martin Because if she wasn't a vegan, you would like her less??? 😯
JustCallMeKeebler extremely happy she's gone vegan!!
Wow. She’s gorgeous. Btw, I’m a HP fan myself. Loved visiting the parks back in 2016. Planning on coming over again in 2019. Nice channel. 👌🏻
Omg this sounds so fun
ok 1. you have absolutely gorgeous hair!!! and 2. this sounds like SO much fun. i had no idea people could rent out the entire park for events and such. it'd be cool to be there while it's all mostly quiet :)
I love the Weasley's outfit, it so cute
You are the biggest ray of sunshine OMG
ahhh you’re so sweet, thank you!!
Very cool. I kind of figured you would have to know kind of a lot about Harry Potter to work there. XD
Nice to meet a cool Griffindor.
I'm Slytherin and proud. 🐍
You're so pretty and I love your personality. I can't believe they give you a quiz
I can't imagine how cool it would be to work there, when I went I had so much fun ❤️
your hair is almost as magical as harry potter itself xxx beautiful color :)
Oh my gosh that is so sweet! Thank you, love! :)
That all sounds so amazing
Jessica!!
I’m dying... I totally watched this before I knew you 😂😂
Good energy. Very informative vlog. Thanks!
Omg working there sounds like so much fun! I wish I lived in Florida so I could 😩 loved your video!
I absolutely loved my trip to Hogsmeade and still need to go back to see Diagon Alley. It was easily my favorite part of Universal! What a chance of a lifetime you had working there!
Yes you definitely need to go see Diagon!! It is truly magical! Thanks for watching!
This would literally be my dream job! When I went to the Harry Potter World in the UK I was on the verge of tears the entire time because I was so overwhelmed and amazed by it!😍For my last day of school coming up this May I'm dressing up as Hermione as well👌🏻I'm really looking forward to that!
Nice! Myself I used to work third party taking photos and working at the Gringotts ride. Always a challenge when the ride broke down though... I used to bring an owl bag with me to work and it really got some heads turning! 😂
This was so cozy to watch
This is the first video I have seen on your channel and it is absolutely amazing!! I'm surprised I haven't found your channel before. By the way, you're so pretty. You definitely could pass as a Weasley! This has inspired me for when I grow older to possibly try and get a job working at harry potter world :). Also great video I loved it
Thank you so much, Darling, I’m so happy you enjoyed it!! And thank you for the Weasley comment hahaa!
This is the first of your videos that I've watched and you are very nice and pretty Jess!
Thank you and thank you for watching Ava!! You’re so sweet! Have a great day, girly!!
i watched a 30 second ad without pressing the skip button for you. Now you know im dedicated

THIS SOUNDS SO FUNNNNNNNNNNNN girl this is my dream
