Easiest/Slowest Internship I've Ever Done
Easiest/Slowest Internship I've Ever Done
Free park access Competitive pay Other employees are passionate about what they do. Employees respect you.
Little to no work. A lot of waiting around. Irrelevant work. Expected to be an intern after graduation (for a year with no benefits/sick time). Little chance of growth. Expected to ask for work or be told you should know what you are doing. Little intern events. Housing needs to be gutted; it's clear it has not been properly cleaned in years (filled with mold upon arrival).
The internship program needs a lot of improvement in the technology space. Make sure the intern teams have something for them to work on. Make the interns feel a little more appreciated. I sat around and waited for work more than I had work to do. It was clear to me there is no growth as a Software Engineer as a Cast Member at Disney. I would need to be a contractor to get any work.

Disney Interview Questions
Disney Interview Experiences
Software Intern
Initial conversation with hiring manager in the form of a phone interview. It took about thirty minutes. We talked about my resume and prior experiences that were relevant to the role I was applying to.
Software Engineer
The interview questions were very practical, unlike those at some other high-level companies. I did not feel like they were trying to put me through the wringer, as they could have.
Data Engineer
Interviewed through a consultation company. One round with Disney leadership (Data Team Lead, Software Team Lead, Project Manager), where they took turns asking questions. Next round was with a Data Analyst and Data Engineer, in a similar format.
