I had my interview with Disney on Thursday, it went splendidly! After some information was given the interviewer asked roles I was most interested in persuing. I mentioned operations, marchandise and hospitality quickly but then confessed I would most like to be a character. From there the interview became more specialized ( Read more... )

I don't know if it's true, but Will told me that the characters at Disney are all over 5' 10" [I was pissed cuz I'm 5' 8" & would kill to be a character] so that they appear 'larger then life'.. the only exception is Ariel.

Who would you want to be? I think being a character would be such an awesome job.

On the Disney web site, it says "Height ranges are between 4'8" and 6'3" with added consideration to candidates between 4'8" - 5'0"..... so I think the characters all have unique heights! Like, Goofy is super tall, but Minnie (and the seven dwarves...haha) is around my height of 5'0.

I only know this because I am 5'0 and I really want to be a character!!! :)

Oh, I wasn't specific enough. I meant characters as in like.. Cinderella & Snow White.. not actual character costumes like Goofy & Mickey Mouse & such. I wouldn't want to be in a character costume but I'd LOVE to be a princess.

Ohhhhh... yes, well that makes sense then.... I think the only shorter girl characters are ones like Alice from Alice in Wonderland.

Thanks Krissy, me too, that would be aweosme, but it'd be pretty damn cool to suit up as chipmunk too :-D

What role choices did you end up discussing with your interviewer?

Character Attendant, Operations, Merchandise, Hospitality =)

I'm in the height range for fur characters "Chipmunk and friends" so that would be mostly Chip and Dale and a few side characters like Winnie the Pooh and Piglet. As for face characters I'm a little on the short side, but I have seen princesses as short as 5'4 with Snow White and Aurora being the shortest. Its also possible to be Wendy or Alice with my height but I'm unsure of my physical characteristics matching theirs!
