Walt Disney Internship

There are actually three separate internships with the Walt Disney Company. The first two are called the Disney College Program and are based either at Walt Disney World in Orlando or Walt Disney Land in California. They are the same program just in different parks and the details of each program are slightly different. The third of the internships offered through the Disney Company is a Professional internship. All three programs are paid internships.

The College Program specifically offers some unique experiences verses other internship programs. As with any internship this program will get your foot in the door with a multi-national and well established company providing numerous opportunities for networking, meeting different students from all over the world, as well as career exploration. It is paid, as well as offers housing and some pretty sweet benefits such as free admission to the parks for yourself and a few friends. The Company also provides free transportation to and from the parks as well as a few different locations in the area such as to Wal-Mart or another grocery store but having your own vehicle is allowed as well. It is a full time position but you have a 5 day week with 2 days off to do whatever you would like whether that is laying by the pool, going into the parks with friends and family, or utilizing other utilities the company provides for you.

In regards to the different positions the Program has to offer there is a wide range covering almost all majors. I initially was a hostess at a full service restaurant and then picked up a second position dealing with the restaurant deposits and the safe in the restaurant. It was a lot of responsibility but a learning experience as well. It's not a program I would recommend to everyone, not everyone is cut out for the same experience. However, it is definitely worth looking into and a wonderful experience with a very diverse company.
