How to be an Imagineer?

Does anyone know what it takes to be an Imagineer?
Seriously, is there a criteria? The reason I'm asking is b/c I have already graduated college and older than the graduating bachelor degree senior.
If anyone could help, I would sincerely appreciate it.

There's a website http://www.imagineering.org that looks like it might be helpful. Looks like it's got some good links.

Thank you for the link. I knew I wanted to work for Disney at some point in my life, but this last trip to WDW confirmed it.

Re: How to be an Imagineer?

Welcome yohopirateslife.
Good question. I am trying to entice one of my sons to want to become an imagineer so that his Dopey mother can get into the park and stay on property for employee discount any time she wants to
Thanks for that link Andrea.

Re: How to be an Imagineer?

Welcome aboard the DC matey! Are you sure that you want to become an imagineer when being a pirate can be so challenging and rewarding?

Re: How to be an Imagineer?

I highly recomend you read the Book "Imagineering, A Behind the dreams look and making the magic real" It's the greatest book I've ever read in my life. I also want to be an imagineer, the best thing you can do is probably just email the head quarters in Glendale (I think it's glendale, but it might be burbank) and ask them all the questions you can.

Good Luck
