Today I Applied To Yellow Shoes!!!

EmpressJenny · 04-26-2005

Well, I got some guts together, and I applied to the Disney Yellow Shoes Creative Group. Although it was directed at the ad that wanted someone with 5+ years of experience, I sent a cover letter talking about how good I was at school, top marks, head of the class, "if you're ready to put a top-notch creative mind to work from the ground up for the best in the business, I'm the candidate for you!", yada yada yada. So it'll probably never even be looked at, but at least I tried.

Cavey · 04-26-2005

That's awesome, Jenny. At least you can say you tried.

Disneyfever · 04-26-2005

That's great Jenny! Maybe if we all send positive thoughts your way, you'll get the job! I'm crossing my fingers for you. I know it would be a dream come true for you. Good luck!

EmpressJenny · 04-26-2005

It really would be a dream come true. I just want them to at least reply to me. Then I can hound them until the end of time to hire me

Did you list your membership in DC has a strength?

Good luck EJ! I hope they understand what a asset you would be to the company!

Thanks for the encouragement everyone! I've attached the standard form letter I guess they send everyone who applies. It was just exciting to have SOMETHING in my mailbox from them!
