Reflected on my wife’s illustrious 35-year Disney career. After her first year, she then spent 34+ years in Disney Human Resources.
Ten consecutive years in Disney Casting. Casting is the outside world’s equivalent to an Employment/Hiring department.
She was the Casting Operations Area Manager when we opened the brand new Casting Center along Interstate 4 in 1989.
During the next two decades, the hourly Cast hiring interviewers used an acronym to ensure they consistently covered the same four non-negotiables with every applicant. At one point, the acronym changed – why it took so long is anyone’s guess. Note the content didn’t change, just the way we remember it.
