A new seasonal worker program has also been launched which initially required applicants to have previously completed an International Program in order to be eligible, but this requirement was soon waived due to insufficient applications. Over the years, several International Programs were operated and subsequently suspended, a new one was created for Disney's Animal Kingdom theme park and ultimately in 2004, all the Walt Disney World International Programs were combined into two new all-encompassing programs, namely the Walt Disney World Cultural Representative Program and the Walt Disney World International College Program. In some cases, applicants may have to travel abroad to meet with a recruiter from Disney Worldwide Services. Presentations outline key components of the program and provide further information on the program's offerings. Qualified candidates receive an invitation approximately four weeks prior to the presentation and interview and in some cases, an invitation is issued at the end of the phone interview. Some countries hold a preliminary phone interview before issuing an invitation to a scheduled Disney International Programs presentation and interview. Applicants contact one of the contracted in-country agencies that assist with international applications or the International Casting office with a rГ©sumГ© and cover letter.
