@@carlosvega9916 Hi Carlos! Yes, they absolutely will consider military veterans. My husband is a vet, and I know a few other former panelists who have had military experience. Check out the eligibility requirements on the website. Also, it is an unpaid position, but you are offered a reward trip. I hope that you apply! 😊
I just submitted my R2 application! I am now in the waiting room hoping to get to R3! The interview scares the crap out of me though. I am looking for more on that, how much I'll be quizzed on and have to know off the top of my head. I'll freeze!
You and I were both newbies in 2021! I made it to R3 that year, and R2 last year. Hopefully 2024 is my year! I’ve loved watching you flourish with the rest of the planFam this last year. ❤️
Hi there! I'm currently in the R2 waiting room! Everyone is expecting news for R3 tomorrow and I just know I'm won't be sleeping tonight while waiting in the anticipation!!! Loooooved watching your video and seeing all of the things you got to be a part of. How amazing for you! I about cried with you when I saw your notification video.
Hi Brittney! I know how nerve wracking the R2 to R3 period can be. I’m so glad that I could share my experience while you wait. Helping Guests via planDisney is so rewarding! I’m sending pixie dust your way that you get good news (hopefully this week! Eek!). ✨✨✨
I loved this video so much. I have applied 11 times and made R3 thrice. The second time, I had the flash cards (and agree that it is a great tip to ditch those). I also have always been a little over-the-top in my videos (but I'm being myself). Hoping to one day be a part of the amazing community that all the panelists talk about.
Hey! I’m happy that you enjoyed the video. ✨ Based on what you’ve told me, it sounds like they can see your light! ❤️ Keep shining and one day I hope that your puzzle piece fits. It’s cliche, but it’s truly worth the wait.
So sorry I'm late on this one! I love hearing about your PlanDisney story and am so happy for you that this all happened for you! When I was prepping for my spring trip this year and googling questions I saw your name quite a few times and was like "YAY! I "know" her!!" it was so cool and so happy for you. You've been doing such a great job! I would have cried my eyes out on round 3 too lol! I LOVE that you played the Fantastic music. Amazing!! I love how they were there with balloons to congratulate you. Your reaction is so sweet! And AMAZING job on the half marathon!!! I loved your video you submitted. Great tips on the proofreading! Amazing and super helpful video!! :)
OMG so glad I found your channel as I just got the news today that I made it to Round 2 🎉 I cried like a big old baby … I’ve applied every year and never made it past application. Today’s news that I made Round 2 is so surreal 😊
I’m so happy that you found me here, too! Congrats on making it to Round 2! So many apply so this is HUGE. Remember to continue to use Disney nomenclature and to lean into what makes you you. I am so, so excited to follow your journey. ✨
Youre amazing my dear, that was so detailed and I am so hooked into this! Glad you shared your experience with us and for the tips as well, so helpful! Thank you for this video dear, keep it up!❤
Loved this video so much! I’m applying tomorrow and I just know I would love this so much! I’m a big Disney nerd from Ireland and I’ve been coming to Walt Disney World for years! I’ve always wanted to be a Disney planner and write a book so surely this is the perfect combo?😂
Hey Emma! I’m so glad that you enjoyed the video! 💕 Disney planning + writing = dream gig. And the people you’ll meet along the way make it even better! Good luck ✨
I applied and made it to round 2! I’m so excited, nervous and happy crying! I am praying I get to be a panelist! I love writing, I want to make magic for others and be a part of the Plan Disney panelist family! 💖 I’m hoping myself shines through!
Thank you so much for this great video and helpful suggestions. I am so happy you became a Panelist. Your videos are a joy to watch and the planDisney answers are spot on. I will be applying again this year. I've made it to round 2 twice and each year is a learning experience. Hopefully, my yEAR will be just around the riverbend. I'll be online also, chEARing on the applicants for the Class of 2024.
Thank you so much for making this video! This is my first year applying and I’ve just been told that I’ve made it to Round 2 which I’m super excited and also nervous for!
I applied for the first time this year. I know that I’m up against some people that have been applying for years, but I won’t stop now. I can talk about Disney all dang day! I just love it. This was a really cool vid. ❤
Hi Jaimee! It’s possible for first-year applicants to make it all the way! No matter the result, I love how much we learn about ourselves in this process and that we get a chance to share our magic with others-even in our applications! Cheering you on! ✨
This is my third time applying, my second time making it to Round 2! So nervous about the video part. Your video was so helpful and comforting for this crazy process.
Hello! I’m so happy to hear that I could provide some comfort. It’s quite the process, but it’s a fun ride! Congrats on making it to Round 2! I’m cheering you on ✨
Thanks for the awesome video! This is my first year applying, and I am so excited to have made it to the second round. I have my answers typed up, read through them a few times (including out loud), and am just waiting for my wife to get home from work so she can look them over. I've got the points I want to hit with my video which I plan to record tomorrow.
Congrats, Kevin! Out of thousands, they want to learn more about you-that’s a big deal. I always liked to read my answers out loud, too. It’s so important for it to sound authentic to you. I love that your family is cheering you on! Let me tell you, this “job” takes a village. Let me know if you have any other questions about the process. Excited to see what happens next!
@@momisinthemood1133 Thanks! This morning was take after take of trying to get the video under the 1 minute limit. After far too many attempts and bloopers, I succeeded. It wasn't perfect, but it showed me for me, so I guess in a way that is perfect. I got it moved over to the computer and realized that I was at 58mb, just over the 50mb limit. These hurdles just didn't stop, but neither do I. Played around with several different video editing programs, found a way to get it under, but they all want to add watermarks. Right now I'm hoping I can find one of my friends that does video editing so that I can submit without watermark/logo. This is why you don't wait until the last minute. Glad I have 2 more days! If I have to, I guess I will have to register with one of these sites to get a watermark free video.
@@kevinlaslie9174 There are always hurdles but you’re really rolling with the punches! The whole compressing thing makes me dizzy, but maybe you can find something that just slightly reduces the video quality. You’ve got this!
Hi! I’ve known about the panel for a few years and time escaped me this year and I missed the application period! I’m applying next year!! Do you have to apply every year once you make it, or do you get to stay on as a panelist every year?
Are you applying this year to be a planDisney panelist? Let me know! Also, if you have any questions, visit planDisneysearch.com or ask me here ✨
I submitted my application! I feel that this was my best application so far (try #5)!
@@Sathiyyah Yes, I love hearing that, Tai! ✨ I’m cheering you on! ❤️

Love your story of how you became a panelist! How long was your Round 3 video interview? Who selects the new class of panelists every year?
Thank you for stopping by to say hello! 🤗 The interview time with the selection team varies, but I think mine was 20ish minutes. It goes by quickly!
