That's what we're assuming will happen. I think she will give Disney set days she can work, then fill in at US/IoA. Even part-time would be terrific!!
QSFB/Custodial/attractions make up the largest portion of the College Program. It used to be anyone who put even the slightest interest in custodial got put in custodial.
It is true that if you really don't want a role it's best to put zero interest as they can place you in any role you show any interest in and they havea need.
My DDs have always been offered something that caught them off guard. One DD has been an assistant mgr at a large specialty clothing store. She thought for sure they would place her in merchandise. Nope! LOL
There are many jobs within QSFB...cleaning/restocking the condiment bars, refilling supplies whether it's food or whatever, wiping down tables, emptying trash cans in dining rooms, greeting/directing guests esp at busy times, filling the orders and handing orders over to guests, taking orders/cashiering, working grills/fryers, the carts.... They can get multiple jobs in one shift (similar to how those working attractions get moved around within the attraction) or they can get one job for an entire shift.
Most of the kids we know who worked "movable" food carts weren't as happy with the assignment a little later. During the warm months, there is no a/c at all and it requires quick mental math which in the heat can get to them fast when you have a long line.
From what we have witnessed (with multiple programs) is that very very few CPs (even ones with impeccable work records!) are offered full time. They are more likely to be offered P/T. And the bad part to that is the P/T CMs used to count on getting extra hours from the shifts that the CPs wanted to give away but can't anymore.
Dd actually put custodial as an interest. She has had friends do custodial and loved it! And character work/attendant. But nope, she got attractions. She loves her job, but she had experience in character/attendant work. She was friends with Foghorn Leghorn, ScoobyDo and Sylvester the Cat the past two summers! So, we figure they like to put you in different spots than what you have experience in.
