Walt Disney Company assessment centre?

I've just been invited to an interview at Disney's EMEA assessment centre in Hammersmith and I have no idea what to expect as this is probably the most important job interview I've had to date.

I don't suppose anyone on here has gone through the same experience with them and could give me some tips on if I need to do anything in particular before I head down to London or if there is anything I should prepare ahead of time.

Thanks in advance.

Have they given you an itinerary as to what to expect e.g group case study, presentation, technical or competency interview etc,?

The day consists of group exercises, an excel based test and a one to one interview

Thank you, the experience was good overall. Depending on what internship you’re applying for you may get an excel test so if you have one practice for that. Other than that just make sure you research Disney as a company and know your CV well as you may be questioned about certain aspects from it. I hope it goes well for you :smile:
