I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Universal Studios (West Hollywood, CA)
Interview
Audition & Interview, required endurance & stamina, energy, character commitment, & passion. Audition for your role, if selected you went through another audition and interview, then they take your measurements. It was fun! Practice Animating & Stamina.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Universal Studios (Studio City, CA) in Jul 2015
Interview
They audition you in a large room. It's fun. But they string veterans along and poorly use our time. Some of us they'll hold onto just in case they're not able to find a satisfactory replacement. Once they find said replacement, they drop us. If you're not going to cast scare actors from the get go, don't waste their time and encourage them to audition again. Let them know at the end of the season.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The audition is fairly straightforward. You pretend to die.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Universal Studios (Universal City, CA) in Oct 2013
Interview
Apply online, pick a date to audition, show up, do light paperwork, get called into room to quickly audition (this weeds out bad actors), do a more intensive audition (act like I'm being attacked, act like the attacker, scream, etc.). After they let you know you've been hired, the training day consists of presentations about Universal's culture, what is expected, how the event works. All of HR issues are covered well. You sit at a computer to complete your hire-on process, get your picture taken and are told when to come in for a costume fitting.
