KissARat Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Got my Goldent Ticket, but I don't think I will get casted :(. My buddies who auditioned on the last day already got there casting email already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsarejerks Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Is there any way to contact universal to find out definitively? Because I auditioned on the last day as well but really need to know so I can schedule classes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XNaut Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 I think the cast email has already been decided. Everyone who got their cast email are now supposed to update their application and it must be done by Sunday and then they're supposed to wait for another email for paperwork sessions that comes in July 25-July 29.

Ghostsarejerks Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 So if we didn't get one we can assume we didn't get a part? Especially considering if you're a first timer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XNaut Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Yes, I have seen some people from last year and 2 years ago who didn't get cast email and then they end up getting an email around September or October saying they didn't get cast. I'm a first timer and I got cast. I really don't know how they cast people but I think they pick you if you fit the height and if you look like a certain character from a horror movie.

KissARat Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Casting will still continue for several weeks according to the paper they gave us with the QR Code. Unless, they casted a bunch of people already.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsarejerks Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Hopefully, I really wanna work a Haunt this year, I'd do Knotts if I knew I wasn't cast at HHN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetsMakeBiskuts Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 If you haven't heard back from them, you're still being considered. I'd expect they're going to do another round of casting emails next week (hopefully), but I have no idea how many people they casted this week. Being in purgatory sucks big time, I was there two years ago and had to wait until late September to find out I couldn't be cast. They offered it to me but it was the one weekend I had a conflict so it didn't work out. best of luck and hopefully they'll send out more emails soon.

XNaut Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 On my cast email it says I'm supposed to update my application and I will get an email back to schedule for my new hire paperwork. I didn't get an email back. It says, "Update your application and once you've provided this information, you will receive an email to schedule your new hire paperwork. Paperwork sessions will begin on Monday, 7/25 and run through Friday 7/29. It is critical that you complete this step immediately to receive the paperwork session sign up and instructions." Am I supposed to get an email before Monday or am I supposed to get an email around Monday-Friday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you haven't recieved it yet, I would call staffing services or try and email them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't respond to me tomorrow or Tuesday, do you think it will be a good idea if I just come unexpected to the staffing service office or during the paperwork sessions saying I got cast but never got an email back for paperwork session schedule? In case they don't get back to me on Monday or Tuesday, what's their address? Edited July 24, 2016 by XNaut grammar mistake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the water-play area and go up the stairs opposite of the escalator and you will come to a building that says something like "staffing services".

LetsMakeBiskuts Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 They have a list and expect certain people at certain times. That being said, I don't know if it would be a bad idea to just show up. If you can only make a certain time (such as tomorrow morning) then I'd say just show up and explain to them. I'll be there tomorrow at 10, only time I could do. They're generally pretty understanding and aren't crazy strict with this beginning stuff because they know it can be a little confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LetsMakeBiskuts Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I heard from some people I know internally at universal that there's still more emails to go out and they may go out at the end of this week. They also will send out more after the new auditions. If you haven't heard back yet don't loose hope! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsarejerks Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I'm so nervous, they should translate these real life crises into a maze.

LetsMakeBiskuts Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Just now, KissARat said: There's still a chance for emails to go out for people who auditioned on the first day? Yes! I know quite a few rehires who auditioned that haven't heard back yet and I'm assuming most of them will or at least a good number. Until you get a "you have NOT been cast email", you could be cast at anytime, but there are supposed to be more emails going out soon (I've heard through the grapevine). Takes them a long time to sort through everybody. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
