Shanghai Disney Resort will launch an extensive recruitment campaign in the city later this month to prepare for its grand opening in 2016.

An aerial view of Shanghai Disney Resort taken on Thursday shows construction work in progress at the resort, especially the iconic building -- Enchanted Storybook Castle. The castle will be the tallest and largest castle ever built at a Disney theme park. The first Disney resort in China's mainland has been under construction for four and a half years, and is expected to open in spring next year.



The job fairs will be held at the Shanghai Talent Tower in Zhabei District to attract talent from Shanghai and from across China with experience in the tourism and services industry, according to the resort.

The four-day job fair between October 21 and 24 will be the first of several to be held in the city in the coming months.

"We look forward to hiring and training great local talent who will deliver warm hospitality and renowned guest service to help our guests," said Philippe Gas, general manager of the resort.

The job fair will recruit a large number of local talents for each of the resort's lines of business, including ride operations, guest services, custodial and cleaning, retail operations, food and beverage operations, engineering & maintenance, security, hotel operations and entertainment.

The first round of the resort's job fair will welcome pre-registered candidates, who should complete the online application procedure from October 21 to 22 and will open for all candidates the following two days.

Shanghai Disney Resort currently has a team of over 1,500 local cast members and Imagineers working on the development and operation of the resort.

The team will expand rapidly and create thousands of job opportunities in the following months to support the start of operations of the resort. More information can be found at: SHDRCareers.com.
