2026 planDisney Search Round 2 Questions

Round 2 of the 2026 planDisney panel search is now open. Applicants who made it this far are now wrestling with 100-word written responses and one-minute videos. Written responses must be 100 words or fewer, and the sample questions need to be answered as if they’ll appear on the planDisney site. That’s not easy with those limited word counts. But those who can do it effectively will be invited back for round 3 in about a month.
