Big Event Showcase / Re: Fanimaid Café 2014 Official

« on: February 26, 2014, 09:37:41 PM »

Hi everyone, Tiffany from Fanimaid Cafe staff here!

Just a thing to add, when coming to the tryouts, just wear whatever you feel like represents you! You don't have to wear business/interview attire if you don't want to

Staff is looking forward to meeting all of you girls this year! I will be at the second SJ tryout for sure~

See you girls soon <3

There is actually a place we set up to put all our stuff. Not sure how the setup is this year but I'm pretty sure we'll have somewhere to put our stuff.

There aren't mandatory dates to do so, usually the group leader of that performance schedules something but thats something more you guys do individually.

What times/dates is Fanimaid Cafe open?  What times would we be expected to be working?  Are the shifts 4 hours each?

Fanimaid Cafe is only open on Saturday and Sunday. I believe (and I hope I have the time right since I always go early/stay late) it opens at 11AM and 6PM. The shifts are about 3-4 hours each but theres a certain time that all the maids will be required to work which is around 12 or 1 since we need girls to work at the cafe while other girls perform at Fanimaid Live.

Its a bit different because last year it was near the Hilton, not the Marriott. However I think its better to enter the Marriott.

Hope to see more girls come to the future tryouts!

We appreciate that some girls came even though there was an event going on~

The emails and everything will be sent after all the tryouts are finished so while we're going through everyone, please wait patiently~ One of us will post when all the e-mails are sent out.

I think it would depend on what event but no matter what it is, if theres something conflicting with coming to the mandatory meeting, we would just ask that you give us an email or talk to Jun so it can be worked out. There are girls that come a bit late or leave a little sometimes though.

Usually these mandatory meetings on the Friday is around 5 or 6-ish. They're not in the afternoon or anything since people are busy and have school or work. I have finals that day too so no worries if you're busy earlier. And if you have reasons like school or work and you really can't make it (but it has to be a good legit reason since this meeting is very important!) then if you tell staff, things can be arranged. The meeting last about... maybe 2 hours. Lots of explaining, calling out names to see who is there, stuff like that.

If the maid outfit is approved by staff, then it can be handmade. I myself have made (or got it made more like... haha) my own maid outfits and it hasn't been bought by anywhere. So if you get in, you can send in the design to get it approved.

The age has changed from then. We have had maids that are over 26. As long as it doesn't affect serving the patrons, I think its fine.

Out of curiosity, what is the age range of the maids?  Can one be too old to sign up?

You can't be too old to tryout. You just can't be under 16.

Hey guys,

What do the tryouts consist of? Is there any sort of dance or skill we should practice?

Also, where do the dresses come from? :U Do we buy them on our own?

The tryouts consist of us asking questions about yourself. Its easy questions, nothing to be afraid about.

As for the dancing and such, thats not needed for this tryout.

The dresses you have to buy on your own and it has to be approved by Fanimaid Staff after you get into the cafe. All these things will be discussed at the tryout as well~

Oh, and make sure to come in the clothes that you like or think that describes you. Theres no real need for a super proper suit or anything (unless thats your style).

Don't want to write anything long so heres the summary of my experience...

I joined Fanimaid Cafe in 2011 because I loved the maid cafe experience I got in Japan. I also love performing so I decided to try out. I had no self esteem and not much friends that were into otaku culture so I thought it would also be great to know people that did. To my surprise, I got in, made a lot of friends, got to experience a wonderful time at Fanime and even got to see Momoi Halko. Since then I've loved the cafe and the people... I joined Fanimaid staff last year and even if it was a lot of work, I was happy to see so many girls wanting to join the cafe and the great result at the end. Because of Fanime and Fanimaid Cafe, I have life long friends and have experienced many things.

I hope to see a good turnout this year as well~ If you're trying to decide because you don't have the confidence or you're not sure, just tryout! You won't regret it!

A follow-up e-mail has just been sent out to all the girls that tried out this year.

Congratulations for the girls that got in!

There were so many girls that tried out this year, so for the girls that didn't get in, remember that this isn't personal (in fact it was a lot of competition, more than previous years I think) and you are welcome to try again next year.

Hopefully more info and introductions and such will be sent out soon. I'm very very very excited to see the new girls this year and meet them. I'm also super excited for performances and what people want to do.

Usually it shouldn't take too long but due to the amount of girls, it might take longer.

It might be better to tell staff before you sign up for a number for interviews.
