If you go to their site they will say that the only way to apply for positions is to use their online job application tool but I'm going to let you in on a "secret". Nobody gets hired through those things. Not just in animation, but in almost any industry. Especially with big companies like Turner. They get so many unsolicited applications every day that they'd never be able to sift through them if they wanted, which they don't. There are basically two ways to get a job making your own cartoons in a place like that.

1. Go to a prominent animation school. You don't do this to actually learn how to animate, you can do that on your own. The real reason you go there is to get in good with the instructors who, if it's a decent school, will either be ex-industry professionals or people with good industry contacts. These guys will (if you're not shit) help you make contacts in the industry and help you land internships and student positions which you can then develop into a proper job once you graduate.

2. Self produce stuff and post it online while taking any contract work you can find to build up a portfolio and reputation. Eventually if you consistently do good work you should be able to build the contacts that going to school would have given you which then gives you an entry point into the industry.

In both cases it is highly, highly, highly unlikely that you will ever be producing your own shows. The majority of animators toil in obscurity for their entire career. If you are very lucky and work hard and keep pitching material you might eventually get your shot but even then it's not a given.

Oh and I should also mention that animation is one of those industries that is terribly over saturated with young talent. There are far more people looking for work than there are jobs available and thousands of people entering the field every year. It is an extremely competitive and low paying industry.

Good advice anon. I wonder if I'll be able to get to go to an art school

I wish it could just be interviews and portfolios but oh well.
