What Cruise Ships are good to get a job on?
March 17th, 2010I am 18 years old and I am taking time to make some cash before i start college. i looked into some jobs and in the end, i have heard cruise ships are awsome to work on.
I Really want some ideas for what cruise ships people preffer to work for and how to apply. also, perhaps some know easier ways of getting cruise ship jobs than others… that would be awsome.
The big cruise companies (Royal Carribean, Princess Cruises, Carnival Cruises etc) all have pretty high criteria for successful applicants. You will find that you MUST have previous shore based experience for your chosen role at sea. Even if you do have shore based experience but no ship based background, you should expect to start in a level entry position. Working on a cruise ship is very different to a land based equivalent which is why cruise lines look for sea based experience first.
If you want to become a Junior Assistant Purser you would need a year or two experience as a hotel receptionist. Even if you were a Senior Receptionist or even a Reception Manager on land, it is highly unlikely that you would be offered a ship based position of the same seniority and you will start at the bottom of the ladder again. Having said that promotion is rapid if you are good at your job.
If you want to work in housekeeping onboard a cruise ship, again I would imagine that you would need a year or two land based experience in a hotel of a comparative four or five star standard.
It really depends what job you want to go for, which department you want to work in. Also bear in mind that cruise contracts are typically six months – so dependent on how long you have before college starts will affect your success in getting a position.
I don’t know of any easy way to get a job on a cruise ship but do not fall for any of there internet scams that are so prevalent, the ones that ask you to pay money up front. From experience the best way to go is direct to the cruise lines themselves or send your CV to their legitimate recruitment agencies which are based throughout the world. Use the web to find the email or postal addresses for the cruise lines and recruitment agencies, just don’t give anyone any money as it’s usually a scam.
Larger ships offer more opportunities to meet people but the smaller cruise ships can offer a better standard of living.

February 16th, 2010
Check out the video on Royal Caribbean above, enjoy…
Going on a cruise ship as a passenger is a wonderful experience, loads of fun, excitement. What does it take to make the cruise ship run smoothly so the passenger can have there wonderful dream cruise. A lot of people have strange ideas, that the crew don’t sleep on-board, where they get these ideas from. They are there on board living in crew quarters, obviously not as nice as passenger areas, but the newer ships have some nice facilities. Doing cruises jobs, there are a lot of things going for it, but of course you have the opposite as well, like anything else in life, at the end of the day its what you make of anything in life.
Things going for it, doing Cruises Jobs
The first and foremost thing about the job is the wonderful traveling bit, see the world for free and still get paid, wow. The beauty is that you are in a different place everyday, you wake-up, and there you are in the Caribbean the sun shining. The contracts vary from the officers that get the shorter contracts, to the staff & crew that get anything from 6 to 9 months. The next thing number 2 is that you don’t have rental or electricity bills to be concerned about, accommodation is free plus your food, no worrying about sitting in peak hour traffic, catching the train, bus. You get to save a lot, if you don’t spend it all ashore in the gorgeous ports of call. The third thing is you get to meet so many people from all over the world, make friends for life, you learn about all these different cultures. Imagine having a cabin mate from Nepal or some equally exotic place in the world, no need to go there you can learn so much from them, if you allow yourself.
The downside of doing Cruises Jobs
There is always a downside to any job unfortunately where ever you are in the world, same as doing cruises jobs. Homesickness, it is natural, especially the first time away from your familiar surroundings, even worse if you got kids and are married. The discipline on-board can be quite hard as well, cabin inspections, mandatory boat-drills,
crew boat drills, eating in the specified eating times our tummies don’t always appreciate that. The hours can be quite tiring, standing on your feet, constantly having to have that smile, being happy, it can drain you, but just think of going ashore and seeing these beautiful places. Like I said before, it is what you make out of life in general, if you look on cruises jobs as a wonderful experience, a once in a lifetime opportunity, where you get to travel and see the world make wonderful friends for life. It is all in you mindset, if you worked at home, there are downside things and positive things, but where would you get to wake up in another country or place everyday.

All of the cruise lines hire staff people from all over the world. The lines can sometimes have people from 200 different countries in postions from cooks to security and cruise directors and entertainers. You need to just visit the cruise line web sites and then click on the link that says employment or human resources. They will tell you how to find jobs with them.

Cruise Casinos — Cruiseship Casino Jobs
January 1st, 2010As cruise ships proliferate, the major cruise lines are constantly looking for qualified staff to fill a variety of positions in their shipboard casinos. More than 3,000 dealers and assorted personnel are now employed in these floating casinos, and while a friendly, outgoing personality is a clearly stated job requirement for cruise ship dealers, many seem genuinely happer in their work than a number of dealers we have come across in land-based casinos.
The major fringe benefit of the job is the obvious: the chance to visit a variety of exotic destinations that cruise passengers pay thousands of dollars to see. And when ships are in port (where the ship’s casino is almost always closed), most of the casino workers generally are free to go ashore and sightsee, snorkle, sunbathe (or even visit the local casinos as a player).
Another major attraction is the ability (for those who choose) to save most of their pay and tips, since room and meals and pretty much everything they need while onboard ship is provided at no charge.
Onboard ship, casino staff generally live two to a small cabin, and dine and relax in crew areas. (Be sure to check: one major cruise line bunks casino four and even five to a cabin on some of its ships — not, from several first-hand accounts, a pleasant experience.)
Unlike many cruise ship employees, casino staff often are allowed to use the ship’s guest recreational facilities in their spare time.
Cruise casino staff generally enter into a four-to-six month “contract” to work on a given ship, after which they take a few weeks off before entering into a new contract to work on the same or another of the cruise line’s ships.
For the most part, the major cruise lines are looking to fill casino positions with men and women with casino experience. Dealers in particular are expected to have experience in dealing several table games.
Among the positions available on cruise ships are:
- Casino managers and assistant casino managers;
- Casino dealers (blackjack, baccarat, roulette, craps, poker);
- Casino technicians (responsible for maintaining slot machines and other casino devices);
- Casino cashiers;
- Casino hosts.
Below are links to several companies that hire casino staff for cruise ships.
