How to get a job on a cruise ship?

okay well im only in 10th grade right now , but i was wonder if you have to go to college to get a job on a cruise ship . and if you do what college would be good to go to ? also is it hard to get a job on royal carribean ?
It all depends on what you want to do on the cruise ship. If you want to do service work (waitress, maid service) or even cruise staff you don't necessarily have to have a college degree. If you want to do entertainment you should have some experience. It is hard as an American to get jobs on most cruise liners as they are not "flagged" in America. (If you have ever been on a cruise you will notice that alot of the staff are foreign) BUT Norwegian Cruise Line Hawaii cruises, are the first US flagged ship in over 50 years! I had a friend that worked on NCL in Hawaii. To find out more info on cruise jobs check out their web sites. Some even have videos on what it's like to work on a ship and what to do to apply. Here are some of the ones that I found that might interest you to look at. Working on a cruise ship can be LONG hours, many days in a row. YOu work in contracts. You may get a 3 month contract for one ship and then 3 months on another ship and then who knows. And generally you have to share a room with one or more room mates depending on what job you have. But while you are young it will be awesome like going away to college or camp. A lot of hard work, but a lot of fun! GOOD LUCK!!!
