Sticky: a LEGIT way to look for cruise ship employment ?

Cruise Ship Employment

I've been on multiple websites & every single one seems to be phony, or a dead end. Any ideas??
I have not worked on a cruise ship but I have been on about 20 cruises and I usually talk to the staff, and usually about how work is going.

A few things I have learned are that if you are hired you have to sign a contract to work for 8 or 9 months straight. And that means 7 days a week and usually 10 to 12 hours a day and sometimes with a split shift that starts early in the morning and does not end until 10 or 11 PM. There are no Saturdays and Sundays off and you may get to go ashore in port stops on on occasions but not at every stop. After you complete your initial tour then you get 2 or 3 months off before you are to report back to the ship.

All of the cruise lines operating out of the US have jobs information and a link on their web home page. So for a starting point you need to read what they present on their web sites and then contact the cruise lines directly.

On the cruise lines' web sites you will find a link to jobs, employment, human resources or some such link that will give you information about their positions. And there are no fees or charges for information. Some sites even have current vacancies they are recruiting for. Several cruise lines have new ships coming out soon so opportunities will be there. Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Disney and some others will have new ships launched in the next couple years. Here are some links:

Carnival Cruise line is the parent company for several cruise lines including Princess, Carnival, Holland America, Cunard, Seabourn Cruise, and Costa Cruises. Carnival's Corporate offices are located in Miami, Florida.

So if you contact carnival you can also ask about the others.

PRINCESS: CUNARD: HOLLAND AMERICA COSTA:

Royal Caribbean is the parent cruise line for its partner cruise lines, Celebrity, Azamara, and some others. Their corporate offices are located in Miami, Florida. So in contacting RC you can ask about the others ROYAL CARIBBEAN:

http://www.royalcaribbean.com/gohome.d..... AZAMARA: CELEBRITY: NORWEGIAN:

http://www.ncl.com/

DISNEY: http://disneycruise.disney.go.com/dcl/.....

BEWARE OF WEB SITES ADVERTISING CRUISE SHIP EMPLOYMENT /JOBS THAT CHARGE A FEE !!!

They will take your money and you will not necessarily get a job. Another thing to do is to contact the concession that run the shops on the ships like the spa, photos, souvenir, gift and clothing shops.

Cruise ship jobs – Employers

Major employers

Following are profiles of major employers in cruise line industry:

Disney Cruise Line

Disney Cruise Line

Disney Cruise Line is a popular choice of families with children vacationers. However, their cruises offer Disney-style entertainment for all ages in form of adventurous activities onshore and onboard.

Costa Cruise Line

Costa Cruise Line

Costa Cruise Line specializes on wedding packages. It offers wedding ceremonies as well as honeymoons aboard any of their eleven cruise ships which are all designed in Italian style, promising a highly romantic experience for the couples and their wedding guests, assisted by professional cruise ship staff. As an alternative, wedding ceremonies are also possible to take place ashore, in many Caribbean ports of call.

The Costa Cruise Line fleet includes these liners: Costa Concordia, Costa Maqica, Costa Fortuna, Costa Mediterranea, Costa Atlantica, Costa Victoria, Costa Europa, Costa Romantica, Costa Classica, Costa Allegra, Costa Marina. The ships cover the destinations such as Atlantic Ocean, Baltic and Russia, Dubai and Suez Canal, Easter Caribbean, Easter Mediterranean, Far East, Norwegian Fjords, South America, Transatlantic, Western Caribbean, Western Mediterranean.

P&O Cruises

P&O Cruises

P&O Cruises is the best-known brand of a global company leader in the cruise industry called Carnival UK. Please note that like with most of the cruise lines operating in the industry, to work for any of the five brands of the Carnival UK (Princess Cruises, Cunard Line, P&O Cruises, Ocean Village, and P&O Cruises Australia), you are expected to have no legal restrictions on employment in the UK.

The five-ship fleet of the P&O Cruises consists of Aurora, Oriana, Arcadia, Artemis and Oceana. Each of the cruise ships run by the Carnival UK is staffed by around 15 000 men and women. The P&O Cruises liners offer voyages all around the world, sailing primarily to the Mediterranean, the Baltic, the Norwegian Fjords, the Caribbean and the Atlantic Islands.

Celebrity Cruises

Celebrity Cruises

Celebrity Cruises is an innovating cruise line which focuses on the three performance pillars of safety, service and style. Their cruise experience thus has a distinct taste of luxury. The Celebrity fleet consists of ten premium cruise ships with thousands of cruise job opportunities in return for career growth and captivating cruise experience.

Royal Caribbean International

Royal Caribbean International

Royal Caribbean International also belongs to the industry leaders. With corporate offices and customer service call centres located in Miami, Florida, and Information Technology Division situated not far, in Miramar, Florida, it offers land-based employment chances as well as cruise job opportunities onboard their world-class luxury ship for dynamic people eager to take up cruise job challenge and commitment. Like with most of the major cruise line companies, expect your employment with the Royal Caribbean to be a subject to drug testing, reference and criminal background checks.

Norwegian Cruise Line

Norwegian Cruise Line

Norwegian Cruise Line watches over operations onboard of the fleet of more than fourteen cruise ships within its brands NCL, NCL America and Orient Lines. There are some limitations and requirements to be granted a Freestyle Cruise job onboard a NCL America cruise liner (see How To Get A Job section). There are also differences between those three brands in terms of employment policy, which the cruise line authorities will explain to you at the time of hire. The company applies a customer service concept called STYLE - Service Teamwork and Yes Lead to Excellence. Like with all the major cruise lines, if your job performance is viewed as satisfactory, you will be leaving one season headed home with an employment contract for another one safe in your pocket. (see How To Get A Job section for details).

 

Great site, look at all the different cruise lines.
