Where can I find a cruise line job?

How can I find job with a reputable cruise line?

  • Answer:

    It depends on what kind of job you want to have. If you want to do a specialty job like IT or dive instructor, you need special training or a degree. If you want to work on cruise entertainment staff, you need to be VERY comfortable working with different people and able to make a fool of yourself at a moment's notice. Just check out the employment section of most cruise line websites. I used to work as a dive instructor for Norwegian Cruise Line and I applied through the website by sending my resume. It took about 9 months but I finally got a phone interview and was hired the same day. The wages for specialty jobs are usually very good. I got started at $2000/month. That doesn't sound incredible but when you consider that I don't have any expenses while working onboard the ships, all that money goes into the bank and can be very easy to save.

Most of the web sites of major cruise lines have employment sections. Check out Royal Carribean, Carnival, and Norwegian for starters.

Good luck, on a recent Cruise we talked to a number of staff about this, and it seems that the rules governing many aspects of ship operation are determined by the country whose flag they fly. One of these rules is in regards to staff wages, which are based on minimum wages of that country. So, most cruise ships do not operate under the American flag, so wages are pretty low, and the only Americans we noticed working were in very few, higher ranking, positions.
