Cruise Ship Job Interview Questions You Will be Asked
[ Posted July 29th, 2008 ]
There are plenty of websites on the internet that would have you believe that working on a cruise ship is a job for anyone and everyone.
I’m here to tell you this is simply not true… because not everybody is cut out for life aboard a cruise ship!
As a former hiring manager for several major cruise lines, I’ve interviewed many people who were brilliant at their job on land… yet, the answers they gave at the interview suggested that they could not live and work on cruise ships… so we didn’t hire them!
1. Could you live in a small room that you must share with one other person? (Explain why?)
2. Do you consider yourself adaptable? (offer examples)
3. Could you work away for 6 months? (why?)
4. Do you get sea sick?
5. Could you live and work in an enclosed environment that can often be difficult? (why?)
6. Could you cope with always being "on duty" whenever you’re in public areas of the ship? (why?)
7. Can you live and work within a team consisting of many different nationalities of people? (why?)
If you can answer each of these questions honestly and positively and prove that you are suitable for life at sea… then you will almost certainly give yourself a big advantage when it comes to getting hired by a cruise line company.
Save this email, print it off or make a note of those questions (you will probably not find this information anywhere else). When you’ve done that, think carefully about the answers you would give… because answering these questions correctly could literally make or break your chances of getting a job on a cruise ship that pays you to travel the world!
