How To Work on a Cruise Ship: Resume and Cover Letter

[@woahdaniel]

Hey thanks for this! Can't believe I didn't think of working for cruise lines before!

[@TouristtoLocal]

Glad I could help!

[@woahdaniel]

@@TouristtoLocal Yo Juliana, which cruise line would you recommend for first time entry level Waiter positions? I’m really tryna get on, I gotta get out of this small town for a while!

[@soulonasolojourney391]

Thank you so much for your precious help and guidance. Absolutely thrilled to have found your video. I’m looking to have a complete change to my career and always loved traveling so decided this is the ultimate way to go, especially because I do love solo traveling and have no issues being away. I’m aware that cruise lines prefer younger people and I might not be their first choice but I’m very young at heart and will not let my 53 years stop me... thanks again and will definitely be persistent! Blessings, love & light to you 🥰✨🤗

This might sounds weird, but watching your videos help me getting through breakup, you have such positive energy

[@rounin112894]

Hi! Thank you for this video. I tried to revise my Resume every now and then, and just keep wondering what went wrong with my applications, because I really believe I am qualified for the position. But then this video made me realize, I am presenting myself in a boring and very systematic way, which I think does not work in Cruise companies. Although this was already 2 years ago, I thought this is still valuable up to this day. Thank you and God bless you! 😊

[@michellebrooks542]

This is one of the best resume application videos I've ever seen. Will definately be using your tips if I ever apply for a cruise ship ! Let's hope they resume soon ❤🚢❤

[@kuromiyuki]

thank you for this video! it will help me a lot! i´m from chile, and i want to work in a cruise ship so bad! i was worried because i don´t have a high level of english. and you said that if i understand the video it´s will be enough, so now my confidence is stronger than 20 minutes ago. so thank you!!

[@TouristtoLocal]

No problem! My husband is actually spanish speaking, and he says that it's also totally ok if you have an accent too. It doesn't have to be perfect :)

[@dga07ful]

Dear Juliana, thank you so much for taking the time to make this video and your other videos about choosing position and packing, its been very helpful to me in building the confidence I needed to apply for the job. xoxo from México :)

[@cynthiachiseko130]

Thank you for the info ❤

[@TouristtoLocal]

Happy to help!

[@tylersokanoff4457]

Hi Juliana, I've watched your videos for a while now and this video was so helpful with helping me apply to cruise lines today! I also bought that guide you recommended and listed in the description, that thing provided so much useful information! I can't wait to hear back and start my first contract! Thank you!

[@zarawilson673]

this video like all of them was incredibly helpful!!! thank you so much i can't wait to apply with the help and tips you have given me!

[@rapture-citizen6949]

Hi Juliana! Thank you so much for making this video. It was so helpful! Honestly though, putting aside the helpful tip of tailoring the resume according to their value statements from their websites, your background alone is impressive along with your skills. Which kinda made me rethink my dream of working on a cruise ship cuz my experience and background is a lot more humble. I waitressed at restaurants and coffee shops for years and that's it. I don't speak any other language and I'm not really a great public speaker. Which brings me to my question, considering those things, is my dream unrealistic?

[@williamsalters156]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!

[@TouristtoLocal]

Of course! Safe travels and best of luck to you!

[@williamsalters156]

I’ll be graduating after the Spring semester with a degree in Travel & Tourism and am considering to try and find employment in the cruise industry. It’s what brought me to your channel! You do a really good job with the videos. Thanks again Tourist To Local.

Hi thanks for the info. Can you advise on where to forward my resume. Currently would like to start a career working on a cruise line as an assistant manager.

[@CesarinPillinGaming]

I noticed that you did not put much information regarding education. Is an education section not usual for cruise companies? Hola desde Mexico! :D

[@TouristtoLocal]

Hola! No, education is not required. I graduated university, but I knew many people onboard who did not. :D

[@Dj-Kel]

I want to apply for an entertainer role also not giving up applying and applying until I get it.

[@user-wc7kg7mq6l]

I love your video. What format is that for the resume?

[@garyprice2771]

Bloody marvellous content. So informative and helpful. Thank you.

Do you think you could make a pdf file of how a resume should look? I do better when I can see what I should be doing.

[@sadamnstackhouse3506]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge but i wanna ask if you are applying for a job on the cruise line as a chef do you need more working experience on your resume because thats what most companies needs

[@jancepalattao3848]

Good Day, can you help me because i dont know where to address my cover letter.

hey... I did the application and send my resume and cover letter to royal Caribbean and applied for carnival cruise on the cast a way website a few days ago. how long does it normally takes to get a reply from these companies about my application? or in general how long does it takes for cruise companies and job agencies to respond to an application? a week, 2 weeks or a month etc. Thanks

[@hannah_micaela]

Hey! I know this was a year ago, but I just want to follow up on this. I'm about to send my resume and cover letter to Royal Caribbean as well. How long did it take you to hear back from Royal Caribbean, if at all? And what position did you apply for? Thanks, you would be a huge help!

Should the resume one page or could it be more than one page? I remember being taught my resume MUST be one page when applying to airlines. Wondering how it should be for cruise lines. Thanks!

Thanks !

[@auchetrandrianarivo6422]

How to find;the adress e mail to send the resume and cover letter

[@rapture-citizen6949]

Hi Juliana! Another question here. I got the impression that you sorta cherry picked only a few of your former jobs to list in your resume, the ones you thought would be more relevant. But wouldn't that leave gaps in the dates? Like, unless those few jobs happened to consecutively be one after the other. I ask cuz often employers don't like to see gaps in employment. Are cruise lines different?

[@kasipaynam.]

Nic information thanks

Hello, how about the aspect of education in a cv?

[@TouristtoLocal]

definitely include it! college isn't necessary, so listing high school education is fine too!

Do you need qualifications what if u plan to work on the ship after school is that possible???
