Do International Cruise Job Seekers Have the Same Opportunities as Americans?
It is easy to let something put you off applying for cruise ship jobs. Perhaps you don’t think you have enough experience, or you don’t know whether now is the right time. However, one thing that should definitely not put you off is your nationality. Some people think that if they are not American this will hurt their employment prospects, but this could not be further from the truth. Not being a US citizen is a surprisingly popular concern for a lot of people hoping to land a position on a cruise ship, but the truth is that they don’t need to worry. If you asked any crew member they would quickly tell you that this is simply not an issue. But still some people get it into their heads that when it comes to finding cruise ship jobs, not being American puts them at a disadvantage. There is a logic as to why people think this: the world’s largest market for cruising is the USA.
