Answer 2

Hi,

I have just recently finished my tour at sea. Never forget it.

I worked on the oldest sailing liner and the largest liner at sea. No guesses who?

My position held was as an officer and fell under the engineering dept so methods of employment and contracts were very different to the other sectors ie. hotel, security, deck.

I see you have looked at 2 possible areas.

If I was to go back again, I would avoid some of the cruise lines under Carnivals wing. In my opinion the more northern owned lines are favourable.

Don't fall for any of these sites that want you to do sign ups and send money etc. It is all a waste of time and invariably slaes hype where your data sits forever in huge databases and never get looked at.

Do some thourough search on the net for direct contact to the personel dept of each one and various agencies out of Australia, UK, Germany, South Africa etc hold conexions to these industries.

Security might be harder to get into these days, but as far as therapy, beauty etc. try Steiner, Crystal, Canyon Ranch. They supply most of the cruise line industry.

Hope this helps
