Creator's Key Takeaways

I was thrilled when they reached out, but instead of an offer to work for Royal, they offered a position within Celebrity Cruises.

This step took forever, countless days, weeks, months. This was no joke.

It's a lot of steps. I'm not going to lie, but it's so worth it to work on a cruise ship and see the world.

My biggest advice is to stay organized and to stay patient and triple check your documents.
