Creator's Key Takeaways

when we apply for a job and we have an interview and it doesn't go so well i mean firstly it's rubbish it's really rubbish

the second thing is where you are from as i've mentioned in previous videos cruise ship crew members can be made up of multiple nationalities

the third reason is where the ship is going so if the cruise line are hiring crew members for a particular ship and that ship is due to sail around japan in two months they're gonna hire mostly japanese people

Creator's Tips & Advice

Keep applying for cruise ship jobs even if you don't get the first one.
Understand that gender, nationality, and ship destination can affect hiring decisions.
Persistence shows how much you want the job and can lead to eventual success.
