well my position there will be in the cold storage warehouse handling all the incoming supplies.im assuming in the bottom of the ship

@skipholmes60 ok well I'm not sure how many roommates you'll have. That's one department I know very little about. Sorry I'm not much more help. I'd go ahead and assume you'll have 2 other roommates just to be safe. Most people on the ship do.

See you soon!

well being the fact ill be joining this ship in the next two months it was great to see just what kind of living situations for the 5 month tour of duty.i can only hope to get bunked with just one other person and plan not bringing to much in the way of clothes

[maghungie]

@skipholmes60 Well if you tell me what your job is I can tell you how many cabin mates you'll have. Also you don't really need much in the way of clothes because you're wearing your uniform so much. I can usually get by with one 95 cubic liter duffle bag. It's definitely smart to have collapsable luggage.

Good luck! I suppose I'll see you when you get here! Feel free to say hi!

hey, great post! I start watching your vlog as I'll probably work on NCL as well. Now I got the offer for a position as Guest Service Associate and they wanna interview me via Skype (I'm not from the US). My question is, does it mean positive for the position? Or they'd still consider the decision after the Skype Interview. You said 75% crew NCL are americans, how bout 25%others? And how long the training take before you finally get on board? Thank you any infos are highly appreciated! :)

@diaomonmon First off, congrats on getting the interview! Now I'm not sure if you're interviewing with NCL or specifically for Pride of America. They do separate hiring for my ship as far as I know, and the 75% American rule only applies to PofAmerica. I also don't know much about their hiring process but in my experience just getting an interview is a huge step in the right direction. If you ARE interviewing for PoA, then the training is on-board and only takes a week. Good luck!

Hey great video! So I just had a question, I just got through all my paperwork process wit PoA and have my MMC and everything, and now I'm being told I've been placed on "active hold" until my position becomes available for training. Did you have to wait very long between getting hired and leaving for training? Any sort of estimate would be helpful as right now I don't know if I'll be waiting for 2 weeks or 2 months and thats really kind of fustrating lol. Thanks!

How hard is it to get hired? Do they hire frequently?

[turkdubstep]

After working for the Evil Mouse of Disney world this is going to be a cake walk. Just got hired see you if a few maybe!

@skipholmes60 : Forget about it. As a cold warehouse woker you will be sharing a room with 2 roomates. Only manager and officers can have a one bedrom. OPack lightly, you will need any extra space. And, by the way, avoid the job, is pretty nasty there.

I am so glad that I don't work there anymore!!

[diaomonmon]

do you have internet access as a crew on board?
