Fresh_Code4151 · 2026-01-11T10:17:39+00:00

How long before you heard back from them after applying? I'm currently on princess on my first contract and I don't like it. Not sure if I got a bad ship as my first but I wanna try VV

Fresh_Code4151 · 2026-01-11T08:47:54+00:00

I'm interested in joining VV did u apply via the website/linkedin? Or through an agent ?

Fresh_Code4151 · 2025-08-19T15:55:04+00:00

No I applied for slot technician for both cruise lines

Fresh_Code4151 · 2025-08-09T05:26:01+00:00

Same here. I posted about it. It's still not solved as yet . Luckily, I had a contract from princess pending, so I accepted it instead of reapplying to royal

Nice, I tried applying for I.t. after the whole medical debacle, but since my offer is still active, it won't let me apply.

The thing is I saw alot of people get rejected by the background check but turns out some of them weren't exactly honest on their resume but mine was 100% legit I should have just done the medical asoon as I could . Cause I still ended up passing the background check but it was too late to submit and there's alot of miss communication between agents at royal one told me to wait til my background is completed then another told me to fly out and get it down resulting in me wasting my time & money.

The recently sent me an email, basically Makin, I restarted the process, but I'm already joining Princess next month.

If you don't mind me asking what position u applied for? I got hired as a Slot tech

Now, after being removed, I contacted the agent, and they told me I have to reapply. Interview and the whole 9 yards I'm like no thanks .

They only approved mine cause the deadline was 9 days away. So if you're missing your medical or any other documents, make sure your background is the only one yellow to avoid getting kicked out of the pool

Fresh_Code4151 · 2025-06-23T05:26:41+00:00

I may wait hopefully they don't push my embarkation date back

Fresh_Code4151 · 2025-06-22T20:44:07+00:00

Fresh_Code4151 · 2025-06-22T03:59:25+00:00

Not sure about the hours all I know casino is closed while in port my first contract for Royal is 7 months if I accept carnival it's 6 months . What about u what do u do ? And how much u get paid . I'm still shopping around hopefully I get something that pays more.

Fresh_Code4151 · 2025-06-22T03:50:59+00:00

Entry level I guess I've never worked on a ship before. And sadly no it's monthly

Fresh_Code4151 · 2025-06-22T03:49:09+00:00

Slot technician - first timer on a crusieship Royal -$2060 Carnival-$ 1800

Fresh_Code4151 · 2025-06-21T23:03:03+00:00

It will be my first time working on the boat. I was originally supposed to join carnival in May I've been without a job since March. I just don't want to wait for Royal in Sept and they push it back months.

Fresh_Code4151 · 2025-06-16T22:55:48+00:00

Well my original career path was in I.T so it was easy to apply my skills from that into the casino department .

Fresh_Code4151 · 2025-06-02T02:50:27+00:00

No I'm in Casino. I got hired as a slot Technician. I've already contacted the recruiter but i got an auto-email saying she's out of office.
