Dinner Cruises , small luxury cruise ships, sightseeing tours, and tour boats attract
people from other parts of the industry. It can be a nice because sighting tours,
dinner cruises, sunset cruises and small luxury cruise ships can offer employment
opportunities close to home. See
Circle Line Downtown for a few new leads.
Another company to check out is Wendella Sightseeing Tours , where there are new
leads. Another operator that sometimes posts openings is
Yacht Starship. If there's
a downside to the dinner cruise and sightseeing tour sectors have taken hits
themselves in terms of last years fuel prices coupled with a dismal economy. Those
special bookings like dinner cruise weddings, bridal showers, corporate parties,
entertainment cruises have become less frequent simply because many
businesses have cut back their recreational budgets for such corporate outings.
We know some of these jobs aren't suited for all our readers because a 1600 ton
licensed mate with a towing endorsement isn't going to be interested in working as
a job as a bartender, waiter, banquet server at corporate events.
The Circle Line Sightseeing Boats are virtually an institution for tourists to see the sights of
New York like the Statue of Liberty, Hudson River, Manhattan Skyline and more. While we're
afraid to say we don't know of job leads for the classic Circle Line fleet, there is Circle Line
Downtown (featured below) with a few leads.
Whether you consider the Seabourn Spirit, pictured above, to be a very large yacht
or a small cruise ship, such vessels fill a special niche of the cruise industry,
catering to passengers who want a different experience than a cruise with 4,000
people on a 80,000 ton giant. Seabourn is a small luxury cruise line... they call their
ships yachts because they're not on the scale of larger cruise lines like Carnival,
Royal Caribbean Cruise Line or Norwegian Cruise Line.
Do you know What Gets Us Mad?
When an employer requests a ton of
personal information from a
prospective applicant that isn't even
necessary or related to the job, and
then doesn't get back to them. Just
because the economy is bad, it
doesn't mean job applicants don't
deserve to be treated with dignity.

Do you know
What Makes Us
Happy
?
It makes us happy when we see an
employer treat a prospective job
applicant with respect. We don't
mean VIP treatment. We know that
employers can't respond to every
applicant in this dismal economy. We
know they're being flooded with
resumes, some from people who
apply for jobs for which they aren't
qualified. But maybe if things like
very personal and sensitive
information was left out of the hiring
process until things got serious
enough to consider extending an
offer. There's are some things that
don't need to be asked if a person is
merely tossing their resume into the
hat. There's no reason to collect
intrusive information up front just for
the sake of collecting it.
