Which Cruise Lines employ 19 year olds?
I want to work on a cruise ship next year for a few months but every one I find requires you to be 21. I'm 19. Do you know of any cruise lines that employ under 21's?
Preferred jobs:
Photographer
Bellboy/concierge
Waiter
Bartender

Now, there is a huge difference between your preferred jobs:
Bellboy and Concierge are light years away from each other.
So is Waiter, Bartender and Photographer.
What do you mean by a few months. Contracts are somewhere between 6 and 8 months for the positions you are listing.
Plus you need the relevant job experience, before applying.
Bartenders are hired as such, if you have previous onboard experience - you would start as Barwaiter first - even if you have worked as Bartender on land before.
You would also not start as a Waiter, but as a busboy.
Cruise lines which employ under 21, would be Disney Cruise lines and European Cruise lines.
Applying for a European one, you need to be at least bilingual in most cases.
Keep looking...they're should be many more cruise lines that take on people on over 18yrs old...As long as you have the right qualifications you'll get the job...
