Types of Jobs in a Cruise Ship

cruise ship job vacancies Philippines

Job opportunities here in the Philippines are scarcely available. Even though you have finished a 4 year course or even a 5 year course it still doesn’t mean that you will be able to land a job good enough to raise a family. Thus, the idea of being away from their families for a huge sum of money is now a priority for many Filipinos.

This year DOLE announced that there are at least 47,000 jobs available for the Filipinos who want to be on board in cruise ships. Job opportunities are getting bigger for Filipinos because many shipping companies are expanding operations and routes.
