Interesting Govt. promoting this opportunity while various tourism businesses on island are under staffed, and hospitality service is our country’s main income earner.
Strategic…
All skilled hospitality professionals who are interested in learning the service in the cruise sector, take this opportunity and develop yourselves internationally.
Covid is is still around and cruise ships have not avoided it. What happened to their regular source of employees, like the Philippines and India? Cruise ship work seems glamorous but it is not. When in port you can only peep to see the countries. No time to go ashore as you have plenty work to do. One guy from St. Lucia told me the work hard and he has to work smart. Didn’t ask him what he meant. Don’t remember how many rooms he said he had to tidy up, but it was plenty.
