Interviewed Aug 2011 in Doral, FL (took a day)
After submitting my resume and applying through the carnival website, I received an e-mail asking for my availability for a 30 minute phone screen. The phone screen had to be put off for one day as the recruiting manager had a meeting. The next day, we spoke over the phone. The position required more technical skills than I had, so the phone screen was cut short as the recruiting manager proceeded to interview more capable potential employees.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Doral, FL (took 2 days)
The recruiter was friendly, but had me waiting by the phone for the interview several times. She rescheduled the call twice while I was sitting by the phone waiting for the call, and it ended up being a whole day later than scheduled. The interview was short and simple. Basic Questions.

Interviewed Feb 2009 in Miramar, FL (took 1 week)
Submitted my resume through a friend who was working there and received a phone call to schedule an interview about a week later. When I came in the interview lasted about 45 minutes, where I was asked to talk about myself, and how I would handle certain situations like how I would make a suggestion to someone unsure of what decision to make.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Miami, FL (took 2 weeks)
I applied to this position through my school's career website. Then I was contacted to setup a phone interview.
I was asked a few basic questions:
why are you interested in this company? what are some of your weaknesses? can you explain a couple things on your resume?
Then I was asked a few scenario questions:
how would you go about raising profits from soda sales on a ship? if we were looking to renew a contract with coke what research would you take into account?
I thought the interviewer was friendly and was genuinely interested in what I had to say. I built a rapport with him through our interview and we had a little conversation about some topics. I got to ask him questions about some company procedures as well and the interviewer elaborated on his answers with stories, which was nice.
The next step in the process was an onsite interview. However, I was not contacted after my phone interview about the next step.

Interviewed Aug 2009 in Miami, FL (took 4+ weeks)
Referred by a friend and got phone number to set up an audition. Called the musical entertainment manager's secretary to schedule the audition one week out. Then was sent audition material through email. Hiring manager called and auditioned me on the music that was sent and a couple of prepared pieces. He said i passed the audition and asked when I could start. After a full description of the job, he said I would need to follow up with all the medical documentation before I could be hired. Medical included: full physical exam, MMR vaccination records, and any other medical conditions needed to evaluate my health. After all the medical stuff had been sent in, I was called and given a start date. Flight info is mailed and paid for by the company.
