Owo wam je JOB DESCRIPTION :-)
Shipboard A/V Media Staff
IMPORTANT TO KNOW FIRST
This position is a live onboard position. It is very important that applicants understand that if hired, our staff lives and works onboard a Carnival Cruise ship for 8 months. (After the 8 months, there is approximately 2 months off, non-paid, extensions and shorter time between contracts is up to the Staff and Management). There are no weekends off as in some typical land-based positions. Correspondence with family and friends is via e-mail, postal mail and limited telephone calls with a prepaid phone card (US Cell Phones can be used in certain Caribbean ports). Staff members share a cabin with one other crew member, usually another A/V Staff, however the time spent in the cabin is little due to the fact that most staff would rather be out and about the ship during time off from work. The A/V Manager makes a work schedule for the team, and everyone gets their free time as required by maritime law. During free time on board, staff members are required to adhere to a dress & behavior code. Common sense can easily be a guide for these situations.
In order to be hired, the applicant must fill out the following: (Provided by Carnival Cruise Lines after completion of interview)
Employment Application
Release for criminal background check
Forms for physical examination (required) [Expenses range from $350.00 and up depending on individual insurance situations and/or geographical location, applicant will be responsible for this expense which is not reimbursed]
Carnival will provide staff with 5 uniform shirts, shorts and hat as required by uniform code. The shirts are similar to Polo-style collared shirts.
New Hires are responsible for the following:
Khaki pants/ black shoes/ personal items.
Formal Tux or Suit for initial use. Carnival will provide one for work, but it takes a few weeks to order. Once a tux is issued, personal formal wear is required for use during time off in public places onboard the vessel during formal night.
First flight to the company HQ in Miami is the responsibility of the newly hired.
JOB RESPONSIBILITIES
A/V Media Staff are responsible for the production of a weekly video product entitled, "Fun Ship DVD", which is sold to the guests every cruise. In addition to the shooting and editing of the content for this piece, A/V Staff Members are responsible for the maintenance of all A/V equipment onboard the vessel. This includes plasma screens, CCTV and robotic video cameras, VCRS & DVD players, background music systems, video projectors & production show video segments, just to name a few. There is a lot of responsibility for each member of the onboard team, which creates a close knit team environment. Shooting onboard and during shore excursions is the perfect way for a recent college graduate to hone his or her shooting skills as well as the opportunity to learn new and advanced systems like the Leitch Velocity NLE and AMX Intelligent Control.
BENEFITS & COMPENSATION
Every Carnival Shipboard employee has full medical coverage while on contract. There is a Doctor and medical team onboard with office hours available to guests and crew. If a medical emergency or special need arises while onboard, staff members will be transported to the nearest hospital for medical care, free of charge. If medication is prescribed during a contract, there is no charge. (Medical coverage only provided during contract, no coverage between contracts).
Many staff members enjoy the travel, for obvious reasons. From 3-12 day cruises around the fleet, A/V Staff may find themselves shooting video in some of the most exotic places around the world. With this travel comes the opportunity to meet and befriend people from over 80 different nations.
Due to the fact that room and board are free, this position allows for A/V Staff to save a lot of money during a contract. Pay is in cash onboard & there is a safe deposit box available onboard, plus to opportunity to visit a bank of choice in the various ports of call.
This position has a 90 day review period. During those 90 days, Staff members are paid $ 1,500.00 per month. After the review period is over and new staff is considered to be at full status, the pay is increased to $ 1,800.00 per month. US Citizens will not be exempt from Federal Income tax.
After 2 contracts, A/V Staff can be trained to become A/V Manager. Advancement through the ranks in this industry is must faster than on land.
Upon completion of the contract, air travel back home is paid by the company. If additional contracts are desired, Carnival will assume air travel expenses back to a different ship and again back home at the end of each subsequent contract. Travel for family emergencies, termination or resignation is the sole responsibility of the individual.
