Located in Beverly Hills, California, Pan American Cruise Corporation is a recruitment company specializing in cruise line employment. Pan American Cruise Corporation helps individuals, 18 and over, find employment aboard traditional and luxury cruise ships that sail in the Caribbean, the Atlantic, the Pacific, and the Mediterranean. They can even assist those interested in working abroad. The company asserts that it is quite easy for a cruise ship employee to earn anywhere from $1,500 up to $4,000 or more per month. And the best thing about these cruise ship salaries it that they are tax-free and contracts last anywhere from six months to a year or more.
While working on a cruise ship may sound exciting, it is important to keep in mind, however, that cruise ship employees do not work a regular 9-5 schedule. The schedule is more like 12-14 hours a day, seven days a week.

Once the materials are received, Pan American Cruise Corporation will match your skills with a position and salary range. This process is usually completed within 60 days.
Once the process is complete Pan American will send an agreement proposal, and any necessary instructions for placing you in a cruise ship job. You will also be assigned a file number. Once you have agreed with the terms, you will return the signed agreement and any fees associated with placing you in a cruise ship position. Pan American Cruise Corporation will then find a suitable position for you and they will also help you obtain any necessary documentation required for travel such as visas, medical records and flight tickets.
