Explora Journeys
Onboard Careers

To apply for onboard jobs at Explora Journeys, applicants must use our careers portal. After selecting suitable positions of interest, they will be prompted to upload their resume and required documents. Once submitted, their application will enter the review process conducted by our Talent Acquisition team. Exceptions apply to recruitment events or when recruitment partners or manning agencies reach out to candidates directly.

Once the job posting closes, candidates should expect a review period ranging from a few weeks to a month. During this time, our Talent Acquisition team will assess applications and reach out to selected candidates.

Neither Explora Journeys nor our recruitment partners will ever charge any fees related to the recruitment process. If candidates are asked to pay for any aspect of recruitment, they should avoid engaging, as it is likely a scam.

To ensure the safety and security of all applicants, we recommend that you only apply for positions listed on our careers website (https://www.careers.msccruises.com/) or through reputable job search platforms.
Moreover, Explora Journeys never asks for money in advance, if anything you might need to pay for a visa, medical examinations, or certifications, but not Explora Journeys or an agent.

There is no fixed timeline for candidates to join our ships, as it depends on the completion of their document processing and the availability within our candidate pool for the respective positions.
