Cruise ships can hold thousands of passengers, with the worlds' largest holding over 6,000 people at a time. With that many people under one roof, the interviewer needs to know that you can handle the capacity of people without becoming overwhelmed or moody. Talk to the interviewer about a time when you have been exposed to large crowds. Assure the interviewer that you can handle the pressure and challenges that come along with this workplace environment.

"I have worked many Black Friday retail rushes and popular concerts to know that I am okay in a large crowd of people. Although I do appreciate my personal space and alone time now and then, I do find it energizing to be around large amounts of people."

"Large crowds of people are no problem for me. I have worked on cruise ships with capacity from 3,000-5,000 people with no issues. I am a true extrovert, so I do find it energizing to be around many people at one time."
