QUESTION 28 OF 30

Have you ever worked in a cross-functional environment?

Cruise ships are heavily cross-functional since all departments and personnel work closely together to create a pleasant and cohesive guest experience. If you have worked for a cruise line in the past, you may have been asked to collaborate between the kitchen and the child care facility. Maybe you have floated service between the pool and the casino. Your ability to work with cross-functional teams will be a significant asset to V.Ships Leisure.

"I have worked in many cross-functional environments. Currently, I lead the dining service team and collaborate with the kitchen management and bartending staff very regularly. We all work well together to ensure an amazing dining experience for our guests."

"The cruise line which I currently work for is highly collaborative. We are a 'complete guest experience' organization, so we have meetings together with our casino, watersports, entertainment and excursions, dining staff, and also our cabin crew on a daily basis. Goals are clear, and we all understand how each department works to complement the other."
