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."

I have previously worked on cruise ships with thousands of guests on board so I am used to large crowds and gatherings of people. It’s important to stay calm, stay focussed on the task at hand, and make sure you have control of the situation. I am extremely outgoing so I find making conversations with groups of people interesting and thrilling.

Awesome! The interviewer will appreciate that you have this type of experience. In addition, staying calm, focused, and in control are excellent ways to act in a large crowd. It's also good that you're outgoing by nature. Can you include an example of a time when you were in a large crowd and talk about how you successfully navigated this situation? Nice job!
