Employees who work on cruise ships share very tight crew assigned living quarters. Think of your college dorm room, perhaps smaller, but on the water. These little bunks will include a couple of single beds, a desk or table, and a small bathroom for the most part. The interviewer would like to know that you can handle this type of living situation, with total strangers, for weeks at a time. Be honest in your response, and, if you have had exposure to a similar living arrangement, you can certainly bring this up.

"Cabin crew living arrangements sound a great deal like the arrangements I had in university! I have talked to a couple of people who have worked on cruise ships before, and they all say that it's tough for the first couple of weeks, but then you get used to it. I know that depending on the level I am on, it could be loud from the engine hum or the water. I trust that Viking River Cruises knows how to best pair employees when it comes to roommate situations."

"I have had roommates in the past, but perhaps not in such proximity. So long as we remain respectful of each others' space, I see no problem living cozy for a few weeks. I will think of it as the tiny house trend!"
