0 Comments | Posted by Angela in Sir George Seymour College Blog
50 students had the opportunity to travel on a day excursion on the Interislander on 12 & 13 August 2010 as part of an employment opportunity. Students got a behind the scene look at what its like to work as a cabin attendant on board the ship. The famil trip to Picton return involved, having a complimentary breakfast in the ships lounge first thing in the morning, visiting the galley area to speak to the head chef, and most importantly onto the bridge to check out the navigation area.
Students will then have the opportunity to apply for cabin attendant roles for intakes in Oct and Nov 2010. These positions will be a 6 month contract over the busy xmas, summer season. This gives the students the chance to gain experience in customer service, and the opportunity to then go onto roles with Airlines and cruise liners.
