Attractive prospects and personalized career planning

The job families at AIDA Cruises are called “Marine” and “Guests” on board and “Business” on land. There are exciting fields for skilled workers and managers to discover within all of these areas, including navigation and technology, catering and hotel services, wellness and exercise, as well as tourism and business administration.
We want to recruit the best talent for all of our job families, which is why we organize our Applicant Days throughout Germany and Austria and are present at national and international career fairs.

In 2014 we also initiated an Open House for the first time at the AIDA Customer Center. Here interested parties were able to get information about job profiles for Customer Center employees and travel consultants.
About 140 participants used the opportunity to familiarize themselves with AIDA through workshops, presentations and personal talks with our employees. More details about our job families, open positions, and job profiles can also be found on our online career portal.

In order to get the attention of potential applicants, we have an extensive career site and are present on social media. We also initiate a number of different career events and work closely with various universities. To make sure that prospective applicants can get comprehensive, specific information about career opportunities at AIDA from anywhere, we gave our career portal a face lift and expanded the offer on mobile end devices as well as our social media presence on Facebook, XING, and LinkedIn in 2014. In 2014 the number of followers on our “AIDA Jobs” Facebook page rose to more than 15,000.

In addition to the specific job profile, the international atmosphere and many career opportunities at AIDA play an important role in making us an attractive employer. We also offer exciting opportunities to artists. They can showcase their talent at our global castings calls [Link to Casting Video]. Our Career Days also support us in adding new, qualified members to our ever-growing AIDA family.

AIDA is a globally operating company, which is why we are also committed to recruiting and training our young talent around the world: We work with selected training centers in the Philippines, India, Vietnam and Indonesia. In 2014 alone we trained a total of 1,785 employees in 135 training programs there, some of which lasted several weeks.

The first AIDA recruiting days for the hotel staff took place in Port Louis, Mauritius, in 2014. About 80 qualified candidates were selected and then prepared for employment on board. The first AIDA Recruiting Days for hotel staff in Vietnam were just as successful and we were able to hire 100 new employees. Additional recruiting activities with the training centers in the above-mentioned markets as well as Mauritius are planned in 2015. AIDA Cruises is also increasing its recruiting initiatives in Europe.
