I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Carnival Corporation (Miramar, FL) in Aug 2014
Interview
Attended an open house. They broke us into groups of 10 and gave us 1 minute to introduce ourselves and say why we'd be a good fit for the job. I was the only one out of my group who was selected for a follow-up interview.
Came a few days later for the follow-up. It took around 3 hours. They had you fill out some paper work, then explained the incentive pay plan. Then they had you side-jack with an established PVP for about a half hour and after that the group interview began. My group only had like 5 applicants.
Received a phone call a few days later informing me that I had received the job.

Question 1
If we gave you a blank check and told you to fill in your salary for your first year, how much would you say your worth?
It was fine. I believe that the manager was intentionally being difficult. I had a better offer from another company and want to see if this would be worth my time. I was told that I was interviewing with the manager only and it was two people. It was a fast process.

Interview
There is a two part process to interviewing for this position. You will give your elevator pitch in groups of 5 to two hiring managers then, if called back, there will be a second group interview in groups of 4. During the actual interview each candidate was placed with a representative currently in the position in order to shadow and get a general idea of the position. After spending about an hour with the representative, you are taken back to another room for about another hour and a half in order to answer questions. Each person is given a turn to answer each question and at the end they let you know that you will be contacted with a decision.
