Carnival Cadet Pay

[squidge1992]

Morning all. Just wondering what they pay is for carnival cadets? (I know its more about the lifestyle etc; but knowing the salary/expected salary would be advantageous).

Cheers.

[bahco]

I think it is around 800 a month

[Taze]

It could be as little as nothing if they decide not to take you on afterwards

[McBoo]

As a cadet you have a training allowance which is enough to live off. Once you're qualified you may be offered a job with carnival or you may have to find an officers job elsewhere. As a newly qualified officer the salary would be around 25000.

[McBoo]

With a company like carnival, there is more chance of a job once qualified than with one of the agencies. If you get good reports as a cadet then they would probably keep you on.

[bahco]

Yeah, they keep you on for a few trips once you are qualified

I'm pretty sure you sign a 2 year contract with carnival saying you will work for them when you qualify, obviously they can sack you like but it shows intention that they expect to keep cadets on..

i think the salary is 28k, unless my mate it talking shi-ayte.

[bahco]

Yeah, they keep you for 2 years and the salary for a 3rd officer/ 2 engineer is around 26k-31k.

Carnival Cadet Pay

Salary at present is ?28k but this will change by the time you qualify. Carnival are introducing a competency based pay framework which will see those new to position earning a few thousand less than this, with the opportunity to earn a few thousand more as you progress.

You are expected to stay for two years as long as you are offered a job. I haven't heard of any Carnival cadets who have successfully completed their cadetships not being offered a job.

A bit OT but I can't believe the salary is the same as it was over 10 years ago!

[EH75]

Yeah and they wonder why they have problems with officer retention....

My friend gets ?899 as a Eng cadet with Carnival. However he has to pay for his accommodation, although he lives near by the college.

Do you get played as a cadet when a sea and in college or just at sea? If yes how much? Just for interest.

Both. I don't know how much Carnival pay. But to give you an idea, Clyde pay ?175 a week at college and ?120 during your sea phase.

I think you mean ?175 per week eh?
