Celebrity Launches Advocate Program

[C 2 C]

I did not see anyone's email address on the google doc I received.

 

Take a look at your email and look under cc.

My guess is that ere will be a large turnover of "Advocates" once they understand that they are now almost minimum wage workers and they find that it is real work. Personally, don't need the money or problems. When I retired, I retired. Do lots of things for free and don't want to complicate my life by feeling obligated. I understand that others may feel quite differently and they should go for it if it works for them.

Yep. see it now Arno. Thanks for the heads up!

I was kind of surprised when I received this too. :confused:

 

Not sure why they didn't send this out as a bcc.

So if everyone got their interview invitations at the same time and I didn't get one, I guess I'm off the hook. Oh, well, it's nice to know that for sure already. :p

[Ma Bell]

Got an invitation but don't think I could make the commitment. I have a crazy life already!

I'm passing on this also.

 

Have fun to those that want to partake!

I will listen to how it goes. If they offer (reasonable) OBC, I'm up for it. If they offer $10 per hour, have fun without me!

The sign up sheet shows everyone who is making an appointment and includes the email of every entrant.

 

I now have the emails of 85 entrants and they will have mine as well.:eek:

 

Me too, I thought that was poor, as they say on Dragons Den "I'm out!"

 

Nice thought but in practice, this is not looking such a good prospect.

looks like a marketing scam to me [emoji32]

I also received an invitation for an interview. The sign-up process for an interview is very unprofessionally done so I am not going to pursue this any further.

[ladylemondrop]

I will just continue to be an advocate on here and on my blog, free of charge! [emoji16]

Any feedback from folks who did the interview? I have nothing here.

[LuAnn]

and did not respond...not doing this...no way..no now!!! LuAnn

That's OK. Only "the Chosen" may partake.

[Balloon Man]

"Advocate" - one that supports or promotes the interests of another. Merriam Webster dictionary. So no suggestion of impartiality by those taking part.

 

"Advocaat" - traditional Dutch alcoholic beverage. Merriam Webster dictionary. Sho no shujestion of imparsh hic ality by those taking ... whatever.

[FateHappens]

Why have so many potential advocates gone quiet??

 

How was the interview?

 

Anyone get hired?

 

Maybe they were sworn to secrecy. :eek:

[maggie.1008]

Yes I would like to know who was picked. Maybe they won`t have time for Cruise Critic anymore.

[LuAnn]

A lot of us "backed-out"...after finding out more details...that's what I did anyway...wasn't "chosen"...because I didn't move forward!!! :cool: LuAnn

For me, quiet because I haven't heard anything yet. They said I would hear in 7-10 days. The sign up doc I received showed interviews for Sunday/Monday/Tuesday (8/9-8/11) so, I didn't expect to hear anything before today (7 days from last interview). The interview was longer than I expected -40 minutes and was mostly Celebriity brand questions and a mock chat with a potential cruiser. No personal questions and no talk of expectations or compensation.

 

We'll see. I have no idea what they are looking for and I know so little about it, I'm not sure I even want to pursue it if I hear back.

Interviews were done last week.

 

Next steps were emailed out last night to those who will continue in the process.

Read this thread with great interest...

 

I'm on the Chat team for Norwegian and have been since it was started.

 

We are a close knit team of "advocates" who love our job..

 

I've personally chatted with over 13,000 people since I started.

 

There is a lot of misinformation in this thread about what the program is about... take it from someone who's been part of the Norwegian team since day one, it's a great program and anyone that gets picked is lucky if the program is anything like the one with Norwegian.

 

Good luck to you guys!!

Hey there Rose.. I'd be very interested in learning a bit more about your experience with the platform and its use cases. If you wouldn't mind trading a few email with whatever you can share, please use the link in my signature to email me. Thank you!

So Curt, did you make it ?
