EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES
MSC Cruises is an equal-opportunity employer. With employees representing 75 nationalities and offices all over the world, MSC Cruises promotes a multicultural environment, proudly aware that the diversity of our teams is a key element in the Company’s success.
Fighting all forms of discrimination, and promoting equal opportunities and respect for difference is at the heart of MSC Cruises’ policies. We aim to recruit and develop the best talent regardless of race, gender, religion, national origin, age or disability. We treat everyone with respect and dignity and expect all our employees to behave in the same way towards colleagues and customers.
PHISHING / SCAM ALERT
There has been an increase in deceitful emails and flyers, sent by fraudsters pretending to be one of our recruitment partners, to prospective MSC Cruises candidates. Their aim is to collect personal information and money.
You should be wary of any recruitment agency or job posting that asks for upfront money online on the promise that you will be contacted with MSC Cruises. They are frauds.
We are working very closely with our IT security teams to ensure those email addresses are shut down to prevent more victims. However, if you believe you have been contacted by one of these fraudsters and received a “too good to be true” opportunity from what appears to be MSC Cruises, please notify us “here”.
