Our Process
Application Screening & Qualification Verification
License and Certification Review: We start by verifying that all licenses and certifications meet international standards, including STCW, USCG, MCA, and other relevant maritime qualifications.
Background Check: We conduct a comprehensive background check, confirming a clear record in professional, criminal, and financial areas.
Documented Sea Time and References: We review logged sea time and cross-check references from previous captains, vessel owners, and employers to ensure a history of reliability and integrity.
Skill Assessment and Competency Evaluation
Ship Simulator Test:
Candidates undergo our ship simulator test, where they must achieve an 85% pass rate or higher in key areas such as navigation, docking, engineering basics, safety protocols, and vessel handling.
Situational and Emergency Preparedness: Deck officers are evaluated on their ability to respond to simulated emergency scenarios, demonstrating proficiency in safety protocols, crisis management, and firefighting measures.
Interview Process with Real-World Scenario Testing
Behavioral Interview: Our senior maritime professionals conduct in-depth interviews to assess the officer's problem-solving abilities, adaptability, and leadership qualities.
Scenario-Based Questions: Candidates are presented with real-world scenarios to test their decision-making abilities, communication skills, and crew management effectiveness.
Safety and Security Protocol Evaluation: Officers are evaluated on their understanding of advanced safety measures, security procedures, and passenger interaction protocols to ensure smooth and secure operations at all times.
