Questions specific to this position
Is this the easiest way in?
It is one of the roles with the lowest document and experience threshold, yes. But let us say plainly that no job on a ship is easy — the pace and the discipline are the same in every position.
Can I move to another position from here?
Moves happen but are not automatic; they require the documents of the new position. We can plan which certificates you need together.
