Three reasons why now is a good time to get into the yachting industry

1. The industry is booming

The yachting industry currently has 1024 yachts either on order or in production, which should leave our future yacht crew feeling calm and at ease. The industry didn’t really come to a halt when the pandemic struck, it just slowed down slightly. Two years later and we are in full swing again, only question now is 'will there be enough marina’s to accommodate all the new yachts?’

2. It’s never been easier to build a quality CV

A CV is a future superyacht crew member’s marketing platform. It is their first introduction to their potential employers. Due to the volume of CVs we get when we post vacant positions, we take an average of 10 seconds to make a decision on placing the CV in the ‘reject’ or ‘review’ pile. For this reason, it is vital that the most important information is captured on the first page in a particular sequence. That is why we offer services such a Professional Yacht CVs, where we build you a CV that a potential employer wants to see, by highlighting skills and characteristics you may not think are important & structuring it with an optimal lay-out.

3. There are various easy (and fun) ways of improving your credentials

Potential employers look at valid compulsory certifications, value-added courses, vaccinations, valid visas and your current location. With a focus on what roles you were employed in and how much responsibility you held in those roles. Especially for interior crew, having hospitality as a background is beneficial.
