At Martide, we know that as a shipowner or ship manager working in a small to medium sized shipping company, your days are hectic: maritime recruitment, crew management...the list goes on. That’s why we’ve made it far easier for you to stay in touch with candidates, seafarers and manning agents.
Whether you’re thinking of embarking (pun intended!) upon careers at sea and are looking for entry level cargo ship jobs or you’re a seasoned professional looking for a change of job or company, Martide has the jobs at sea you’re looking for.
If you think about it from a traditional point of view, it might seem a little strange needing a seafarer who lists coding, programming or other techie skills on his or her maritime resume. But times are changing and like many sectors, the maritime industry is now starting to embrace digitization.
We know when you’re working in seafarer jobs you’re busy around the clock but for those moments when you do get some personal time in between watches or shifts, even though you’re miles away from land, there are still plenty of things you can do to chill out and keep yourself entertained.
You’re hiring for your open seafarer jobs and your crewing system and maritime recruitment process are working well. Now you’re at the interview stage. Some of your interviewees are great all the way through the interview...but others, well others, might set alarm bells ringing halfway through.
Lying on a resume is never a good idea, but lying on a seafarer resume is a real no-no for anyone who takes their maritime career seriously. The trouble with lying - or just exaggerating - when job seeking is that if (and when) you get found out, it can have terrible consequences on your future.
When even some of the biggest and best known companies in the world have fallen victim to cyber attacks from hackers, it pretty much means that none of us are safe - and that's both on a business and a personal level. If you're working in jobs at sea, here's how to stay safe online.
In maritime recruitment you’re not only hiring people for your shore based maritime jobs but also seafarers on contracts. It’s not surprising it can feel like your HR department is chasing its own tail half the time! We take a look at how you can simplify your maritime recruitment efforts.
