  • So with the subscriber count growing I feel it's time to introduce the shrimp who has dreams of becoming a shark!
    This is the first of videos which I share my personal feelings and experience which I'll do every so often when I see the audience is growing..maybe uniting newbies together haha!
    This time it's an introduction of what an engine cadet is before and upon joining a vessel.
    Thank you for watching a part of my life and I hope to share a part of your experience seafarer...
    The awesome drone video of my academy was done by this cool guy!

      Yash Choudhary Thank you very much Yash for your kind words, I'll keep trying my best to share things in a simple manner.
      To answer your question grades will only matter if your university or academy will contact a company for an interview.
      If you manage to get an interview with a company representative I'm sure your marks won't matter.. What they will see is, in my opinion, your English comprehension and communication, your physical fitness, and how you answer their personal interview questions about the job..
      At home I have saved all the questions I was asked in various interviews.. When I get back I'll try and share them with everyone.

      Hello Monika, first of all amazing that you are looking after your boyfriend and are worried about him, all seafarers should have someone like that at home, and second don't let him give up! I as a cadet studied a lot from manuals and from mental simulations. After I demonstrated knowledge by speaking up and even these videos I made as a cadet (it has been 3 years and I'm now 3rd engineer Sr.). And DON'T WORRY even as an officer 1st contract you will not know everything and learning will never stop. Learn to work hard and enjoy learning the engine room as a cadet.
      Success and God bless you both

      There is a saying that it's easier to find jobs when working on bigger vessels with high power. However in lower ranks nowadays it's difficult everywhere.. In my opinion graduate first then work hard and demonstrate your skill.

    Amigo) My small advice...)) You made a tooooo long "speaking" video for 18 minutes... It's very hard to watch it. This takes too much time. Unfortunately UA-cam have it's own "unwritten" rules - if any of your subscribers or random viewers will find the link for your video and check it out that this is whole 18 minutes - only small % would click on your video, because it's too long. As for me even 9 minutes videos are too long (if they are in "speaking" format). 9 minutes are the best for any action or entertainment format. Try to make "speaking" videos no more than 5-6 minutes or divide it in several parts....))

      Seaman’s Blog You're correct my friend, with other videos I'll try to keep it short, sweet, simple and clear.
      However these personal videos are an exception, whoever is interested will watch them and maybe feel identified. That small % who will watch it all are those whom I'm sure will find this channel is a perfect fit.
