Re: I have applied!

Your guess is as good as anybody's. I just try to sit and wait patiently even when someone starts their sentences with "we are in the process of..." and end them with "in due course."

Re: I have applied!

may be. clyde says they are reviewing all their applicants becuase so many have applied

Does that mean all applicants who have recently applied, or, all applicants who had applied last year also? I applied in Mid-October?

According to the woman at CMT that I spoke to the other day...CMT are going to send letters out to the applicants on their books and request that we write back to them if we still want to be considered. She says it is an attempt to "whittle down the numbers".

Not what I wanted to hear, but I suppose thats the way it goes . Should we be finding out this week?

Re: I have applied!

From what I gather from current SeaCor cadets and my emails with SeaCor it is basically two weeks aboard one of the Boston Putford fleet. During which I will observe the different roles carried out aboard and also see what life as a cadet aboard is like.

I am very much looking forward to it.

Re: I have applied!

So it is, mind you not by much in terms of latitude, only a few miles from where I'm at

So what does the observation trip entail?

Re: I have applied!

I'm getting the train down to Rochester from the Westcountry. Gonna be a long old haul

That's more of an 'up' than a 'down', no?

Re: I have applied!

+1 on the late mind! Long day...

D-Triv:
I will get my medical when I am away in June - plenty time to get fit - on my observation trip, all arranged by Boston Putford.

Regarding colleges I have put my number one choice as Warash, judging by the previous cadets choices I am pretty sure I will get it!

Re: I have applied!

Sorry, who was that aimed at thrisan? Late night mind is a bit slow.

Re: I have applied!

maybe, but usually there's a high volume of applicants during this time. I know for a fact sstg are full for deck, try engineering or eto with sstg as they have few places left on them. but hope for the best.

Re: I have applied!

Nice work jackc, have you had your medical yet? Also, what college does it look like you'll be going to?

[Faust]

Re: I have applied!

Yes and nope. Start of June.

Yourself?

Re: I have applied!

Is your sponsoring company Putford by any chance?

Have you done your sea trial yet?

[Faust]

Re: I have applied!

Today I received an email from Southern Crewing Services with regards to an interview and a sea trial.

I accepted excitedly and should be heading down to Lowescroft soon enough.
