Just wondering if anyone can help me? Ive heard that in order to stand a chance of getting employment on a tanker in the future its important you spend some time on one as a cadet. Due to us doing a 'Tanker familirisation' course that only becomes active once you have spent time actually on a tanker.
Can anyone confirm this is true? And how much time do you actually need to spend on one? 3 months? 6 months? Also, if it is true, how long does it stay valid for? As in, if i did some sea time on a tanker as a cader, and then didnt get a job on a tanker for say 5 years, would it still be ok?
Or is it all a load of rubbish?
thanks
