Found out about this awesome industry from my school careers advisor last summer after having to find an alternative to the Royal Navy. My parents don't want me to go into the military.. They have a big thing about this. So when I found out about the merchant navy I was thrilled :3
I've researched a lot and got the gist of what it takes to get to where I wanna be.
But have a few things I've been wondering about
1) Are there many school leavers? I wanna join as soon as I can and college has never been for me
2) Is it hard to get a sponsorship as a school leaver?
3) I have a part time job at costa coffee.. Is this good for my cv or should I volunteer somewhere relevant?
4) I'm taking double science rather than triple. Predicted grades are as follows: physics- C, chemistry- B biology- B maths- C English- B. My others are basically all As-Ds. Is this alright or will I have no chance against other people amazing at science and maths?
5) How are Pritchard-Gordon? I like the look of their site and I wanna work on tankers preferably.
Haha.. Yeah. Thanks and cya for now
