Hi
I am currently taking a course in Malta (probationary Officer Cadet). I started in Oct '13 and I love it. I am British but i decided to come here because I couldn't get on a course in the U.K because I don't have a C in maths at GCSE (although I am good in maths). I have the grades in the other subjects i.e English and Science. I felt that if I could complete this course it would show my willingness and determination to succeed in the Maritime Industry. On the course I have learnt a lot about many different subjects (chart work, navigation, stability, colregs, seamanship, meteorology, general ship knowledge(GSK), physic, maths).
I have just applied to Clyde Marine training so just waiting to hear back from them. I would stay in Malta and complete the next 3 years here but after this year I will not have accommodation as I am living with a relative but he is leaving Malta soon and getting work here is hard and a part time job would not be able to support me. This course finishes in July so I would be coming back to the U.K around July/August.
Could anyone please suggest some more companies I could apply to that are not so "hung up" on the grades and would also take someone who is very determined?
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance
Steve
