You have completed the registration…now what happens?

Checking In
To make sure that your file is always up to date, and that we have the correct contact details for you, we ask you to check in with us at least on a weekly basis, whether it is by coming by our office, giving us a call or sending an email. If you know you are going to be out of contact for over two weeks, let us know before hand, because otherwise we will presume you are no longer looking for a job and place your file on the unavailable list until you tell us otherwise. Don’t be worried about checking in too often, as we always want to hear from you!

How Long Will It Take To Get A Job?
This can take any length of time between a few hours and a few months, depending on the season, and whether your profile corresponds with the jobs we are getting in at the moment. Between April and September, it is likely that you will get offers of daywork, temporary positions or permanent positions from us within the first few weeks. Between October and March, it might take a little longer, but as long as you keep checking in regularly, we will let you know as soon as we receive a suitable position for you.

How Long Does My Blue Water Registration Last?
Forever! Once your file is placed onto our system, it remains there for as long as you want it to. When you get a job, we deactivate your file, and as soon as you tell us you are job hunting, we make you available again.

What Can I Expect From Interviews With Captains/Owners?
When a Blue Water Crew Agent arranges an interview it can be done it two ways: in person or over the phone. When we give a Captain/Owner your phone number we will always call you beforehand and give you all the information about the job. If the interview is in person, we will even give you advice such as what to wear! After interviews, we are always available for you to give us any feedback or answer any questions you may have.
