The interview didn’t focus on the cadet role—it tested you as a future Chief Officer: stability, cargo operations, and vessel responsibility.
That’s because interviews and onboard assessments evaluate more than just your current position; they check if you’re ready for the next level of responsibility. ☝️
📌 If you’re worried about PSC inspections, taking over duties “blind,” or feeling unsure about documentation, LSA/FFA, or bridge watchkeeping, you don’t need more lectures—you need clear, practical workflows for the job.
This video (https://youtu.be/d-4C5ohc2gg?si=3b3FBenaYMJM54Tu) features a clip from the 3rd Officer: Practical Course. The course covers handovers, LSA and FFA, PSC preparation, bridge watchkeeping, ballast operations, vessel documentation, and preparation for promotion interviews.
