The market has changed.
Today, a job can be as actively looking for you as you are looking for it.
🌊 LinkedIn is a platform where:
— the hottest job openings appear
— crew managers themselves search for candidates for specific positions
— your profile can work for you 24/7, even when you’re on vacation
But there’s an important point that many people miss 👇
LinkedIn isn’t just a page with experience.
It’s a search engine.
When a crew manager types a query like “Chief Officer Tanker” or “2nd Engineer LNG,” the platform displays candidates based on relevance.
And if your profile is poorly designed:
— no keywords
— experience is described incorrectly
— important sections are missing
👉 you simply won’t appear at the top of search results
👉 which means you won’t be seen
Bottom line:
people with less experience get offers, but you don’t, simply because you haven’t been found
The good news is, this can be fixed đź‘Ś
A well-designed LinkedIn profile starts to work as a tool:
— attracts the attention of crew managers
— increases the number of incoming offers
— gives you more options, rather than relying on just one
❗️But LinkedIn delivers maximum results when paired with a strong CV and a well-designed Cover Letter.
