I learnt geoscience is less competitive., Any geologist served already?

my friend is a geologist, but his application was withdrawn when he had difficulty uploading his on demand video. The bad network he encountered didn't help matter at all.

Maybe the guy was just selling gala to us and we were just buying it without lacasera!

I noticed the ''I am pleased'' ..... i was expecting We instead.

Maybe we are wrong, Time will tell.

the only success letter we're celebrating is being questioned because of "I" and "we". Nigerians sef.
The question is, why would the guy lie? To get what?

jamesbridget13:
that mail finally arrived yesterday night. It has another 10 days duration to complete it. So mail them n be hopeful


While mailing them don't forget to add ur reference number. That is how they can identify ur profile quickly

finally got the mail for the video interview after many complaints..they sent the mail yesterday...have u taken yours now?best of luck

I am sorry if my comment offended.
I tend to pay attention to details and it affects my thinking process and the way I react to things.
It is just my personal observation, and it doesn't stop anyone from getting a regret or success mail.

I would employ the person who knows the Job base on previous experience. someone who can keep the ship afloat and ensure machinery availability and reliability at all times during his/her hitch.

You keep convoluting things. The argument here is that if both candidates have similar level of experience, exposure and both of them can do the job effectively. Who would you employ. A Graduate or an ND holder? Infact I feel this should be a rhetorical question cause the answer is a NO Brainer.

Make I shook mouth for wetin nor concern me small.

In REAL life, no two persons have the same level of experience at doing things, even if they have been serving for the same number of years. One would most certainly have an edge over the other and then there is working style/preferences to look at.

Hello everyone. Please how do I get to address below from Iyana Ipaja. Thanks. I'm sorry for the digression.

I no wan stress this issue. The argument here is SIMILAR experience not SAME. No two persons are the same.
I don't want to go back repeating the same points because someone has already done justice to that. Just answer the question. Infact no need to answer the question, cause as I said before it's a No brainer. But if you guys still have opposite opinion then that's cool. I think we can all just agree to disagree.

Just get to oshodi, from there pick BRT or a commuter bus to Obalende...Ask for the address from the keke drivers around; I think there are bikes that ply the area, that would make it much easier for you. Safe man

First, there is no disagreement here, we are just giving our opinions and it's similarly the reason why HRs across different org. recruit differently.

The argument from d question centers on "same KNOWLEDGE and relative experience". Forgive me if I am not hondastanding, cause if they both have the intellectual capacity to handle the job why then should the paper qualification be d deciding factor.

I'm just saying there are other things to look out for that would surely distinguish them.

I hereby agree to disagree on this mata

It is not a rhetorical question, rather a leading question, designed to lead one into emotions.
I am sorry, deepwater is not that emotional, I am real and practical.
I have only mentioned the person i would employ and why.
What you havent understood is that degree doesn't appeal to every employment more importantly for seafarers. The earlier you come to terms with reality the better.

I understand where you are driving to, I once had that conception but I have allowed reality to set in instead of emotions.

This issue may be strange to people not familiar to marine.

Go figure out requested documents for employment of seafarers and tell me where you see degree as an added advantage Or priority.

stop this rant about documents and certifications... No one says degree is a priority. A degree is an added advantage in any profession!

you can call a degree/ academic certifications paper qualification for entry level and prolly mid level jobs. As you progress in your career, those paper qualification complements your experience. Which would you employ? a CEO with Masters degree in engineering or a CEO with M.eng and an MBA from havard. The same applies with the chief engineer position. Whilst you can get into some industries without "paper qualifications" it's always good one complements with degree's a further academic studies.

the "paper qualification" might be the edge.

On this issue, you have said nothing yet.
This is a perfect scenario of ignorance at bliss.
I was expecting you to know the difference between a sailing C.E (seafarer) and a technical manager - C.E

I have looked at your attached pics, the one from SP is for seafarers(hope you saw the emphasis on.diploma?) and one other talking about managerial role, I can even see 'construction site' on the other one. Would I have to remind you that our discuss is on seafarers? You need to be objective when trashing an issue.

You might have interacted with seafarers in past and on this occasion you are interacting with another qualified and thorough breed who is on time off and ready to clear you doubts as far as marine is concerned. This involves marine/offshore at full spread, drilling and well control inclusive. 100% practical not those books and Google stuff.

Your points and understanding of marine is shallow, hence anything i say would be total rant to you.

To engage me better on this, read up requirements for C.E (seafarers) as per STCW '95 convention as amended by manila 2010.

Once again, you have said nothing yet.

No one is saying your degree is needed. Different people with different life expectations. Is a CE not in the marine industry. Would you remain a sailor all you life or prefer to become a technical manager as you have highlighted in the post? and Why are there maritime universities? Madam, no one is saying you need a degree to get into the industry but in any case a degree remains an added advantage...just like the military or navy.
@ last bolded, no concrete information or relevance to this arguement. Just another redundant piece. I have said nothing yet because you do not understand my line of thought!
Just as you do not need a degree to become an OIM or rig manager. You can start from roustabout and then climb with different "documents a certifications" like IWCF but these days you find OIM an rig managers that are masters degree holders even with lesser years of experience... you cannot become a driller without IWCF but you can without without degree... a degree becomes an advantage. Do you understand now?? In your seagoing experience, have you not met a captain or CE that is a degree holder or even a 2nd or 3rd engineer that are degree holders? Stop this rants pls. Rather than tell me me read up, I will post a link for you here. This is for the same sailing CE.

Y'all should stop derailing this thread, theory and real life are 2 different things entirely. Ppl should learn to accept that and move on.. You guys can slide into each others dm and stop distracting us from the aim of the thread.

I am sorry bro.
Deepwater stopped reading your comments on marine affairs immediately you said STCW has no relevance nor is it a concrete information on seafarers employment requirements.

deepwater:


I am sorry bro.

who said the bolded?? I don't want to insult your intelligence. Pls re-read the post. I said the information does not relate to the argument. I debate not because I want to show knowledge, I debate to learn and that's why I put references. I read and downloaded STCW file. I have attached screenshots and I did not see anywhere they said a degree is NOT an advantage or a degree holder is not needed. Answer the question. In your claimed sea going experience, have you not met a chief officer for deck or a chief engineer for engine that are degree holder. In every profession at somelevel sometime there are always essential "E" and preferred "P" requirements and skills. That the point sister
For all of you that think it's derail, sorry. It's an opportunity for everyone to learn. No information is wasted. There won't be any special news other than invite for second stage. Until then, learn when there is an opportunity.

Dear Parcks,

Yours below is well received with thanks and i would love to learn from you as well.
However, i do not have access to read my PMs, nevertheless, i believe we can effectively learn and interact here while we keep the thread alive.
You never can tell, we could learn from others as well and get corrected or broader ideas when others chip in.
You questions are welcomed and i pray for wisdom to direct.

I am happy you have moved on swiftly, not long from now you would be just where you want to be.
All the best my e-brother.

Thanks and warm regards,
Deepwater
