In general, keep your resume brief. Remember that captains and owners may receive dozens, if not more, resumes or CVS for every open position. If your resume or CV is novel-sized the potential employer is sure to move on to the next one. He or she simply doesn't have time to read it all. Additionally, plan to put the most important information and experience at the top of the page. You need to grab the employer's attention in the first three to six seconds. Also keep in mind that your goal is to describe to the employer what you can do for him or her. here

Even though people are applying for a job, they often forget or don't realize that the resume or CV is really a sales tool. Its purpose is to get the employer interested in hiring you because he or she can see you're a great fit for the job and a good person to have around. Your resume or CV needs to show that by presenting all of the relevant information and formatting it in a way that is easy for the potential employer to find and read.

There seems to be a growing debate today about whether cover letters are even necessary, since many employers ask you to fill out online forms and there is no opportunity to provide one. A good rule of thumb is to create one anyway and have it ready for when it is required. There will be times when you will be e-mailing or sending resumes to employers or agencies and you will need a cover letter. Recruiters at many agencies complain when they receive a blank e-mail with an attachment. They simply delete it. [links]

Keep the cover letter brief and to the point, but also make sure it accurately represents your skills and experience. Remember, just like the resume, it should be all about what you can do for the employer, not what the employer can do for you. Put yourself in the employer's shoes and think about what he or she is looking for, and reflect those qualities in both your resume and your cover letter.

Outside of the United States it is very common to include a photograph with your CV or resume. Even though this isn't customary in the U.S., because many yachting jobs are non-U.S.-based, you will often be required to provide a photo of yourself. When you include a photo use common sense. Don't upload one from your Facebook page taken at a club or bar. The photo needs to be professional. A head shot, with you wearing clothes very similar to what you will be expected to wear onboard ship - a polo shirt and shorts or khaki pants - works well. [links]

According to the Below Deck website's casting (er, hiring) page, Bravo doesn't appear to be looking for a new Below Deck cast; but by the time Season 3 is picked up (and it must be), you can be ready. There's a Below Deck application online! It's just like applying for college, except you're asking to live on a boat with 11 strangers, work really hard, get bossed around by rich people, and have your entire life filmed. The application has all of the basics of something that would be on the top of the clipboard at a doctor's office, plus a section for you to talk about your experience level and a brief bio.

This is not a route I would recommend, especially if you don't deal well with anxiety, or have much of a work ethic to speak of, but Andrew simply lied about his experience and faked his resume to get on Season 2. The guy was very clearly an actor looking to get on TV, and already had quite an illustrious (if mostly Philippines-based) modeling career. But it worked for him — he got on the show! Then, of course, it stopped working for him once everyone realized he was completely incompetent. I would recommend at least a little yachting experience, particularly if you want to be a part of the deck crew on Below Deck.

According to captain and crew's website, The Triton, only Chef Ben and Stews Adrienne and Kat had any real yachting experience to speak of when they set out on M/Y Honor. That's not to say that everyone else was an actor; they probably just had a rejection letter or two from The Real World stashed under their bed (I'm looking at you, Sam). Or they were aspiring yachties like Eddie, with at least some deck experience, or former Marines like Dave. But it's safe to say that after a pretty experienced crew made actual-captain, Captain Lee, almost pull his hair out, they upped the experience level for Season 2. And with more notoriety, come more people who both want to be on reality TV and have yachting experience. So, if that is you, you might just have the chance to eat some of Ben's 5-star food in a year or so.

Confession time: Below Deck is one of my favorite shows to watch. I love the crazy charter guests; I love when they have to get out that inflatable slide; I love watching Ben cook; I thought the penis-towel incident was fantastic; I think Eddie might be my soul mate; it's just great all around. I save the episodes for a time when I really want to relax because it's so easy to watch, but it's engaging too, because I know exactly nothing about working on a boat, let alone a 164-foot mega yacht. But at times, it seems like the people working on the boat don't know a lot about working on a yacht either. I'm always wondering how they the Below Deck crew got hired, so I started looking into it. Turns out: it's not that difficult of a process. It's much like applying for a job that doesn't result in having your entire life filmed while you live in a matchbox room and try not to fall in love with your roommate. more

So, if you're interested in getting a job as a stew, deck hand, or even engineer on Below Deck, there are a few things you can do, and they're more about being open to working hard while being filmed than having a ton of former yachting experience. (Unless you want to be an engineer — please have a lot of experience if you're going to be an engineer.)

Of course, there's a place for a picture upload, and "casting directors may invite applicants to audition via Skype." This is no interview. this is an audition. So make yourself sound either as dramatic or funny as possible, and get ready for "Season 3: The Rise of Kat." [links]
