Landing a yachting job when you’re new to the industry is, without beating around the bush a daunting task for any job, let alone when you’re in unfamiliar territory.

2. Profile/Objective
3. Certifications – this would include any certificates you have attended school for, including your STCW. This could also include any medical certificates, First Aid/CPR and whether or not you’ve had your seaman’s medical done (ENG1).

   5. Professional Experience – list any previous yachting experience first if you have it, and then go on to include any relevant past experience if you don’t or are new to the industry.
4. Hobbies – this isn’t mandatory but is a nice one to include if you are big into water sports, photography, yoga etc. anything that could help while on board a yacht living and working.
