Anyone hiring entry-level on the Great Lakes? I have my TWIC card and med cert. Willing to travel anywhere and learn the job

What was your first hitch as a deckhand like? Initial red flags, quickest thing to learn? Just wanna get an idea of what everyday looks like working on the deck

I’m 23F, active TWIC card, USCG med cert, MMC processing looking for inland deckhand jobs. No experience in the maritime work but used to physically laboring work as I have experience in moving rental equipment and school transport operator alongside common knowledge of the work as I have AB and captain friends who work offshore. I’m currently looking for work to gain experience, just need someone to give me a shot. I’m currently living out of the country but wondering if making a trip for a few days to apply in person may land me an opportunity faster than emailing? Any ideas,tips, or companies are appreciated

Inland companies that are hiring deckhands right now? Need a job and the experienc, TWIC in hand already

If it’s a 28/28 or 28/14 schedule even better. I’ve been sending in applications EVERYWHERE, Kirby, Marquette,Blessey, Ingram, the list goes on, both on their sites and personally emailing their hr. Any can help get me in?? Im willing to work and learn asap.
