Hi everyone,
I’m hoping to get some advice from current cadets or Marine Engineer Officers. I’m 23 years old, a Portuguese citizen, and I’m currently living and working in Ireland in a manufacturing job. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering (6.6 CGPA). I’m hoping someone can help me with a few questions:
Is becoming a Marine Engineer Officer a realistic goal with my background?
How do most people actually find sponsorships?
I’d really appreciate any advice from current cadets or Marine Engineer Officers. Thanks!
