CrewRecruit
We connect demanding and responsible shipping companies with highly competent seafarers.
Shortage of competent crew is becoming an increasing challenge and even a risk. To tackle these challenges, we created the forefront innovative recruitment solution: CrewRecruit — a combination of our in-depth knowledge of local crewing markets, strict screening and a modern digital recruitment platform to speed up the process without compromise while giving seafaring applicants a much better experience and engagement.
The CrewRecruit concept is already proven, enabling us to fill any vacancy quickly with the best seafarers:
Talent / IQ: We ensure that the seafarers recruited by us have an adequate portion of talent and IQ, enabling them to adapt to the standards and processes of their new employer, the ability to adapt to changes and to contribute with improvements.
Knowledge: Knowledge is what a person has learned from other people through ears and eyes.
Skills: Skills are the ability to perform a task in reality. Skills are the result of persistent training.
Personal characteristics: Personal characteristics include a person’s ability to understand a situation, cope with stress, and resilience capabilities. Talent/IQ and personal characteristics are elements we are born with or induced during our early childhood and are difficult or impossible to change through training and learning.
Behaviour: Behaviour is the will and ability to act in an adjusted and tailored manner to a given situation and surroundings. Behaviour is how we use and apply the other four competency elements. If a person cannot act appropriately, then all the otherwise perfect skills and extensive knowledge are wasted, and their team and colleagues will not perform in an efficient way.
