Precise filtering
Group candidates by ship type, engine make, visa, location and document validity.
Career route
The routes of the vessels a candidate served on, on a world map, region by region.
Maritime CV format
Vessels, certificates, sea service and references in one document, under your brand.
Assessment system
Online technical tests and personal competency assessment, with results as a PDF report.
See which waters a candidate has sailed and which cargoes they have carried.
The candidate enters the vessels they served on and the dates, and we plot those vessels' routes for that period on the map. Months spent in each region, ports called at repeatedly and cargoes carried on deck all come out in the charts.
Your technical department's question gets a clear answer: is this Master familiar with the ports our vessel will call at and the cargo it will carry?

Not a Word file, but a CV your technical department will actually read.
Excel, PDF or Word, whatever format it arrives in, we convert the candidate's CV into our maritime-specific format. Ship type, tonnage, main engine, flag and document validity on a single page. For crewing companies, the CV is prepared with your logo and corporate colours.
Documents nearing expiry are colour-flagged, so there are no surprises.
Measured competency instead of a hit-and-miss interview.
Candidates take online tests built for their ship type and rank. Technical knowledge, machinery and systems knowledge, safety awareness, English and teamwork are measured separately. Your technical department's own questions can be added to the test.
Results reach you as a PDF report, and every shortlisted candidate is compared on the same scale.
