The Seaworthy Stew

Wondering what transferable skills you may already have to enter the yachting industry?

This episode runs through 6 of the best transferable skills you could add to your CV to help in getting a job on a Superyacht.

Some of the best transferable skills come from the Hospitality Industry, Babysitting and Childcare, Health and Wellness, Tradesman, Cooking and Watersports/Boat handling.

I invite you to check out the newly released Yachting CV Toolkit which gives you everything you need to transform your land based cv to a stand out yachting one.

A fast-track to creating a yachting approved cv with 3 different CV templates, copy prompts, power words to make your CV exciting to read, how to take the perfect cv headshot, apply past work experience and the secret personal profile formula which has given me proven success to working on some of the worlds most renown superyachts. A lot of love and energy went into this one as I see so many green crew members making mistakes which can send their CV straight to the shredder and that makes me sad!

The Superyacht industry is full of high net-worth individuals and celebrity personality types. They often not only have yachts, they have private jet planes to get them to their yachts and private estates all over the world.

So who are these people? From the top 10 wealthiest people in the world to celebrities and really wealthy entrepreneurs who have been smart with their investments and can afford to throw money into a big boat in the water.

Hear why it's important to understand cross-cultural etiquette when it comes to service as each nationality of these Superyacht guests have varied social etiquette and service style requirements.
