Nice video, thanks for the tips. But as a trainee photographer, working on a cruise ship for the first time, do I need the STCW Certification?

Hey, yes you do but when you get your proposal you will receive an email with all the documents you need. so if they need you to do the STCW training they'll let you know, it depends on the cruise line.

Hey I think they should allow it I’m not sure it depends on the cruise line you work for. But to be on the safe side ask your doctor or the doctor you did your cruise ship medicals with to write you a later that says you need them. But if you did your cruise ship medicals already then I think that information is already included in your medicals just double check.

Hey i would say roughly about 2 months to get everything if you’re first contract but I think I would have received everything in 1 month if I didn’t get dates with big gaps. For example my STCW training took 11 days and when I booked for it they told me the next available date was the following month so I had to wait. (The earlier you book the better) Medicals take 1 day but then again I had to wait for the date when the doctor comes to Joburg. Then after your medicals you wait for like 5 days then they deliver everything to your house. But with some companies you get your medicals on the same day after doing them💯 Visa is usually 1 day you can get it the day of your interview but what took long is waiting for the interview date and that’s where my agent helped me with getting an interview date that’s closer
