She applied at the Boston Union Hall.

As far as the qualifications needed – not sure but it was related to STCW’s.

She was a Marine Operations and Technology Major and graduated with her QMED and 3rd Mate License as well as LNG PIC and Tankerman PIC for Dangerous Cargoes and Liquids. She had a current physical and current drug free certificate.

When she went in and saw the line she was a bit disheartened, but that did not last long. She sailed a week after graduation. She had to make 2 trips to Boston after signing up - one to pick up the job and the other to get a new Fit for Duty Physical as requested by the company.
