Questions people ask
Is Crew HQ a crew agency?
No. Nobody sits between crew and the person hiring. Employers search, open a profile and get in touch directly. There is no placement fee and no commission, for crew or for employers.
What makes a profile get noticed?
In this order: your main job title, where you are now, your main qualification, a CV, a photo and at least one reference. Complete profiles are shown ahead of thin ones when Crew HQ suggests crew for a position, and Premium profiles come first.
I have a job. Can I stay on Crew HQ without my crew knowing I am looking?
Set your availability to "Currently employed" and your profile is left out of crew search, or to "Employed, open to offers" to stay findable. With Premium, Stealth Mode lets you look for a new position without your current crew noticing.
How do I apply for a job?
Will Crew HQ tell me about jobs?
Yes. When a job is posted that matches your profile you get an email, at most one a week, while your profile is active and set to looking for work. You can also tick "Yacht jobs" in your email choices for the jobs round-up.
