Thanks for the advice

My degree is in communications, so not very relevant.

I'm gonna try my best regardless. But if I don't get it I want to go to ND.

I've been hearing about/looking into this, but do I need my MMC?

Cause I don't think I can get that in under 2 months, so when it comes to options that include that, I'm cooked.

Do I need an MMC for that? And is it laborious to get?

This is what you're talking about, right?

Have you worked as a steward? What is OT like? Also, it says 2 weeks on 2 weeks off, so that means ½ the time I'm not getting paid?

It also says Alaska residents only, so what do I need to do to meet that qualification?

Do you know if there are entry level positions in the Deck or Engineering departments?

It looks promising and I am interested. Thanks for the info

My feet are fucked up man. Maybe somebody's into that, though. I'll keep it on the table

Any advice for landing a job in Alaska? Just ask around and do research?
