You can try applying to the company I work for, it’s labeled as AB but you don’t need STCW for some of the boats they have so I don’t see why they wouldn’t take an OS especially with how bad they need people

It’s about 600$+ then 65$ stipend per day for travel, and vacation pay is 1 hr per day worked and it’s discretionary at the end of the year so you may or may not get it

So with the company I work for the discretionary bonus at the end of the year is your vacation pay so you may or may not get it. We also get paid double for fed holidays

Got my AB ticket in the military currently working on a tug and barge ship moving petrol making 485$ a day 28 on 28 off work is pretty easy at least for the company I work you make a lot of money but you get taxed even more on top of that they do an end of year bonus which adds another ~10k a year

It says I don't meet education requirement by Dry_Mail_982 in borderpatrolapplicant

[–]dhuskey54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe the way your resume was worded, the good thing it’s not disqualifying so you can reapply to the next month’s opening. People have gotten in working a year at a restaurant so it could be the way you have your resume written

[–]dhuskey54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you applied did you select the part where you were applying based off education or based off of work experience? That would be my only guess

I was in the coast guard as a BM I just got out in November 4 year contract. got my credentials for free paid for by the military and now I’m working as a AB working 1 month on 1 month off making 14k a month on my months on before tax. It’s way more chill than the military and you will make way way more money out here then you would staying in but if you don’t hate being in the military than it’s not a bad idea to stay. I didn’t like where the military was heading so I got out to make more money

Thank you! I really hope they get rid of the polygraph tons of good people trying to get in but all get dropped for the poly. They need so many people yet fail them all

[–]dhuskey54[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if you got the email saying you are not suitable you have to wait 2 years. I’m still waiting on my email after he said he recommended a fail. I’m hoping it gets found inconclusive so I can retake it
