📅 | Today we are supporting #DayOfTheSeafarer paying tribute to seafarers, acknowledging their sacrifice and the issues they face. Watch one of our Masters @byrogriffiths talk about what it's been like at sea during the last year #WeAreCalMac ⛴
My name's Mark and I was successful in joining the 2019 intake for Hospitality MA with @CalMacFerries it's opened up so many doorways for me & my career, would highly recommended to anyone to take the opportunity. I've learned so much already. #scotappweek20 #talentwithoutlimits
My name is Joseph, I’m 17 and on the Deck Modern Apprentice programme. It’s brilliant but hardwork, I was a bit nervous being at sea at 17 but the crew have made sure Im okay and I’m learning loads everyday - would definitely recommend it. #scotappweek2020 calm.ac/38fVJzE
My name's Beth & this is my mentor Eddie. As one of the youngest employees being on the vessel for 2 weeks can be scary to start with, he's always there to support me & answer any of my questions. I'm really enjoying it all the crew are great #scotappweek2020
My name is Adrian, I love my CalMac Engine Rating Modern Apprenticeship. I’m learning & working with amazing people who help you if you ever feel stuck. They make you feel so welcome. I’m getting to do the job I love. #ScotAppWeek2020 #TalentWithoutLimits calm.ac/38fVJzE
