Candidate Assessment for maritime recruiters and HR teams
Ocean Assessment
Recruit and retain your greatest assets
We all know the risks if crews don’t work well together. Safety and environmental risks, loss of time and money – even reputation can be damaged. In a safety critical industry such as ours, the consequences can be severe.
Seafarer recruitment and promotion are key processes. That’s why you need peace of mind that you are selecting teams you can entrust with the care of your people, the environment, cargo and vessels.
The Covid-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented disruption to Manning and Crewing – those responsible, have struggled to operate without the possibility of face to face interviews and the kind of in-person assessments they undertake to evaluate a candidate for employment or promotion.
Ocean Technologies Group has a history of providing robust online assessments across seafarer competence, English language skills, ability profiling and personality testing which has proved invaluable in ensuring that our customers can continue to assess candidates for important positions, giving them an advantage over competitors struggling with deferments and delays.

Why pre-employ test your candidates?
Objective data can predict employee success
- Improved screening of candidates
- Greater insight than just a résumé or interview
- Accurate information about a person’s capabilities
- Peace of mind from objective data-driven decision making
- Reliable pre-employment data supports ongoing crew competence management and training programmes
“A successful hiring manager should be able to identify crucial factors in a candidate’s profile, such as cultural fit, technical abilities and qualifications – helping companies hire the right candidate and avoid the costly repercussions of a bad hire. Having an efficient recruitment process with the right pre-employment tests is essential to make the right hiring decision.”
Master Mariner, Capt. Torger Tau
