This is my 2nd job, is it good enough? I am 26 and quit from SQ as my parents do not want me flying so much with all the accidents happening in the air nowadays.
Do ladies have a future in this industry?
I need to let them know by 16 Jan if I can join them.

i would take the offer if i'm in your shoes. don't expect to be earning big bucks from day one since you are fresh to the industry and there is quite a lot to pick up. it's a sales job but you do need to pick up technical knowledge... and entertainment is a must. it's a known fact that the decision makers in the marine industry (especially mariners) are mostly male and cheeky and you probably got the job cos you are easy on the eyes and are confident. don't worry, just project a professional image and you will be fine.
low oil prices affect charter rates and owner's S&P decisions so do note that you are not joining at the boom time.
all the best!
