You need an 'edge' to get in.

Being a roadsweeper is easy to get in - market is undersupplied with labour, present labour doesn't stay long, low quantitative rewards (poor salary) and low qualitative rewards (lousy working environment)

Being a Charterer is not easy to get into - market is saturated with labour with high qualifications and unique skill sets, people in the industry don't want to leave, high quantitative rewards (high salary a/o bonuses), high qualitative rewards (free food, free alcohol, excellent environment, command respect/authority)

So, to get in you basically need to push someone out, or fight against everyone for that 1 opening.

What is YOUR edge?
