[QUOTE=Lost Soul;43592]Hi all,

I am a fresh degree graduate from SIM-RMIT Business Management course. Recently, I landed a job as a marine surveyor after months of job hunting. I understand my current job is not relevant to what I studied, but could be useful when it comes to report writing.

I have tried applying to jobs such as chartering, shipbroking, which my business degree could be used, but all came to naught as I dont have the marine experience most hiring companies sought after. I intend to work a few years and gain some working experience as a marine/bunker surveyor first before evaluating my options again.

Hence, I would like to pursue a course in maritime/marine studies so that I can progress further in my chosen industry.

Any kind veterans in this industry able to advise on whether I should take up a diploma or a Masters (if any), so that I am able to take on roles such as bunker surveyor or any job opportunities in the future which my certs could come in handy.

Much Appreciated.[/QUOTE]
