We miss you girl!!!!! You making any new videos? I’m in Duval as well and you’re videos are helping me so much!!!! Looking to get more info! Keep it up! #Duuuuval
Your funny. Great information and attitude. I worked on the Military Preposition Ships years ago like from 1986-95. A DOD contractor. Been to Diego Garcia, Guam/Saipan and the Atlantic. Also Desert Storm in 90-91. Former Marine Corps. I'm working for the airlines as a mechanic last 25 years.
The certificate you get during training. How long are they good for and how often will you have to renew any certification and how often do get new certification while employed by MSC.??
@@ladytrill904 Ok then that’s wassup I appreciate it!! I’m from the 904 too I went Bluewaters here in Jacksonville they basically gave out the same tests.
@@voncutt8900 that’s why I tell ppl don’t go there bc you are going go through the same clssses again . So you should just do the free ones msc will give you
Yes, because you we'll have to sit down with the FBI and get a FBI interview for your security clearance... They will know everything about you. You lie you're gone!!!
@@justsayingforafriend7010 Naaaa I called them on the phone earlier they get suprised when I'm upfront on my credit card debt I told him take it or leave it lol he encourged me to apply from MSC
Hello LT, great video. I have an interview with MSC next week, Tuesday for a JSO position. I was wondering if you have any advice. In terms of questions, references, and in general, what should I expect to encounter in the interview? How was your interview experience? Thank you for the content it is insightful and detailed. Have a great weekend.
Ohhhh that’s great !!! Wooo !! My interview was a quick phone Q&A … no really hard question at all .. but since your going in at a higher rank there will probably be more in-depth questions. I’m not really sure what they will ask you ! I wish I could be more helpful
I might sound like a tool but is there a gym near the pool u can use when waiting for ship assignment, or do u have to just sit on ur hands and play uno?
There’s actually no physical pool now … you just wait in the hotel until you get a ship assignment ! So work out all you want in the gym or any of your local gyms lol
I got a couple of questions. I'm interested in Joining MSC ever since I didn't passed MEPS to enlist in the Navy a few years ago. My problem is that I have no maritime experience and I currently work in Home Depot. Does MSC take mariners who have no seagoing experience nor Navy experience? And another question. Does MSC do Steel Beach Picnics like the Navy does?
Appreciate the info sis, I'm getting out of the navy soon and have 9 years under my belt. Is there some kind of program for veterans or do you know anybody who was prior military that joined? Any info about this would be greatly appreciated, thank you and keep doing what you doing.
I recently visited my older brother in San Diego, he's a career Navy guy with 3 years left before he gets his full 20. Anyways, he's been telling me to try to get a job at MSC after I graduate from college. Out of curiosity and it's ok if you don't know this because it's kind of weird question perhaps to ask. So when everything you talked about is all said and done and I were to say get a ship, is it possible to still live in a state like say Wisconsin, where I live now, and just fly over to the ports wherever I get assigned to a new ship? I'm asking because while relocating would be ideal, I have family members that aren't so big on that idea and I'd happily fly out. Do know if that can be done or if you worked with anyone who has done something like that? I'm going out on limb on this one because I really would like to work for MSC because I got medically discharged from the Navy in 2007 during basic and I'd still like to try and serve my country in way or another. My brother insists that I don't have any real setbacks medically speaking besides my prescriptions from my anxiety which I can pack plenty and I can also get enough of my other medications over the the counter.
Whenever u check into the “pool” witch is the office for MSC located in VA and Cali you don’t have to live in the area . I live in FL and fly to check into the VA pool then wait in the hotel til I get my ship assignment .
@@ladytrill904 Cool, that sounds Awesome. I'd love to still in Wisconsin and just fly to VA then. My older brother, who is still in the Navy, is going back to Norfolk and he owns a house in Virginia Beach. With him there, it might be easier to fly out repeatedly since my brother has a home there that I can temporally state at between jobs. Thank you for answering.
i know i'm late lol but my question is what if you already have STCW certificates do you still have to re-train? and do you have to be a wonderful swimmer to pass the swimming test because im not a good swimmer lol
if i got silect when you in a swimming class if you cant swim or cant tread in the water what will happend. when you jump to the swimming pool you wearing a life jacket or what??
Lol well you definitely want to know how to swim if you want to work on ships. If you can’t swim they will give you a second chance to take the test but if you fail you probably won’t get the job . And yes when you jump in your going be in a Gumby‘s suit .
Is the training similar to navy basic training, or rigorous basic military training? Do you have to live in Norfolk if you go MSC? What is the job you get based on? How you said if you get “selected” for supply department, what is that? Can you not choose? Do you have to take an exam to see what jobs you would qualify for? Is applying for MSC like applying for certain positions or does everyone start at the same place? Does having a bachelors in a mechanical field help you in anyway regarding the application process or job positions? Is working for MSC like working a 9-5 or do you work in different chunks of time? Like, you’d go out to sea for 2-3 months and come back and you’re off for 1mth How you said you had to wait 1mth for a ship assignment, is that typical or does it vary? And why? Do they prefer military backgrounds? Is there any type of criminal record that would deny you a job with MSC? I apologize for these intricate questions. I just have so many and people being available for it on RUclips seems like the best avenue. Any answers you give would be greatly appreciated 🌱✨
Hi Morgan ... II’m going to try to answer your question the best I can lol... I’m not sure what navy basic training involves , but MSC training is very simple and not very physically demanding... There’s no exam to see what job you get ... basically if you apply to “any entry level job “ on the website they will give you the job of SU,wiper, or OS those are all entry level jobs, you can always change jobs later and move up to a higher ranking job .. when you apply online there’s going to be a set of knowledge questions and base on how you answer them, that’s how they chose what job would suite you ... Everyone don’t start at the same place . Say you wanted to be a cook for MSC and you had experience cooking in navy , you can take that experience and apply to a cook position or if you have a degree in culinary you could probably apply to be a cook too ... Yes I’m pretty sure your bachelor degree will help MSC schedule is 4 months on and 1 month home ... but there’s always ways to stay home longer lol... Since I’m an SU I work from 6am til 6pm ... that’s including working OT everyday 7 days a week ..... MSC does a really deep and intense background check .. when your filling out the questionnaire for the background check they will ask you about any jail time you done and all that ... I’m not sure what criminal background will disqualify you ... just make sure to tell the truth on the questionnaire and if you have any unpaid bills or anything at all on your credit I would try to get tht fixed . They do check credit here .... I hope I answered some of your questions
Alright then it sounds like military boot camp all over again I participated in the us army this sounds just like us navy boot camp um can I as a veteran of the us army get a waiver for the boot camp and I m 57 going on 58 with medical issue's likely taking meds for high blood pressure diabetes colesterol and other problems so would I be disqualified for this sealift command outfit ?someone holler back and let me know the real deal about msc? How much pay do you get what type of duties you are assigned etc. I really want to hear from former navy personne or coast guard veterans, thanks
Hi LT great stuff. For the Hotel, do you have a key to your room or can room service come and go? I worry that I could have valuables "Laptop" stolen, any advice on this? Thanks
They going make u do it all over again . That’s why it’s best just to get your Twic , passport, mmc book on your own and apply to msc to give you the training for free . But a lot of ppl don’t think of doing that lol . I TRY TO SAVE YALL
Thanks for the Awesome info! I got accepted as a radio electronics technician at MSF. Can you please connect me with someone who can tell me what to expect for training requirements, how long, and where it’s at? I already got all the medical stuff done and drug screening so now I’m just waiting for a date to go to NEO
Hello I like the edit video! I got selected for a wiper and still waiting for my NEO. How was the English test? And is it true it's slowing down the NEO process because of the pandemic? Thanks
Hi , the English test was so easy . I was worried about it too .. it’s literally kindergarten type stuff ... and since I’ve been back in the pool , it seems to me that neo has been getting back on track with the classes . There are a lot of new hires in training in the hotel rn. ..
Applying for a couple MSC job openings as soon as I get my medical certificate in the mail! How long after applying did you find out if you got the job? How long after they told you that they were hiring you did it take until you actually went to NEO?
I was “fast tracked” when they did a mass hiring . So it took me 2 months from the time that I apply to the time I actually arrived for Neo. Your experience may be different from mine
I’m not quite sure about that . I know they have a bus that comes every week day to the contract hotel in Norfolk, and I know a few people that are locals that take the bus to the base .. but I don’t believe they will pick you up from your house .
can you do a video on pay? and how long it takes to rank up ? like lets say if your in the deck department what is the pay scale like entry level pay ? also how long does it take you to get promoted ? in one of your videos you said you were about to purchase a house how long did it take you to get to that point ?
LT I am on my way to MSC, excited about getting in the fight to support the war fighters of our nation. My Question? when you are on NEO & Stream are your hrs of pay based on 40hrs/wk or is there overtime involved. What should one were for clothes during those basic training days.
@@ladytrill904 no like when it docks or get to its location can u get off in between shifts and explore ? And have u ever worked with my uncle brashton ? He is in msc
You have to jump off the diving board .. float for one minute .. then they do an exercise with the life raft , where you gotta swim to it and pull yourself into it
It has not been easy .. when the virus first hit, we were not able to leave the ship at all , and some ships it’s still can’t leave .. this is a really hard time rn
So I basically took the government vessel, BT Revalidation, RFPNW, and VPDSD courses in San Diego’s TRMI back in Sept 2020. I just applied for the AB position. Do I still need to take these courses even tho I already have the certs for it?
How long is the boot camp portion? And what does it consist of? I just received a "conditional offer of employment" from MSC this week and now I'm patiently waiting on the next step.
Depends on what you got hired on as .. you will do fire fighting school , small arms , swimming . Then basic safety and how to tie cargo and fork lift training... it’s bout 2-3 months ...
I joined MSC first , then I join the union once in NEO .. there will be a union rep there at neo to ask you if you want to join !! Good question I should have said that in the video !
@@ladytrill904 I got another question. When you started your journey w/ msc did you already have your certificates ? Like had u already gone thru school? I’m rlly tryn see if imma have to do the whole training/schooling all over gain wether I join the union or if I get on through msc.
I’ve seen all your comments, all the salaries are listed on the msc website, it depends on what position your in ... yes you start getting paid when you come to training , I stated in the video you get S&Q and bi weekly checks
Good evening, how do you get selected for the supply department. That's what I want do at msc. I have 4yrs experience in supply that was my mos in the marine corp.
Hi love , you can live overseas and still work for msc . But you will have to fly to the office in Virginia to get your ship assignment every time . It’s not guaranteed you will get a ship in japan .
We miss you girl!!!!! You making any new videos? I’m in Duval as well and you’re videos are helping me so much!!!! Looking to get more info! Keep it up! #Duuuuval

Sure I can !
When do u start to get paid???
Did u get ur neo date yet ?

Wow firearms training, MSC NEO is sounding better than SIU UA (unlicensed apprenticeship) in that regard!

The certificate you get during training. How long are they good for and how often will you have to renew any certification and how often do get new certification while employed by MSC.??

How was your experience being a merchant mariner, through this whole covid situation?
It has not been easy .. when the virus first hit, we were not able to leave the ship at all , and some ships it’s still can’t leave .. this is a really hard time rn
When I was in New Jersey I stayed at the crystal inn motel in eatontown.
I’m in MSC NOW AN GOING THROUGH STREAM SCHOOL AS I TYPE it’s ALOT OF INFO MAKE SHURE YOU STUDY
Hey great video! Was wondering how long it took you to go from applying to starting NEO?
2 months I was fast tracked tho ... every one time is different
@@ladytrill904 Thanks for getting back to me! I have Navy time and am hoping that counts for something and I am not waiting 6+ months haha
@@ladytrill904 how many guys do you suck off on a per ship average????
So I basically took the government vessel, BT Revalidation, RFPNW, and VPDSD courses in San Diego’s TRMI back in Sept 2020. I just applied for the AB position. Do I still need to take these courses even tho I already have the certs for it?
Usually you do need to take it over again , bc they want to train you their way .
Bruuuh idk how to swim. I just applied last night
Lol practice
Good looking out on the heads up I start next week.
How long is the boot camp portion? And what does it consist of? I just received a "conditional offer of employment" from MSC this week and now I'm patiently waiting on the next step.
Depends on what you got hired on as .. you will do fire fighting school , small arms , swimming . Then basic safety and how to tie cargo and fork lift training... it’s bout 2-3 months ...
@@ladytrill904 thank you so much for the info. I appreciate it. I was hired on as a Supply Utilityman.
@@ladytrill904did you work out before you went and is swimming necessary to know beforehand or are there any positions where swimming is not needed

Did you join the union or did you do MSC instead? I mean I know you did msc but was it through the union? Tryna weigh ma options
I joined MSC first , then I join the union once in NEO .. there will be a union rep there at neo to ask you if you want to join !! Good question I should have said that in the video !
Nah you covered more than what ppl usually cover. Preciate it
@@ladytrill904 I got another question. When you started your journey w/ msc did you already have your certificates ? Like had u already gone thru school? I’m rlly tryn see if imma have to do the whole training/schooling all over gain wether I join the union or if I get on through msc.
@@epifinieblount4632 I had no prior training til i got to MSC .. I only had the basics witch you can get with no training at all
How much a starting msc get paid and do u get paid starting from training day? Thank u have a nice day.
I’ve seen all your comments, all the salaries are listed on the msc website, it depends on what position your in ... yes you start getting paid when you come to training , I stated in the video you get S&Q and bi weekly checks
How deep is the water when you dive in ?
9ft
U have a life jacket on tho
What was the pay like and the pay period?

What about if you can’t swim ?
There’s a lot of ppl that can’t swim but it’s best if you start taking swim lessons
Did you have to take a reading or math test

Hello,
As a new mariner, how will the PAY BE??
Does this job require driving
A drivers license ? No .. if you get a certain job you will learn how to drive a forklift
@@ladytrill904 thank you
Are you Marine sea lift Command? is it Government or Private company
Government
How long does it take to complete all classes??
Are there any opportunities to live overseas working for MSC like being assigned to a ship in Japan for example.
Hi love , you can live overseas and still work for msc . But you will have to fly to the office in Virginia to get your ship assignment every time . It’s not guaranteed you will get a ship in japan .
There’s a pool in San Diego also you don’t have to go to Virginia. And many people work for MSC and live overseas. I live in Japan
can i apply for msc in norfolk ? or do i have to apply online? is there recutiers for msc that i can contact?
Good Evening, Question, How long are the contracs/Months serving with The MSC?
4-5 months if your relief on time
@@ladytrill904 Thank You Mam
