 In the entry-level position of Ordinary Seaman, you'll be responsible for the routine cleaning and maintenance of the ship, ensuring it is safe, secure, and ready for duty. You'll also play a key role in cargo loading, unloading, and movement operations. When joining Military Sealift Command, your hard work, drive, dedication, and endorsements to your Merchant Mariner Credential will help you advance your career through internal merit promotion opportunities. As one of only three entry-level positions for which MSC externally hires, there is keen competition for these positions. So be thorough in completing your application.
