Hiring Strategy: Dockendale opened an office in Mumbai to satisfy
Crew recruitment needs.Its policy is to restrict Crews , including Deck and
Engineering officers , to one nationality ,simplyfy language communication ,
Menu Planning and eliminates possible Cultural discord.India has a long tradition
of Seatrade and produces excellent Sailors,Ship officers with superior training
and maritime and engineering educations.New Ship officer candidates spend nine
months in shipyard training after which they are sent to sea as Junior engineers.Because
of high degree of automation and computerisation , future Dockendale officers
must come to the company with first class degrees in Mechanical engineering
from recognised universities and be completely computer literate.Employees can
bring in their relatives in to the company's emplyoment which is a incentive
and attracts top flight officer candidates for deck and engineering positions.
