Honest Assessment
Hawsepipe ke fayde:
- Training ka bada kharcha nahi — earn karte karte seekhte ho
- Practical experience bahut strong hoti hai
- Respect milti hai industry mein — “worked his way up” image
Hawsepipe ke nuksaan:
- 8–12 saal lagenge — direct route se double
- GMDSS, ECDIS ka alag se kharcha aur time
- Kuch companies direct-entry officers ko senior promotions mein prefer karte hain
Sabse important baat:
Agar abhi 10th ya 12th PCM ke baad ho aur officer banana hai — seedha officer cadet route lo. GP Rating mein mat jao officer banne ke liye.
Agar already 2–4 saal sea time kar chuke ho rating mein — tabhi hawsepipe consider karo. Tab sense banta hai.
