A Profession for the New Generation-Merchant Navy TMC Shipping

The world is changing. The society is evolving. The perceptions are being redefined and in this new age of globalization, the age old concepts of education and career are no longer valid. Being one of the many doctors out there looking for a job or being one of the many computer engineers just out of college with no real industry knowledge is no longer good enough.

In this new world lives a new generation who wants a career to not just pay well but give them an opportunity to travel and learn. The youth today wants a career that is challenging and adventurous. One of the few careers which promise monetary success as well as adventure and challenge is Merchant Navy. There are still other careers like photography, journalism, mountaineering, archaeology etc. which offer adventure and challenge. However, the scope of these careers is very narrow and hence the industries are very competitive. There aren’t many job opportunities in these industries and hence, there’s a high insecurity.

Unlike the above mentioned careers, a career in merchant navy is much more secure as the scope of the industry is very wide. About 90% of the world trade is carried out through sea. Therefore, there is no dearth of job opportunities.

The career might be secure in terms of job opportunities and financial remuneration but it offers its fair share of adventure and challenge. Living at sea, aboard a ship for months on an end can be quite challenging. Visiting new ports and cities adds to attraction of the merchant navy. While working on aboard a merchant vessel, sailors learn to handle emergencies, face storms and work as team to overcome problems. They grow not just professionally but personally as well.

Hence, it isn’t wrong to call merchant navy a career for the new generation which loves challenges and adventure, a generation which is not afraid of working for what they want i.e. success and respect.
