Dear MMOs,

OSC seeks MMOs for a project in the USA, with an estimated duration of 1-2 
weeks. The survey vessel is Jones Act Compliant, so anyone who boards must be a 
US citizen; consequently, we are only looking for US-citizen applicants on this 
particular project. To minimise mob/demob costs, we are ideally looking for 
applicants who are based in Louisiana or have regular and competitively priced 
flights from their local airport to New Orleans International Airport - it 
would be helpful if applicants could indicate how long it takes to travel from 
your home to New Orleans. Rates are negotiable and on a door-to-door policy 
plus logistical (travel) expenses.

If you are interested and available, and not already on OSC's database, please 
provide copies of your CV, passport, driving licence (probably not needed, but 
useful for future reference), offshore survival and medical certificates, MMO 
and/or PAM and degree certificates. For documents not already in electronic 
format, please scan these, ideally using a flat-bed scanner (but a camera 
scanner will suffice), as photographs of documents are not often accepted due 
to suboptimal quality - presentation is everything, and clients are more likely 
to select applicants who take the time to properly scan documents. Please use 
relevant software programmes to minimise any scanned file sizes so that they 
remain clearly legible, yet easy for us to share by email with stakeholders. In 
this day and age, most of us receive emails on our mobile/cell phones, and most 
of us do not want to use our monthly mobile/cell data allowance to receive 
unnecessarily large documents that could have easily been resized using 
software programmes that are available online free of charge. If a flat-bed 
scanner creates PDF format only, which can be excessively large, open these 
documents in an image processing programme (free software available), and save 
in a different format such as JPEG, then use a suitable programme to reduce the 
file size - also available for free download online. PDF format is acceptable, 
but large file sizes are unnecessary. We still receive application emails with 
documents attached to several different emails on account of file size, which 
was normal in 1998, but not in 2018, hence this advice.

Please apply by email only to 
recruitm...@osc.co.uk<mailto:recruitm...@osc.co.uk> - recruitment enquiries to 
other OSC email addresses will not be considered.

Also, OSC will shortly be advertising permanent employment positions for MMOs 
and PAMOs, and interested candidates are welcome to apply sooner. These 
positions are for UK and EU citizens only, and successful candidates will need 
to relocate to Dunbar or nearby. In due course, further details will be 
available on various online locations and social media and on our website: 
http://www.osc.co.uk/careers

Please feel free to circulate this email amongst colleagues seeking contract 
(freelance) and permanent employment.

Thanks and kind regards,
