Maritime Recruitment & Candidate Matching

Recruiters create and publish maritime vacancies, compare Matched Candidates with Applied Candidates, and review a ranked internal pool. Each candidate card explains which requirements match, which are missing, and what must be checked before the recruiter adds the selected seafarer directly to Planning.

Advantages

Vacancy Creation & Publication

Recruiters enter the rank, vessel, joining date, contract terms, salary range, English level, nationality, and other requirements, then publish the vacancy for online applications.

Matched & Applied Candidates

The vacancy page separates candidates ranked from the internal seafarer database from people who applied online or were added with the Apply action.

Explainable Selection

Recruiters see the candidate's score, matching criteria, missing information, document warnings, and previous cooperation before choosing View profile, Apply, or Plan.

Manage & Publish Maritime Vacancies

Create and edit vacancies for a rank and vessel, control whether the vessel name is public, and share published positions through the company's vacancy page. Filters help recruiters review vacancies by rank, vessel type, vessel, and status.

Compare Matched & Applied Candidates

Matched Candidates contains seafarers selected and ranked from the company's internal pool. Applied Candidates contains seafarers who submitted the online application for the vacancy or whom a recruiter added with Apply. Both panels remain connected to the same vacancy requirements.

Rank Candidates Against Maritime Criteria

Crewvector scores and orders candidates using visible operational factors:

  • rank and allowed nationality;
  • vessel-type and engine-type experience;
  • DWT similarity and experience in rank;
  • English level and salary expectations;
  • availability relative to the joining date;
  • required documents and USA or Schengen visas;
  • previous cooperation with the company.

The candidate card shows why a criterion matches, does not match, or lacks data instead of presenting an unexplained score.

Check Readiness & Continue to Planning

Candidate cards surface missing, expired, and expiring documents together with required visa checks. After selecting a candidate, the recruiter can choose Plan and add that person directly to Planning, Joining, or On Board without creating a separate hiring stage.

Includes a nominal-vs-deployable comparison table, an audit checklist, and a section on why offshore and deep-sea behave differently.
