Hello,
My name is Jim McCarthy, I am a PADI OWSI/MSDT, and I am looking for a long-term position with a professional and reputable dive company.
In addition to my PADI certifications, I also hold IANTD advanced nitrox and deep diver certifications.
After 17 years of working and traveling all over the world as a US Merchant Mariner, I am trying to get my start in this industry, and begin my career in what I truly love, diving.
I am a self-motivated honest professional with excellent diving skills, knowledge and standards. I am a very responsible diver who is sensitive about the marine environment, with an emphasis on safety at all times.
I am friendly and reliable with a good sense of humor, flexible and used to working with people of different nationalities.
Not afraid of hard work or getting hands dirty with non diving tasks. A great team player willing to work as part of a team in any capacity for right employer. I have a wide variety of skills to offer built from my years of professional maritime work.
I believe that with my past professional experience as a US Merchant Mariner, my passion for diving and skill in the water, and my dedication to safety, I would be a valuable asset to your organization.
If you think I could be the right person for your operation, please feel free to contact me anytime, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Dive safe & have a great day, Jim
