What employers look forFrom the Fourth Steward / Fourth Stewardess guide
Chief stews hire fourth stews for attitude and stamina more than experience. A season of daywork in Antibes or Palma, a background in hotels, restaurants or nannying, and a tidy CV with a clear photo will get you seen. Having STCW and an ENG1 in hand is the minimum. Some bartending, barista or silver service experience helps you stand out. Agents look for people who fit easily into a crew mess, because you will live in a shared cabin for months.
