So for example ,after you finish grad from ALAM you would be working as engine cadet?then rise to junior engineer?
nope. you're an engine cadet while you're in ALAM.
after grad, there will be 6month probation period, then you'll be promoted to 4th engineer based on performance. but usually people make it in 6 month. unless you're excellent during ur practical onboard ship. you'll be promoted straight into 4th engineer after grad.
btw, just to clear up something regarding the rank.
you'll notice that chief engineer will be below the captain. but actually chief ebgineer and captain hold the same position of rank. so in terms of salary, it should be equal.
captain are placed higher because they are company representative. and they hold higher responsibilities compared to others.
