Josephine Le is hoping to start a social media revolution in shipping with the launch of her new platform The Hood.
The Cyprus-based company’s founder and managing director has created a space where maritime workers will be able to network, chat, job hunt, access education and support, and share ideas.
Le explained she has designed this specifically with the maritime industry in mind, to make it easy and efficient for people working at sea or in an office to find job opportunities.
The Hood will be free for individual users, including seafarers and other maritime professionals.
There is a subscription model for companies who are going to use the platform as a recruitment or as an advertising tool.
