I am looking to get started in a career in scuba diving. I saw a commercial for ITT Tech and a man was fixing underwater exibits etc.. How do I get started?
Answer:
Hi Ralph,
It's great that you are interested in a career in scuba diving. The job that you mention sounds interesting. I saw this in the Med off the coast of Kas Turkey. Once a year divers set up an underwater art exhibition.
The first thing you need to do if you are concidering a career in scuba diving is to get a scuba certification. Some jobs will require only an open water or advanced certification. Other jobs might require you to be a divemaster to work underwater.
Next, decide on what type of work you that interest you. Research anything that catches you eye. For example, if you search underwater exhibits in Google, you will find over a million results. Many of this are possible scuba job opportunities.
There are many scuba diving jobs available. I have a lot of information in my section on scuba diving careers. You can find information on different types of diving jobs, what training is required and where to look for job opportunities.
I hope this information helps you in your pursuit of a great scuba diving job.
Cheers,
Jim
