RiteCrew Apply
The seafarer application portal that respects your time.
Why we built it
From paper CVs to a clean, online file.
Maritime hiring is still mostly paper CVs forwarded over WhatsApp, certificates scanned twice, and recruiters chasing missing documentation.
RiteCrew already runs the operational side - vessel schedules, crew rotations, payroll - for the fleets we manage. The Application Portal extends that same discipline to the way people apply. One submission, one click for the recruiter to bring you into the CRM.
For applicants
What's in it for you.
Apply in minutes
No passwords. Enter your email or phone, get a 6-digit code, and you're in. Continue your application later from any device - your progress is saved on every change.
Verified securely
Every document - passports, STCW certificates, medical, CV - is uploaded straight to encrypted cloud storage in the EU. Only you can see your files until you submit.
Track your status
Watch your application move from draft, to submitted, to accepted, in real time. No more wondering whether your CV reached the right desk.
Direct to recruiters
Approved applicants land in the RiteCrew CRM, ready for vessel assignment. No double-entry, no lost paperwork, no "we'll add you to the system next week."
Mobile-first
Designed to be filled on a phone, between watches. The form keeps your progress so you can fill it across multiple sessions.
GDPR & EU residency
All data hosted on AWS in the European Union. Backups encrypted at rest. Full data export and deletion on request.
How it works
Four steps from sign-in to submit.
01
Sign in passwordless
Applicant gets a 6-digit code by email or SMS. Codes expire in 10 minutes.
02
Fill the profile
Name, rank, sea-service history, certificates, photo, CV. Save as you go.
03
Verify both channels
Email and phone confirmed before submit.
04
Submit
The application enters the recruiter review queue. Watch the status change in real time.
For RiteCrew operators
Recruiters only see complete files.
Submission gate enforces completeness
Applicants can't hit "Submit" with a missing CV, unverified phone, or under five years of sea-service history. Recruiters never see half-baked files.
Verified contact channels
Both email and phone are confirmed by OTP before submission. You can reach a candidate when you need them at sea.
Audit trail end-to-end
Every status change, every approval, every rejection is recorded with the actor and timestamp.
One-click import
Approved applicants are pushed straight into the RiteCrew CRM - no re-typing names, no re-uploading scans.
What we collect
Only what crewing recruiters actually need.
- Identity (legal name, passport / national photo, date and place of birth)
- Contact (email + phone, both verified)
- Professional history (rank applied for, total months at sea, sea-service records)
- Documents (CV, STCW, medical, passports, references, flag-state endorsements)
We don't sell, share, or train AI models on applicant data. Your file stays in the EU, on encrypted infrastructure, accessible only to approved RiteCrew recruiters until you ask us to delete it.
Trust, security, residency
Encrypted, EU-hosted, audit-logged.
- Encryption at rest for every uploaded document.
- Per-applicant access scoping - applicants only see their own files; recruiters only see files for applications they're authorised to review.
- EU residency - AWS Frankfurt / Ireland infrastructure, daily encrypted backups, GDPR-compliant retention.
- Audit log records every status change and access event, attributable to a specific recruiter account.
- 30-day deletion on request - email the address on your account and we remove your file, documents, and account.
