Shame on them!
Got the same email a couple of hours ago….
Obviously I wrote her to go f@@k herself.
They need experienced personnel, IMCA ticket, references and it’s all about 170 USD?? NO WAY!!!

Sadly someone will take it. There are a load of people spent a lot of money on courses and want to get in. Although how they will get experienced guys at that rate not sure. I worked in a zoo with big cats once does that count?

I think your find that the company is just seeing how low people will accept .
But the company seems to be contacting all free lance personnel from Divers to Client reps to rov personnel , Just think of it as a game should any of you guys reading this want to send them a email here are the contact details . If you go to the Divers forum on face book your see what I mean

With the Divers requirement gets me a 3.1U costs 5000USD + to get that cert plus costs of location and hotels etc and a Diving cert costs thousands more as well for a Part 1 HSE or ADAS Part 3 or similar Cert etc. And to work normally as a 3.1U you would be experienced Bubble Head as well to get the job in the first place not on your first dive.

But its the Dream of going in Sat which keeps those rates down longer these days as you need to do twice as much experience before doing your Sat Ticket there is no other reason why someone would take that job even if you come from the poorest of countries a 3.1U cost 5000USD the same dollars everyone uses.
