 AAPA has launched a new online career center to better serve both job seekers and port/maritime industry employers. The new site, which replaces AAPA’s previous career opportunities webpage, is a full-service career center. It allows job seekers to post resumes, sort jobs by location or category, and save jobs of interest in an online account. Employers can create organization profile pages that are used for all of their listings – including the port or company’s description, logo, and employment policies – and search resumes posted by job seekers.
