Takeaways
Philosophy
This stage's philosophy is to have a bird's eye view and control of any matched new applicant. Simultaneously, to cross-check more details concerning the compliance and manage the information held in the operations center and is or should not communicate in the network office. Finally, a human intelligence check may bring additional security on selection and proposal and keep the customer satisfied.
Proactiveness
Elvictor's Operations Center is assisting the network office with the best-matched proposal selection. The avoidance of intercompany exchange of emails and rejected proposals and tuning of candidates' proposals.
Parametric Customization
For securing a higher acceptance rate from a specific Ship Manager, the Crew Manager or Operator of Elvictor's operations center may place stricter criteria of selection, which may be above the minimum requirements of those set by the Ship Manager. Elvictor's crew manager or operator has more insider knowledge of the current or upcoming crew change's situational requirements due to the collaboration with the Ship Manager's crew department's personnel.
Best Practice
Situational requirements are requirements that are variable in many cases on potential recruitments. Specific recruitment situations cannot alter the Ship Manager's requirements and compliance matrices if and only if they cannot be tagged as scenarios. Situational requirements are specific and may not occur in the future, and for this reason, human intelligence, with the help of technological tools, forms the optimum solution.

In-house-developed teleconferencing tools and integration with mobile apps like WhatsApp and Viber, and Facebook Messenger allow Elvictor's Crew Manager to have a quick communication and interview of the matched candidate. Log of the communication is automated for security reasons, and digital acceptance or rejection is enabled without email exchanges with the network offices.
