John B. Lacson Foundation Maritime University (JBLFMU) took a significant step toward a strategic partnership with Italian shipping company, Orione Crew Management, Inc., as the latter visited the university to conduct their recruitment initiatives last February 26.
The delegation included Mr. Raymond Castelvecchi, Owner's Representative; Mr. Jan Chua Legaspina, President; Mr. Roberto Archangel, Training & Career Development Officer; and Atty. Leslie Ann Jose, Chief Legal Officer.
The recruitment process for the shortlisted cadet recommendees only included an interview, allowing them to demonstrate their competence, highlighting the university's consistent quality of instruction for its maritime programs.
This marks the first visit of Orione at JBLFMU to recruit prospective cadets for future onboard service.
