Maersk is the most prestigious Merchant Navy sponsorship in India. Our founders sailed with Maersk for decades. Here is exactly what it takes to get selected.
Book Your Seat →Maersk Line is the world's largest container shipping company. A Maersk sponsorship means sailing on some of the world's most advanced vessels, working under professional standards that are among the best in the industry, and building a career credential that opens doors anywhere in the world of shipping.
9CC was founded by people who sailed with Maersk. Amit Khareta (Chief Engineer) sailed on Emma Maersk class ships — the world's largest container ships at the time. Capt. Avinash Tewari (Captain) sailed with Maersk Line. We know this company from the inside.
Maersk runs its sponsorship programme in India through AMET University (Chennai) for B.Sc and B.E. Marine Engineering. Applications are rolling — there is no fixed deadline, but spots are competitive and limited.
Maersk's selection is among the most rigorous in the industry. Their written tests are strong on mathematics and reasoning. Their interviews assess English communication, professional maturity, and genuine understanding of the maritime profession. Candidates who arrive knowing only that "Maersk pays well" do not get through the interview. Candidates who can discuss why they want to be at sea — and demonstrate real preparation — do.
Our faculty include people who have lived the Maersk career. Our coaching for Maersk selection specifically addresses their test patterns, their interview expectations, and the standard they expect from cadets entering their programme. 9CC students have been placed at Maersk consistently for 6 years.
🚢 Our Co-founder Capt. Avinash Tewari is a Captain from Maersk Line. Our Founder Amit Khareta is a Chief Engineer from Maersk Line (Emma Maersk class). Who better to prepare you for a Maersk selection?
