Best Diving Job Thailand

Many new PADI Divemaster and Dive Instructors struggle to find work after completion of their Divemaster and PADI IDC, so we decided at Sairee Cottage Diving to create a unique Dive Job Placement Service that offers our Divemaster and IDC candidates a high chance of getting their perfect diving job either here or in other places in the world.

Why is it not always easy to find dive jobs?

The main reason why some people struggle to find a Job as a Divemaster or Dive Instructor is that they have no help or training in finding employment in the dive industry. We at Sairee Cottage Diving believe that it is not only our goal to make great PADI Divemasters and PADI Instructors but also our responsibility to help our students find that fantastic dive job they are looking for. There are many dive jobs out there; however, it’s all about knowing where to look for them and how to go about it.
