- Where was your last place of employment? What experience do you have?
I have been a commercial freight pilot for ten years now, seven of which were spent as an independent contractor based out of New London. I have owned and flown a number of cargo vessels, ranging from a B-27-E Clydesdale to a CT-39X Albatross and a Series-DL class Borderworlds Transport. I also have significant experience in administration, handling cargo contracting and shipping manifests.
I previously signed up with Bowex in 820 A.S., commissioning and serving as captain of the BES-Penrose, a Shetland-class Bretonian supertransport. Following medical leave, I transferred to an administrative position on Canary Wharf in late 821. What follows henceforth is my application to return to active service within the BoWEx Shipping Division.
- To what division are you applying?
I wish to return to the ranks of Bowex's esteemed Shipping Division
- Why are you interested in working for Border World Exports?
I have experienced firsthand both the riches and dangers of the shipping trade, and I realise that it is a profession far larger than any one pilot and his cargo. I amassed my own fortunes for five long years to obtain a vessel that was my pride and joy, only to have it blown out from under me on the whim of a passing ne'er-do-well having a bad day. Bowex offered me the security and safety of corporate backing, but flying with the company soon became much more than simple good sense; the men and woman of Bowex are a family, and a way to serve the Crown in ways that men like me excel.
- You happen across a Gateway convoy that is under attack by Red Hessians. What do you do and why?
What? What do you mean, "do I put sugar in my tea?"? Don't be absurd, man, we aren't barbarians here!
On a serious note, if I were to witness a Gateway vessel under heavy Hessian fire, I would instantly jump to my emergency channels and direct a maximum-strength, highly urgent distress call on all available secure frequencies.
... Directly to the Scarborough Station finance department. If those two faced, dirty-dealing criminals are stupid enough to have their ships blown up; well then, we'll make them pay a premium to replace them, eh?
- You encounter a corporate trader of Gallic origin. It croaks mockingly at you. What do you do and why?
I wouldn't bother wasting my time with him; he would surely be turning about, if not in full retreat already, at the mere sight of an armed vessel, freighter or no!
- How do you feel about Glaswegian badgers?
Wasn't that a kids' show on the New London networks? The one with all the blood and the...
No, wait, that doesn't sound right. Perhaps it was a horror film. Vicious things, anyway. I once "accidentally" offloaded a shipment of them (very carefully and humanely, of course, and with several "compromised" container locks) to a Gateway warehouse. That was a fun afternoon.

- You happen across a Gateway convoy that is under attack by Red Hessians. What do you do and why? regardless that its a Gateway convoy but Red Hessians are the enemy of the queen.
- You encounter a corporate trader of Gallic origin. It croaks mockingly at you. What do you do and why? warriors do not lower themselves to standards of other people; they live independently; according to their own standards and code of honor. My guns speaks louder than their croaks.

- Where was your last place of employment? What experience do you have? By jove! The last real employment I had was during my flying days. When I was just a lad I dreamed of streaking across the sky and claiming huns and pirates on my hull! And by god, did I! I was a proper leftenant, you see, but the pay was at the time a little poor and of course we already had George, and Margie had Rodney and Lewis on the way, so I went into business with myself and a few old chaps from the flying service. I've been hauling on my own ever since! Why, the sheer decades of hauling I have under my belt!
