Abnormal,

the age is not relevant, we took on a 50 year old as a Trainee after he had spent most of his life repairing TVs. Maturity also can count quite a lot in fitting into the offshore life.

Your technical experience certainly will count towards any ROV employment. If you wished to expand it, doing some hydraulics courses would also assist in making your CV stand out.

But the problem with having a good CV is when there are thousands of others, also with good CVs. Many people are perfect for working with ROVs, but there are so many, unfortunately a lot of the time it comes down to luck, knowing someone, or being in the right place at the right time.

Have a read through the FAQs (link over on the left), and read through the advice (and bitching) in the Rookie section as many people have come on asking the same question.
