yeah I saw the posting online on USA jobs bit arnt those just temp positions. by the way thanks for the input. hopefully come January I will.know something from feds. they are trying to give me something but just waiting on Washington to give final approval
My suggestion. Go get a Masters Degree at a different school than where you got your BS. While you are getting your masters in wildlife or fisheries, get your MBA at the same time. It will be hard, but you will be much marketable when you get out. Finding smart biologists is easy. Finding people that can manage something and that understand business is difficult. It sets you up for the private sector doing wildlife work, and if you want to, you can get a good job outside of the wildlife profession with your MBA.

Not sure what they do but we have biologist and lab tec's and a lot of chemist.
Also look at environmental and conversation they do the water samples that we do the testing for. The state has a lot more employment opportunities then people thing but it is hard to find them all.
Also this is a link to neo gov a lot of different gov jobs are posted her.

Pay raises have been lacking since then as well. The state has been very stingy the last 5 years.
