I have a degree in Fisheries Science from Virginia Tech and have a strong interest in pond management. I live in Virginia, but would be willing to move for a good job. I know this forum isn't for finding employment, but I figured this would be my best bet to find somebody who may know of something. Feel free to email me if you'd like more information. Thanks Brad jbcoll04@vt.edu

I have checked the AFS job board many times in the past, occasionally I see something I'm interested in on there, but it seems for the most part, a masters degree is required for the position or the job is just too far away (I'd prefer to stay in the south). But, I plan on continuing to check it in the future. It seems fisheries jobs are few and far between...especially nowadays.

Angler Environmental is another one... No clue if they are hiring... My best advice is look out west. Almost everyone I graduated with who stayed in the fisheries field had to go to the Midwest or West Coast to find work. Some built resumes and are now back east...

It mostly contains jobs in the south Fisheries Biologist Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks "Success is often overlooked because it dresses up in overalls and disguises itself as work."
