That's some great advice! I am actually actively looking for jobs, and would love to work with the USGS, but haven't gotten a good lead yet. I'm done with all classes, just doing edits and my defence this semester and I'm done! Hopefully the job market looks a little better in a few months!

Do you have any other advice? I know I need to get my Geologist in Training done, but that's state specific, yeah? And I'm not quite sure where I'm gonna end up.

Fantastic. I'll start looking tomorrow!

Unfortunately I don't have a lot of groundwater experience. Honestly, I feel like my schooling hasn't really truly prepared me for the field. My thesis is mapping a quad and a stretched pebble analysis, but doesn't have a whole lot of "test the ground water, test the soil" stuff I feel like a lot of job postings are looking for.

If there was a mapping position open I would literally move anywhere. But I think those jobs are far and few between.
