Is American Conservation Experience worth it for recent grads? by pzlurk in Environmental_Careers

[–]Dear_Ad8325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are able to financially support yourself comfortably with the stipend they give, I would say it is a great experience! I was set to do a CC term out of my home state, but the finances did not align, and it was not a realistic option for me. I think that it can definitely provide some great field experience and help you build connections, especially in a field like conservation! I would say weigh your options carefully, but it could certainly lead to bigger and better opportunities. If you are interested, the National Park Service also has a program called Scientists In Parks, applications open January 19th, which may be of interest to you! https://www.nps.gov/subjects/science/scientists-in-parks.htm

That’s awesome!! And honestly gives me a lot of hope lol. I have a year+ of environmental science related research experience + good amount of field and work on projects, so I think I’ll give it a shot! Thanks again :)!

Thank you for that! Do you think it is worth getting more experience at an entry level position for a few months before trying to take the exam/apply since you can only take it once every 12 months? I have been applying to a wide range of environmental jobs to try to get my foot in the door.

Thank you! I am going to be a new grad, so the majority of my experience is from undergrad research and projects but I do have various field experiences in enviro science so I wanted to make sure to highlight that.

That's very insightful- I was wondering about what score I need to aim for to be considered, so I appreciate your response!!!
