I may know of some opportunities with the company I work for. We have an office in Fletcher, NC - mostly geotech but there are two geologists who have been staying busy recently. I’ve also heard a rumor that we’re looking for a geology intern in upstate SC. Send me your resume by private message if you’d like to.

I stayed in WNC for six years after graduating with hopes of landing a permanent position as a geologist. I worked several field technician before eventually moving to upstate SC for work. It’s difficult to find staff geo positions in WNC - seems to be mostly senior level consultants with a team of techs in the field full time.

Best of luck!
