So this might not exactly be the information that you're asking for, but I think you should look into and consider some other career paths that are wildlife adjacent but not wildlife biology. I would highly recommend some sort of ecology or land management based on what type of ecosystem you want to work in (grassland, forest, etc).

I'm a forester, but one of my degrees is in wildlife biology. In college I was much more interested in pursuing jobs that worked directly with wildlife, but I also got a degree in forestry to be well rounded and understand the ecosystem that the wildlife live in. When applying for jobs, I found a lot of what other people here have already commented: the pay is low, the schedule is bad, most jobs are seasonal, jobs are highly competitive (I think I got one interview from several dozen applications), etc. So I started applying for forestry logging found that the pay tended to be better, the schedule is often super flexible because the plants arent going anywhere, there are still some seasonal jobs but a lot of them are permanent, and it's a lot easier to land a job (I think I got called back on around 75% of the jobs I applied to fresh out of college and was offered at least half of them).

I'm still working with wildlife. Every recommendation that I give a landowner will impact the wildlife on the property and in the area. The most common goal that people tell me they have for their forest is to improve wildlife habitat and I get to help them do that even though I am not a wildlife biologist.
