There are a zillion jobs out there if you know where to look....but most of them aren’t what you’re looking for. I’ve dug up several good internet sites that specialize in environmental jobs and sub-categories therein. These include both administrative and field work, with volunteer positions, internships, and good-paying jobs from a broad variety of employers; federal, state, non-profit, and private. I’ll put little asterisks by the ones I found most helpful but then, I’m always looking for field work, so keep in mind that those which weren’t useful to me might be useful to you. If you can't get a link to work just by clicking on it, cut-and-paste the address into the address section of your browser. Best of luck!
These links are current as of 1/3/07, if you find a broken link or can't make it work let me know and I'll fix it.


****Texas A&M University, Wildlife and Fisheries Science Job Board: http://wfscnet.tamu.edu/jobboard/index.htm

*****OrnJobs: http://www.osnabirds.org/on/ornjobs.htm
Straightforward, wide variety of bird-related jobs all in one easily-printable list. Updated once or twice a month, or you could join the e-mail list.

*****Society for Conservation Biology (SCB): http://www.conbio.org/jobs/
Search or browse, great variety. I got a seasonal job with The Nature Conservancy from this site. Updated daily.

****FlipDog: http://www.flipdog.com
This is a big general job search site now owned by Monster.com but it actually has quite a few environmental jobs listed. It also has THE BEST search engine...you can actually use it to look for a job you'd want. (use keywords)

***EcoEmploy.com: http://www.ecoemploy.com/
Very selective list of environmental jobs, not much wildlife work, but easy to skim, easy to use.

***SER Employment: http://www.ser.org
Great site, click on "careers", everything right there, mostly mid- to upper-level jobs. Also good for general restoration info.

**EE Link: http://eelink.net/cgi-bin/ee-link/view_jobs.cgi
Lots of listings, mostly director or coordinator positions, but also some very different jobs as well.

Seattle Times classifieds: http://marketplace.nwsource.com/classified/
Good way to find jobs in our (Pacific Northwest) area.

Ecology Careers: http://www.eco.org
Undergrads and recent grads only. Lots of paid internships. Great general resource for environmental careers. This is actually an organization that places employees with employers, so you deal with them rather than directly with the companies. It can be an intimidating process.

A few good jobs, clogged with old job postings that are impossible to sort out.

BiologyJobs.com: http://www.biologyjobs.com
Sometimes has a job or two posted.

The Career Center, Colorado State University: http://www.warnercnr.colstate.edu/careers/connectwithemployersandjobs.html
Sadly, this job board is not available to guests anymore. Great list of jobs for students and alumni only. Good resource for job links if you browse around a little.

Environmental Construction Engineering Architectural Jobs Online: http://www.eceajobs.com/
Formerly Environmental Contract Professionals at www.ecbonline.com. Must log in (free and annoying). Once a good site, very few jobs posted here currently.

Now requires $50 ESA membership to view. Not worth it.

Now for some companies, places, and agencies that have job listings:

Very good
