      Her womanhood isn't that relevant....? Her being smart and strong would make you think the job is hard unless you think you have those qualities. You were really just sneaking in that she was a woman and adding some positive adjectives. You're really defining YOURSELF as a "woman" by caring so much about the label.

      I’ve had B.A in Environmental science and haven’t found work in my field. Everyone either wants a masters degree or 2 plus years experience in the field doing phase 1 and 2 assessments that they don’t teach you in school. Best advice choose a special area want to work in and get degree in that such as biology, geology, environmental or civil engineering and make sure you network in college with company’s and don’t trust your advisors BS unless they have worked specifically in that field prior to taking a university job.

Also, I am the project manager from start to finish: determining consulting parties based on the site location, placing public notice ads, preliminary research for cultural and natural resources, and kicking off the process with the FCC (for telecommunications projects). There's a lot of milestone management to keep the project on schedule.

    I'm in environmental studies and I been having difficulty really finding any information on job outlook and information on what jobs are in demand. I have always been more interested in the sociological aspect of environmentalism so that's why I went for environmental studies but I do worry about the job market and I want to be prepared to know what my options are and what jobs are focused in that area. Could you do a video just about non-science environmental positions?

    • @kristina_lynn
      @kristina_lynn  4 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      Definitely a video about that is on the list! In the meantime, the best way to see what kind of jobs are available in that field is to look at job postings now. Pretend you are a new grad and start browsing job forums and see what's out there. I think not enough college/hs students do this and it can be the best way to gauge job outlook. Just give it a few months because some jobs don't get posted daily but will get posted after a few weeks.

      Blackpink Lisa there’s not much of a big difference, environmental science is a bit more broad of a subject field and includes more non technical info. I would lean towards environmental biology because I think there’s a better reputation for that degree major name. But honestly not a huge difference

    Thanks for this! As someone who is currently going after their Environmental Science degree but not exactly sure which route to take with it this was pretty helpful. Is it common for people to wear many different hats in their career at certain times? Say, few years as a research tech, few years as a animal caretaker, few years as a project manager, etc..etc? Or would it behoove me to focus all of my energy into one specified area? Also, would love to see your AUS/NZ travel vlog if you decide to do so!

    • @kristina_lynn
      @kristina_lynn  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I think it is common to do different things out of necessity. Sometimes there’s only a few related jobs available so you have to get good at spinning your experience to fit many different roles. It’s easier if you specialize in one thing to get a job in that thing, but many times job scarcity doesn’t allow for that! I would look at becoming a bit more of a generalist if I was you and get good at spinning your experience to fit multiple niches.

    I’m enrolled in a Natural resources environmental technology program starting this September at a college here in Nova Scotia, Canada. I’m having second thoughts about it. I know I like environmental studies, biology, and wildlife, but I want a job where I get to pick and choose when I’m out in the field, and something that won’t take me too far from Halifax. I’m getting this feeling with the program I’m enrolled in that I’ll be a glorified labourer in the forest and nothing more.

    It's a daunting task but it's great for every high school student to do as much research as possible into their potential careers. They need to look into what they want to do, how difficult it is to get a job in their field, where they want to live, how much they want to earn, and what the stability and upward earning potential of the job is. It's true that you will never work a day in your life if you love what you do but earning more helps pay off the student loan, car, living, and entertainment debts easier.

    I have actually just finished my degree. I have a BS in Environmental Science with my concentration being in Fish and Wildlife Management. I have put in for a position with TPWD(Texas Parks etc) for a program specialist position that they have available locally. Do you have any experience getting a position within the state? Trying to look for more options and also trying to stay flexible.

I'd just like to ask you if there are companies abroad open for international student that wants to get an internship/ojt/experience at your place? or simply can you cite companies that accepts interns?

    Hi. Thanks for the video. It was very insightful. I'm planning to apply for masters in environmental science although I don't have any prior experience or any related bachelor's degree(I'm an Electrical and Electronics Engineer). You think it is practical to switch to a different field without a bachelor's degree in environmental science.

    I’m trying to figure out what I want to study. I know I want something to do with animals and helping them. I mostly want to study them, rescue them and work with a wildlife sanctuary. Do you know a specific study/class to will get me to that? I live in America but I definitely think I want to study outside of it so that I can get more experience, there isn’t much animal diversity here (at least where I live) and I want to maybe specialize in elephants, tigers, bears, lions etc. really anything but those are some of the main

Being a vet is cool and all but it’s not exactly what I’m looking for especially in the states when you don’t get to see or help exotic animals (exotic being animals not native to the stays or not seen on a daily basis ex. I don’t want to work on cats and dogs or hamsters and snakes)

    Hi Kristina! I'm currently studying biology in university and I was wondering some things about your job: - If you work for companies, which are profit-minded, don't they want to hear only good news? (Like; 'there are no special species in the building area' etc.).
    - Is the most money still being made through fossil fuel companies? Since I rather not make money through an industry that is one of the main drivers of climate change (and are notorious for their lack in care or even corruption)
    Thank you for your video!

    • @kristina_lynn

      1. Yes when I worked in consulting they sure did want good news, doesn’t mean they got it though 😉 In Alberta as a biologist you had a professional license that required you to operate with integrity and be unbiased. Not everyone worked like that but integrity and honest reporting were my values. That’s a really good question.
      2. By not working for any companies in any way related for fossil fuels you’re cutting off a ton of your options but it’s still possible! Also take into account that we need people like you with high morals accurately reporting the impacts of oil and gas developments and helping the environment in a Boots on the ground Way! But I currently work out of the oil and gas industry since I moved to British Columbia. There are opportunities in government and the non profit world that might be more in line with your ethics :)

Do you know if I could just apply to a master's degree program in wildlife conservation with the degree I have, or do I need a second bachelor's degree? Or could I just take some science courses and do an internship and then apply for a master's program? I love your channel by the way, it's super informative! Thanks so much.
