My oldest daughter, Carlee, now 21, whom many of you have seen me post antelope and mule deer hunting stories about here on HT, is graduating from college in May. Her degree is Fisheries and Wildlife Management from SDSU in Brookings, SD. Like many of her classmates she is finding that the job market in her field is slim. Her and another female F&W graduate are looking to move out west and look for a career in a different field if necessary.
Now for the father bragging points; She is graduating in the top 10% of her class, one sharp little lady! She was raised to be and is a dang hard worker and not afraid to get dirty or bloody. She has to live somewhere with good access to hunting and fishing or she will go crazy! She loves to hunt all big game and fishes as often as possible at school. She is open to all career paths other than waitressing at this point. She will live with her friend and share rent wherever they both can find a job. A few years ago she moved to Rapid City, SD area on her own and worked as a horseback riding guide for a summer job. She worked from 8 am till sunset nearly every single day, I think she had a total of 5-7 days off for the entire summer, so she isn't afraid of sweat, and hard work. On the other hand she is a very pretty young lady who also likes to look nice and stay fit. Last summer she worked for SD GF&P as a fisheries intern, pulling nets and talking to fishermen doing creel surveys and Aquatic invasive species education, so she can also work well with the public and talk with strangers.
My point of posting this is to ask you guys that if you know of any jobs out your way I would appreciate it if you could reply or pm me of any opportunities that you think she should look into. So far she is thinking MT, WY, or CO, and I am voting for SD so that she isn't so far from home
Thanks for any advice guys and gals!
