IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR
It is no secret that the government is downsizing. Private sector companies are doing the natural resources work under contract, that used to be done by government employees. This means agency experience is valued in the private sector. It also means that private companies will pay competitive wages, and provide the tools and training needed to accomplish the job. Additionally, Job Banks are good places to check out spousal employment opportunities since many families rely on dual incomes.
