Looking for a job in wildlife conservation? The Michigan Department of Natural Resources might have the perfect opportunity. Now is the time to look past the snow and look ahead to summer to start applying for a seasonal job with the DNR.
DNR summer jobs are not just for college students. Jennifer Schafer, DNR Wildlife Division human resources liaison said, “These positions are a great opportunity for college students, those looking to re-enter the workforce and seniors or retirees who want to be involved in the outdoors.”
The DNR is looking for help with assisting with wildlife habitat maintenance and improvement, which may include cutting clearings and adjusting water levels; mowing, landscaping and facility maintenance; and handling tasks related to wildlife surveys, nuisance animal control and equipment operation and maintenance. Workers have the potential to gain skills to pursue a career in wildlife conservation or to just spend a fun summer outdoors.
There are currently positions open at the St. Clair Flats location, as well as throughout the state. The pay range is from $11.50 to $17.93 per hour. A link to the complete job listing:
