Re: A recent anthropology graduate and looking for jobs
Ken Stuart
Hello all. I've recently joined this list to see what comes across it, so
that annoucements can be added to the Archaeological Fieldwork Server on the web. In case you haven't visited before, the AFS lists a great number of fieldwork opportunities - paid positions, CRM jobs, field schools, whatever is submitted or found on the 'net. All are invited to send postings for the AFS and to use it to find leads to any sort of fieldwork of interest. -Ken Stuart -------------------------------------------------------- Ken Stuart (kstuart@...)

A recent anthropology graduate and looking for jobs
Ashley Watson
Hi my fellow shovel bums!
I recently graduated with B.A. in anthropology from University of South Alabama on May 9th, and I am searching for jobs. I want to know if there are any job openings or leads in the northeastern section of United States, specifically in New Jersey. It may sound like that I am looking at that area only but I will look at jobs in other sections of this country also.. Thanks for any help and feedback. Cheers, Ashley Watson |

Re: new member of shovelbums...(me)
Kyle Kearney
Daniel,
Just contact your state's SHPO and they will furnish you with a list of the contract companies that work in their state. While they do not include every single company/person the list will probably help you out a lot. A good idea is to contact several different states which you might be interested in working in and get their listings too. Send out as many resumes as you can with a cover letter explaining your interests. Most companies do not advertise a lot of their project openings due to the fast start up time, so they go directly to the pile of resumes they have on file. This is the prime time of year for sending out a lot of resumes. Hope this helps. --- Nectarkind@... wrote: From: Nectarkind@...------------------------------------------------------------------------ Looking to expand your world?------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join the shovelbums network at_________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Daniel,
Your best bet is to contact your State Archaeologist to see who they have listed in their files. Most offices maintain a listing of folks that either have offices in that state or at least do work in that state. I found this to be my best source when tracking down private sector jobs.

new member of shovelbums...(me)
To shovelbums,
I'm a December grad from the U. of Northern Iowa. Luckily, I've had a chance to get my feet wet with both the Forest Service and the Park Service. I have little difficulty finding job announcements for these (and other) gov't positions. My question: how do I find out about private sector arch. positions? I've heard of a few agencies, even within the state of Iowa, but I've had no luck locating them. Any suggestions? Thanks....Daniel VanVuren |

Palaeolithic Fieldschool Leads
petravic
Hello to all,
This might possibly be off the track for shovelbums, but does anybody know of a good fieldschool for Palaeolithic France, or eastern Europe. I really want to find something with a classroom component as well as practical experience. I have a BA in anthro, teach secondary hist, anthro, & bio, and have worked at a site in Croatia. Plan to return there this September barring continued/escalating mayhem in the area, but I would also like to work earlier, during the summer months. Any leads would be helpful and thanks in advance : ) Trace Clark petravic@... ---------------------------------------------------------- Ou sont les neiges d'antan? Ils sont ici! Villon |
