Hello Zane - AVO is composed of three different agencies: the USGS, the State of Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys, and the University of Alaska Fairbanks Geophysical Institute. Hiring at AVO is done through the human resource departments of these agencies. As AVO currently has a very lean budget, I don't anticipate that there will be any open positions. However, you are welcome to check when it is closer to the spring. Thank you, Cheryl Cameron -------- Zane Anthony wrote: Hello Alaska Volcano Observatory team, My name is Zane Anthony, and I am a rising junior at Middlebury, studying Environmental Studies and Biology, with a minor in Art History. I was browsing your website website today and loved everything I read. I am quite interested in your work and would love to learn more about possible employment this spring. I am taking a gap semester then and I hope to pursue a full-time employment position in scientific research and writing. I would be happy to send you a resume and references, so you can learn more about me and what I have worked on in the past. I look forward to hearing from you.
