Results of this survey are revealing why I’ve been having the absolute worst time in the ecology / conservation job market for 3 years now. How long must I toil in seasonal jobs /internships before I can successfully compete with the masses for a stable and permanent position 😭😭😭

it depends— soil nutrient/carbon cycling, soil physics/erosion, sedimentology (arguably just wet soil), soil pollution/toxicology, soil microbiology, etc can all fall under other bins here

Oh ok I learned most of that stuff in geology, maybe that last box can be “geosciences” since that includes paleo and seds and soils and hardrock.
