[ShovelBums.Org] Technician openings in Iowa

 

The University of Iowa - Office of the State Archaeologist anticipates openings for up to 10 full time, temporary field technicians for spring survey work on Iowa highway projects near Burlington, Oskaloosa, and Le Mars.

*Hourly pay $10.00–$13.00, depending on experience.
*Fieldwork will begin about April 4
*5-day, 40-hour weeks leaving from Iowa City and returning on weekends
*Single room hotel paid and meal cost reimbursement up to $31/day
*Transportation to and from field provided in university vehicles.
*Preference will be given to those living within commuting distance, however weekend accommodations are negotiable for well-qualified applicants

We prefer, but do not require, experience with prehistoric and historic site investigations including pedestrian surface survey and shovel testing, test unit excavation, screening, soil description and other record keeping. A limited number of openings for lab work may follow field work, so experience with artifact processing and analysis is also desirable. Computer skills including MSOffice and ArcGIS or CorelDraw, or skill in artifact illustration, flotation, or photography would be a major plus. Above all, a professional attitude recognizing that OSA and its employees represent the University and the state of Iowa, combined with the ability to work congenially and effectively with others and a willingness to work hard and learn new skills are personal characteristics we value most.

The most important aspect of this list is that it is for one purpose only.: announcing jobs/non paying volunteer postings in the international CRM field at all levels; Field Tech, Professors, SHPO's, etc...  Caveat Emptor though my friends.  Not all jobs pay the same, nor is their treatment of employees the same - as the companies are checking your references, you should also check them out - make sure they pay fair wages, treat their employees professionally, and do quality work.  If you have at least a BA you deserve fair remuneration, so ask for it, and in turn you provide your employer with excellent service.   You ARE a trained professional, NOT a "shovelbum"  - the name is in jest - act professional, expect to be treated like one.
