Desired skills include (but the right candidate will leave with these skills if they don't arrive with them!):
• Strong computer skills including databases, Microsoft Office programs, and knowledge of and experience with GIS
• Field surveys, ability to read a topographic map, GPS data collection, create site records, and carry out other field mapping and data collection
• Research reference materials, interview sources
• Artifact collection, analysis, processing, and accessioning
• Good writing skills in order to prepare cultural resource survey reports and site records
• This position may include the opporunity to help serve as a member of an integrated resource team so strong verbal and people skills are a plus
• This position requires someone as interested, diligent, and organized in the office as much (and sometimes more so) as in the field
All applicants need to apply through Avue (search for avue digital services). If you do not already have an account, you will need to register.

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.
