Replying to Forestry/Environmental Management graduate considering moving from Ontario to B.C.
This is probably a shot in the dark, but I know I've seen some posts by people working the B.C. forest industry on here before.
I'm currently a student in Ontario, and will be hopefully finishing up a degree in Environmental Management and eligibility to be an R.P.F. in Ontario. I have a somewhat decent resume, working as a quality checker for a tree planting company for three 2.5 month contracts during my summer breaks. However, I have zero experience in a BC forest environment and hardly any working knowledge of the area. How hard is it for someone like me (bit of useful experience back east, and a degree) to break into a decent environmental/forestry job out west?
