Don't be afraid to fly far from the nest.

That just a fancy way of saying that when you are looking for work in the natural resources field you should not focus one area.  It will severely limit your options that you have for both seasonal and full time work and you wont get the networking that sometimes lead to the full time jobs that everyone is looking for.

But looking for jobs all over the country can lead to exhausting hours sitting at the computer looking for sites and job search engines.  This is something that is really not that fun and it can lead to many people limiting themselves on where they search.  They limit themselves simply because they don't have time to look or because they don't feel it is necessary.

Well to get a good job in this world it sometimes in necessary to look way beyond your comfort zones and away from your home state to get the jobs and experience you need to advance in your career.  It has been demonstrated that going and working somewhere not ideal for you for a couple years is a great way to get you foot in the door back in your home state.
