- 2001. An overview of the USDA Forest Service for new employees. The program is divided into seven sections covering: the agency's history and organizational structure, the National Forest System, Research, State & Private Forestry, Fire, Wilderness, and Visitor information. The video features the diverse landscapes of the National Forests and Grasslands, and the dedicated employees who care for the land and serve people.
I understand that every organization, federal, private or otherwise, has its internal issues, flaws, political B.S. and corruption. The USFS is certainly no exception to this rule of experience-- it happens when working with systems administered by human beings. That said, I found this video inspiring. I take these speakers at their word and think what they work towards is admirable. As a young adult looking to make a difference in preserving wilderness and ecosystems, as well as to influence myself and others to the crucial role of such natural sites and systems, I would consider the USFS as a way to do just that.
wow, what a nice writeup. did you join?
Is this a field that's really hard to get into? As an Anthropology major, conservation is important to me and I find this career option fascinating.
+Benjamin Maddox Yep. It's tough. I am just now entering the National Park Service as a Ranger. There were 200 applicants for my job. I finally beat them all.
Fewer and fewer full-time jobs will open in the Forest Service as with most of federal employment. Most openings will be low-paying seasonal jobs with no benefits or stability. And there will be fewer seasonal jobs as well. Good luck in your job search. You'll be better off looking to contract work with the federal sector rather than working directly for them. Save yourself the headache and politics.

Do any of your videos teach anything or all of them useless propaganda?
Thankfully, not all of them...
great vid, it's a pity that our forests get so F**ked by political ineptitude despite the best efforts of the FS staff.

You have to be a gay minority transsexual to get a job at the Forest Service.
You guys are the biggest joke of an agency. “Science based management” and weak leadership. I’m talking about you Laurence Crabtree and Rick Hopson.
