What’s fun?<\/strong><\/p>\nIn the first year of work in Government, we get all the information and a technical guide tutorial, where the government gives us our chance to learn step-by-step. \u00a0This is not as fast as working in a non-governmental company. Every new year, we can get a job for another position from another division in Public Government. We all, as a team of planning advisors, do not have tight timelines, because the\u00a0job has a one-year\u00a0time limit. It’s so much fun to go to 12 provinces every year to control a job and find some new professional friends in that province.<\/p>\n
What’s challenging?<\/strong><\/p>\nWe must have good, realistic planning to control plants in 12 provinces in one year, economic budgeting, technical engineering, scheduling and communication on budgeting savings to the capitol city, because if the capitol city doesn\u2019t agree, we can\u2019t made field work become a reality.<\/p>\n
What’s your advice to students?<\/strong><\/p>\n\u2022 Earth science is one of the most fascinating sciences (and so underrated). The job prospects are really good and very few professions will allow you to travel and experience the landscapes that earth sciences will. Tell me what other science allows you to combine the knowledge of physics, biology and chemistry the way you can in earth science?
\n\u2022 Enjoy what you do. \u00a0You don\u2019t have to be super brainy to succeed — just have passion!<\/p>\n
