Learned a lot of new habitat management skills (chainsaw, herbicide application, wildlife surveying, etc).
Cons
Some of the area leads (whichever program your crew was partnered with) were inattentive and unhelpful. Also its a conservation corps position so the pay was mediocre and the vacation time was poor.
I got experience in a wide variety of professional skills and conservation work that really boosted my resume and my professional connections, and helped me figure out what I want to do in my career.
Cons
The pay was so low I had to live with my parents to save money. Also, workplace drama and attitudes can feel pretty high school sometimes.
