That’s it for this week. Whether you’re looking for a new challenge or just testing the waters, I hope you find a role that fits your ambitions. Keep exploring!

Remote work is gaining traction Agree — last month I snagged a remote env compliance gig by applying within hours and putting Phase I/II ESA deliverables and 40‑hr HAZWOPER right at the top of my resume. Ugh, even with the remote bump, adjunct spots and roles with nationwide travel still screen for location flexibility, so explicitly note if you can hop on planes or teach evenings.

I’ve run into this too — one small tweak that paid off was writing the expected outcome before touching the settings.

‌⁠‍⁠​‍​‍‌⁠‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‌⁠‌‍‌⁠‌‍‍‍​⁠​‍​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍⁠​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌⁠​​‌‍⁠​‌⁠‍‌​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​⁠‌​​⁠‍‌​⁠‌⁠​⁠‍‌​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍​⁠​‍​⁠​​​⁠​‍​⁠‌‌​⁠​‌​⁠​​​⁠​‍​⁠‌‍​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‌​‍⁠‌‍‍⁠‌⁠​​‌‌‌‍‌​‍⁠‌‍‌‍‌​​⁠‌⁠‍‌‌​‍‍​⁠​⁠‌​⁠‍‌‍‍‍‌‍​‍‌​‍‍​‍​‍‌⁠⁠‌

Echoing @jacalle, a tweak that helped me land a remote groundwater modeling role: I attach a one-page project addendum listing tools (ArcGIS Pro, MODFLOW, gINT) and field methods — like putting the legend on the map so reviewers find what they need fast. Small caveat: many “remote” postings still want quarterly site visits or an on-site onboarding week, so ask early about travel/per diem.

‌⁠‍⁠​‍​‍‌⁠‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‌⁠‌‍‌⁠‌‍‍‍​⁠​‍​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍⁠​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌⁠​​‌‍⁠​‌⁠‍‌​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​⁠‌​​⁠‍‌​⁠‌⁠​⁠‍‌​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍​⁠​‍​⁠​​​⁠​‍​⁠‌‌​⁠​‌​⁠​​​⁠​⁠​⁠​‌​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌⁠​‌‌​⁠​​‍⁠‌‌‍⁠⁠​⁠‌​‌‌⁠⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‌‌‌⁠‌‌​‌‌⁠‌‌‌‌​⁠​⁠‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​⁠‌⁠​⁠​‍​‍‌⁠⁠‌

Quick example: I started adding a 90‑second screen-recorded walkthrough of my ArcGIS Pro dashboard and MODFLOW calibration (redacted) to applications, and it’s doubled callbacks for remote hydro roles. > caveat: many “remote” postings still want quarterly site visits or an on-site onboarding week, so ask — I confirm travel caps and onboarding location before the first screen.

‌⁠‍⁠​‍​‍‌⁠‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‌⁠‌‍‌⁠‌‍‍‍​⁠​‍​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍⁠​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌⁠​​‌‍⁠​‌⁠‍‌​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​⁠‌​​⁠‍‌​⁠‌⁠​⁠‍‌​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍​⁠​‍​⁠​​​⁠​‍​⁠‌‌​⁠​‌​⁠​‌​⁠​​​⁠​‌​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍⁠‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌⁠‌‍‌⁠‌‌​⁠‍‌‌​‍‌​⁠​⁠​⁠‍​‌​​‍‌​‌‌​⁠‍​‌​‌‍‌‍⁠‍​‍​‍‌⁠⁠‌

I’ve had the best luck with remote geology roles by setting a saved search on https://www.usajobs.gov for “1301” or “1350” with the Remote filter and applying the same day; that landed me a GS‑11 environmental specialist interview last month… Caveat: federal hiring moves slowly, so keep transcripts and certs ready for quick uploads.
