地理空間アナリストの求職者へのアドバイス

Question

Imagery and Remote Sensing User Groupの皆様、こんにちは。<\/P> 私の名前はJonathan Sharpで、このUser Groupには新しく参加しました。最近、Wiser Imageryで地理空間アナリストとして雇用され、NGAと連携したプロジェクトに取り組んでいました。休職後に解雇され、新しい職を探しているところです。この分野での仕事探しについて何かアドバイスはありますか？応募してもあまりフィードバックや返答がなく、少しフラストレーションを感じています。この分野でのポジションを探すのに最適な場所やサイトはどこでしょうか？私は地理学の学位とGISの大学院証明書を持っています。どんなアドバイスや可能な情報も大変ありがたいです！<\/P> <\/P> よろしくお願いいたします。<\/P> Jonathan Sharp<\/P>

You might try checking out Civil Engineering firms. The regional and national firms all have GIS departments and the ones with natural resource departments will use imagery for their projects. Its easier to get a job if you make connections, as the others have said. If there is a company you are interested in, find a project manager/engineer on their website and call them to ask about a project they did (that you read up on so you ask relevant questions). Good luck!

Hi Jonathan!  Welcome to the community.  Have you thought about using this time to enrich your resume with some new skills that may help you stand out?  A python coding class or specialized training in imagery or spatial analysis could help distinguish you compared to other Geography graduates.  What about seeking out a leadership role in a local chapter of one of the professional organizations, such as USGIF or ASPRS?  Networking is also important; try to attend a working group or conference in your field of interest and meet new people.  Many opportunities arise from mutual business connections.  Good Luck!
