Internship/Volunteer opportunities at the Garden

Hello,

I wanted to pass along the good news that the Garden has been awarded a 2 year grant by the Institute for a GIS mapping project currently underway. During this time, we will continue to map the plant collections, based on geographic regions, by verifying and recording the location of each plant in the collection.
We are looking for both interns and volunteers:

1. Motivated individuals who are interested in an internship position at the Garden for class credits. The internship has a time commitment of 16 hours per month. The internship will entail data collection in the field, as well as processing data and map production in the office. The ideal candidate will need a minimum of one semester of entry level GIS classes to qualify for the internship.

2. Volunteers to help with the data collection using mapping grade GPS and ESRI software. The volunteer position also requires a commitment of 16 hours per month minimum. If you are interested in field methods for data collection, developing plant identification skills and like working in a team environment this is the perfect opportunity. Plant knowledge is not a requirement, but can be helpful.

If you happen to know of any individuals who are interested in gaining experience using GIS/GPS or have an interest in horticulture please forward this along.

Regards,
GIS Manager

The Techie and the the Feely

I made some preparations when I got home. I tossed and turned all night. At six I gathered my stuff and walked and then ran and then walked to the train. I had a paper and boarded at 7. There was a delay in the tunnel. I missed the Express. I got coffee and took the next one and was 45 minutes early for my interview City of City Planning. I had more coffee and then got lost in downtown. Eventually I arrived exactly on time.

My interviewers welcomed me. They asked me for my experience with GIS and I went through my portfolio. Typing it up was a good idea. The first was a techie and the other was a feely. The techie asked about geocoding, my specialization and applications development. The feely asked me why I wanted the job, protocol and scheduling. I asked about projects, the planning desk and community.

When the interview was over I went to the station and the train came promptly.

Unpaid Internship

Dear AT,

I haven't answered your email over the past few weeks because I haven't really been able to decide whether I should participate in your internship program.  I feel like I need to put a lot of effort into getting a job that pays.  However, I have a lot of friends that have turned unpaid internships into jobs.

I live in the City and it would take me a lot of time to commute daily.  I am wondering about the required time commitment and scope of work?
