McCormick Biological, Inc.

Biological Field Technician

June - September 2019 • Bakersfield, CA

What I liked

The people I worked with here were extremely cool, welcoming, and fun to be around. The company is small and the management is very laid back and friendly.

What I wish was different

I wish I would have started the job in April, which is when it became available.

Advice

If you are willing to work very early hours and do strenuous work in the sun, this is a good job for you. It is a very informal and friendly environment. I could not have been happier working at this company, as briefly as it was.

Biological surveyor

May - September 2019 • Bakersfield, CA

What I liked

The people and the hours. You start to bond when you have to wake up before the sun and spend hours driving in a car with them.

What I wish was different

It was a physically demanding job so it got tiring but I knew what I was signing up for.

Advice

It is hard when you first start getting acclimated to the heat and the gear. Make sure you are open with your team. If you are tired or over heated or if your feet start hurting.
