Hello my fellow SDN Vet School hopefuls and current Vet students!
I am currently job hunting after leaving the SA clinic I had previously worked for, in the hopes of finding one much closer to my school (traffic, gas, and time drove me nuts this past year). I am ideally looking for a clinic job again because that's where all my experience is, but I haven't ruled out non-vet related opportunities.
So..for all of you out there, how has a non-vet related employment position helped you out with your application or gave you useful skills that could apply to the vet profession? Would you recommend it or stick to vet stuff? I'm going to assume many of you volunteered while doing so to ramp up vet and/or animal related experience as well.
On a related note, I've found a pretty decently paying and flexible Internship position with the EPA for pollution prevention on the business management side of things. I'm not sure if I should go for this or just go for another assisting job.
Currently I have about 500hrs SA and 500hrs exotics hours with some LA and possibly research opportunities on the way.
