With nearly two decades of experience, Dr. Stephanie Manka Schuttler shares her journey of becoming a wildlife biologist, what she has learned about this field, and provides advice for how you can become competitive for jobs.

Dr. Manka Schuttler has years of experience working in and applying for jobs in research, education, and science communication. In this book, she shares her personal journey of how she became a wildlife biologist, detailed accounts of working in museums, zoos, in academia, and for the government, what has made her competitive for jobs, and why she didn't get specific jobs despite having all of the qualifications and years of pertinent experience. In addition to her own story, she goes over the types of career opportunities available to wildlife biologists, where wildlife biologists work, what educational requirements are needed, and what else you need to become competitive for jobs in this field. Although tailored for jobs in wildlife biology, this book will also help those interested in other natural history fields. Reverse engineer your career by learning from Dr. Schuttler's journey to find your dream job.
