Learn how you can join the Nebraska Game and Parks team during a career fair Feb. 4 at Eugene T. Mahoney State Park near Ashland.

From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., agency representatives will be at the Crete Carrier Riverview Lodge to talk about full- and part-time job openings at locations across the state.

Positions range from hospitality to maintenance, conservation to business, and more at park and office locations and in our law enforcement, fish, parks and wildlife divisions.

Attendees can fill out job applications at the event, as well as interview for some openings.

Those wishing to attend the career fair are exempt from the vehicle park entry permit requirements by signing in at the park gatehouse and parking in designated areas.

Nebraska Game and Parks is an equal opportunity employer made up of passionate, innovative professionals who connect people to the natural world and support conservation in Nebraska. The agency has 490 full-time positions and up to 1,250 temporary ones in order to meet the needs of the state.
