    Find a job in the FS field
    Hi all, I need some help -> I am pursuing a degree in FS and would like to find a job in the FS field before I have to complete the required internship when I graduate... Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    My experience is that you are most likely to get the job where you do your internship. Work 200% harder than you normally would and focus more on your internship than your schooling -- so long as you pass no one will really ever care what your marks were, but the impression you give at the lab in which you were interning can make or break a lifetime career.

    This is the biggest mistake I see people make in my lab (students come here and don't put in the same effort as they do for their schooling). Trust me, good jobs in forensic science are very hard to come by and it is definitely an arena where who you know (and more importantly, who you have impressed) are key.

    ... This goes for pretty much any job I'm sure.
