Fisheries Interviewers are needed to survey boat owners and captains when they return from offshore trips fishing with rod and reel for tuna, sharks, swordfish, and other large pelagic species. Afternoon availability is required, most vessels return between 3 - 7 pm and that is when our staff needs to be on the assigned site(s). Candidates must be able to identify fish to species level and approach strangers to initiate a survey.

The Fisheries Research Group coordinates QuanTech's Large Pelagics Survey (LPS) for the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). The primary purpose of the LPS is to collect data needed for generating estimates of both the recreational fishing effort directed at large pelagic species and the recreational catch of Atlantic Bluefin Tuna. The estimates developed from this data are used for monitoring of the Atlantic Bluefin Tuna fishery. A secondary goal of this survey is to collect catch data for other highly migratory species such as billfishes, sharks, and tunas other than Bluefin Tuna.
