Geo-Sciences

I have done my Becholar Degree in Geology department specialize in Geophysics and joined a company where I worked as a Field geologist and Supervisor but there was no any learning criteria so I got bored and left the Company I work there for about 3 Months truly I have no experience about my field because experience comes from work here we have less opportunities to get experience that's all .
