Auto restoration job at the museum?

Post by Jon L »

I saw the application for the auto restorer on the employment section of your website while browsing. The app says it expires last month or until filled. Was it filled? Can you guys (KevinB or 3) pm more info or give me a contact to discuss this with? Thanks in advance, Jon.

Pretty sure Reed likes tanks (and truck and other military vehicles), old ones, and making old ones look new again.

Best advice is to call or email our HR recruiting.

Sorry I am stuffed with things, or I would run it down for you.

I would be willing to trade an AMX-30 chassis with Roland SAM system mounted on top of it for an M110 :)

I thought about applying for the museum photographer position a while ago, but I'd rather finish up school first (one more year!). Hopefully something similar opens up in the industry by the time I graduate, it would be a dream job for me!
