The Maine Warden Service will open a hiring process for game wardens in April, and is staging a series of 13 informational sessions across the state for those who might be interested in becoming a warden.
Candidates must be 21 years old to apply, or be 20 and have accumulated 60 college credits.
A list of other qualification standards and frequently asked questions is available here.
Potential applicants who are unable to attend an informational session can send email to john.macdonald@maine.gov and set up a meeting with a recruiter.
Preregistration for the meetings is suggested, but not required. Click on the link on an informational session to access the reservation page for that event.
