Entry Level Surveyor Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level surveyor job?
Focus on hands-on credentials that entry level employers look for: field experience from internships, coursework in geomatics or land surveying, and proficiency with equipment like total stations and GPS units. Earning or pursuing a surveyor-in-training certification gives you a concrete edge. Tailor your resume to highlight any boundary surveys, construction staking, or mapping projects you completed during school or internships.
Which companies hire entry level surveyors?
Companies hiring entry level surveyors right now include BKF Engineers, Turner & Townsend, and American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of July 2026. Engineering and consulting firms, land development companies, and government agencies at the state and local level tend to be the most active hirers at this experience level.

Yes, though most surveying roles require fieldwork, some office-based positions in data processing, drafting, and GIS mapping are available remotely or on a hybrid schedule. About 13% of entry level surveyor openings are remote or hybrid as of July 2026, so searching with a flexible location setting is worth doing if office-based work suits your background.
Are these new grad surveyor jobs?
Yes, the openings on this page include new grad, recent graduate, and junior surveyor roles. A posting is new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, accepts internship or co-op work in place of full-time history, or asks for a degree rather than a license. If you are a new grad searching for your first field or office role, these listings are matched to your stage.
