Trying to decide on Biology PhD or a job???

Thanks for the messages. I should have added that I'm already 28 so have had loads of work experience before doing my degree. For the last 6 months I've been volunteering two days a week with the Avon Wildlife Trust and getting some really great experience but everyone I speak to has different views on whether or not to do a PhD. I think the experience would be great but I get the feeling that your PhD could also limit your future plans. Unfortunately at the moment I don't know 100% what I want to do apart from work on vertebrates. Do you think a PhD gives you quite a wide range of experience or is really specialist?

I'm a recent zoology graduate hoping to get into ecology and conservation but really struggling to decide whether to focus on getting a job or PhD. It's really tough to know what advertised PhDs would entail so any suggestions would be greatly received!!!
