Often Museums or Universities which are doing various kinds of research will hire archeologists or have some on staff. Today, especially in Britain (I don't know the practice in the US or elsewhere), whenever a building is erected, the ground underneath must be excavated and assested for any archeological value. Thus, building firms and local government hire archeologists in this way.

Paleontologists are employed in universities, museums, government geological surveys and the petroleum industry. Most teach at colleges or universities. Some work in applied roles with surveys and companies and as consultants. Fewer are employed in museums. The competition for jobs in this field is intense with numerous applicants for each available job. Expertise and competence are essential for success. The complex blend of specialization with flexibility is rare and valuable. Referred from: http://www.unixl.com/dir/physical_sciences/geology/Paleontology/
