Social Worker Reviews
What is it like working as a Social Worker?
February 2015
The woes of LTC.
Social Worker:
How difficult case management can be without a nursing background. When the person I replaced and went part time would be switching job titles with me.
February 2015
Investigate pay rates.
Social Worker:
Explore all options. Don't jump into your first job offer.
January 2015
Helping families.
Social Worker:
Pros: Linking individuals to positive resources that will enhance their situation.
Cons: Lack of guidance from supervisor.
December 2014
Helping as a Calling.
Social Worker:
Pros: Helping people to find alternatives to their self-defeating behavior. Convincing my clients that change is possible, and that they can change their lives.
Cons: Currently, I find the pay disappointing. Social Workers find it difficult financially right after graduation because of the burden of student loans for Graduate School.
October 2014
The good.
Social Worker:
Pros: Working with people.
Cons: Stress.
August 2014
Stressful.
Social Worker:

August 2014
Be Aware.

To be aware that employers hire on a no fault basis, meaning that they can fire you without providing a reason.
