About 'social work jobs in'|... in australia with my... this weird job called a social educator, working for these...through while we worked i supported...








So               you've               decided               you               want               to               be               a               social               worker!

What               a               great               career               choice!

As               a               social               worker               you'll               be               a               liaison,               a               mentor,               a               neighbor,               a               rule               enforcer,               a               friend,               and               much               more.

I               graduated               with               a               degree               in               social               work               in               2001,               and               worked               in               the               field               for               a               few               years               before               choosing               to               stay               home               with               my               children.

Here               are               five               tips               to               help               you               land               a               great               social               work               job               and               prepare               you               for               your               career.

Social               Work               Student               Tip               #1:               Volunteer               in               Your               Community
               One               of               the               best               decisions               an               aspiring               social               worker               can               make               is               to               gain               job               experience               through               volunteering.

It               is               a               fabulous               idea               to               do               some               volunteer               work               while               in               college.

Not               only               are               you               helping               someone               in               need,               you               are               helping               yourself               obtain               experience               to               list               on               your               resume,               get               real-life               social               work               experience,               and               determine               what               population               you               work               with               the               best.
               There               are               numerous               agencies               that               would               be               thrilled               to               have               your               time,               energy,               and               dedication.

And,               when               you               need               a               job               reference               in               a               few               years,               they'll               (hopefully)               be               happy               to               be               one               for               you.

Yes,               you               are               required               to               do               community               service               with               your               social               work               degree.

However,               volunteering               shows               that               you               are               going               "above               and               beyond"               and               truly               have               a               heart               to               help               those               in               need.

It               will               make               your               resume               stand               out,               compared               to               someone               who               only               did               the               community               service               hours               to               complete               their               degree.
               Some               social               service               agencies               to               consider               volunteering               at               are:               Big               Brothers/Big               Sisters               (there               are               so               many               kids               who               would               love               to               have               a               mentor),               CASA               (advocate               for               abused               children)               and               suicide               crisis/               hotline.

You               might               also               think               about               volunteering               with               Hospice,               at               a               homeless               or               domestic               violence               shelter,               or               a               rape               crisis               center.

Most               cities               and               large               towns               have               a               volunteer               center               to               help               match               volunteers.

(Google               your               city's               name               and               "volunteer.")
               Obviously,               you               don't               want               to               spread               yourself               too               thin.

Even               just               volunteering               with               one               agency               will               look               fantastic               on               your               resume.

Most               importantly,               you               will               make               a               difference               in               the               lives               of               people               in               need.

I               personally,               volunteered               with               CASA               while               in               college.

I               also               became               a               volunteer               for               our               local               crisis               &               suicide               hotline               shortly               after               graduation,               which               lead               to               a               full               time               job.

(This               is               in               addition               to               my               practicum               hours.)               Volunteering               is               very               rewarding               to               all.
               Social               Work               Student               Tip               #2:               Study               for               Your               Social               Work               Licensure               Exam               Early
               Another               tip               is               to               study               for               your               social               worker               licensure               exam               early.

There               are               many               online               prep               courses               to               consider.

I               invested               in               social               work               exam               study               guides,               that               I               eventually               sold               on               eBay.

(You               might               check               out               eBay               before               paying               full               price.)               I               did               have               a               brief               subscription               to               socialworkexam.com.
               Social               Work               Student               Tip               #3:               Find               a               job               before               getting               your               MSW.
               I               have               known               of               several               people               who               went               straight               from               undergrad               to               obtain               their               master's               degree               in               social               work.

From               what               I've               learned,               you               can               still               get               most               social               work               jobs               with               a               bachelor's               degree.

(There               are               of               course,               some               exceptions,               but               many               people               with               just               a               BSW               can               still               land               a               great               job.)               Most               MSW               jobs               are               for               supervisor               type               jobs.

So,               if               you               don't               want               to               be               a               supervisor               (or               at               least               not               yet),               you               might               search               for               a               job               before               applying               to               graduate               school.

This               is               just               my               two               cents,               you               can               also               go               back               to               school               later               on               if               you               wish.
               Social               Work               Student               Tip               #4:               Don't               overwork               yourself.
               There               is               no               rule               that               you               must               complete               your               degree               in               four               years.

I,               personally,               took               five               years               to               finish               my               degree.

If               you               need               to,               only               take               12-15               hours               at               a               time               to               help               you               to               be               able               to               focus               well               on               your               courses.
               Social               Work               Student               Tip               #5:               Keep               Up               Your               GPA
               This               is               a               tip               for               all               majors,               obviously,               not               just               social               work               majors.

Do               your               best               to               keep               your               GPA               at               least               3.0,               preferably               3.5.

You               will               be               more               likely               to               find               the               job               of               your               choice               with               a               higher               GPA.

Try               to               obtain               A's               in               all               of               your               social               work               classes.

As               tip               #4               says,               if               you               need               to,               take               less               hours               at               a               time.
               Social               Work               Student               Tip               #6:               Try               to               FInd               a               Summer               Internship.
               If               you               can               afford               it,               try               to               find               a               volunteer               (or               in               some               cases,               paid)               summer               internship               with               an               agency.

This               will               help               you               learn               the               part               of               social               work               that               you               can't               read               about               in               textbooks.

It               will               also               look               great               on               your               resume,               and               who               knows,               it               might               lead               to               a               full               time               job               after               graduation.
               Social               Work               StudentTip               #7:               Join               Your               College               Social               Work               Club

This               will               not               only               look               great               on               your               resume,               it               will               help               with               networking               later               on.

If               there               is               not               one               at               your               college,               then               start               one!

Ask               your               professor               for               advice               on               how               to               form               one.
               Social               Work               Student               Tip               8:               Join               Online               Forums               and               Groups               for               Social               Work               Majors               and               Social               Workers
               There               are               several               online               groups               of               social               work               majors               and               social               workers               where               you               can               get               advice,               learn               from               others,               and               just               hear               about               the               profession.
