Is Social Work REALLY for you? Let’s be VERY HONEST! + common misconceptions about the field
You may be wondering, "what type of characteristics and personalities thrive best in the field of social work?" In this video, I break it all the way down! I also share common misconceptions about what people assume to be common traits of social workers, so you don't feel bogged down by those. These are my thoughts based on my experience being in the field for the past 8 years and seeing whats traits helped myself and colleagues to succeed in Social Work.

God gives each of us gifts. Our gifts are not meant for us . It's meant to be shared with the people around us who's needs us. Some people are not cut out for social work. I've seen alot of videos where People say they had to leave the job due to stress. If your passion is to help people go for it . There s always going to be ups and downs and nothing will be perfect . But at the end of the day are you happy with what you've done .

This video gave me a lot of confidence in the decision to pursue my BSW. I was hesitant at first considering I'm a very introverted, self sufficient person, but the gratification and enjoyment I get by talking to and empathizing with others led me in this direction. I'm hoping I can have some fulfillment once I get out there in the field!

First video I've seen that calls the systems into question. The cards are stacked against social workers trying to do good for their communities because the systems don't even believe in the work. The systems are built to do the opposite of what social workers can achieve. It's like social workers exist in part to aid in the collateral damage dealt by the same systems that hire them. I don't think systems want social work to exist, it's an after thought. It should be a point of entry to be preventative to harm, not reactive.

Social work is very stressful and the pay is low. Nursing is stressful depending on what you do, but he pay is much better. I would definitely stick with nursing😁 I work as a nurse care coordinator and I absolutely love it! Social work burned me out so I went into nursing knowing exactly what I wanted to do.

@@melissav9979 Omigosh this is my inner debate. Should I get my MSW or go into nursing? I’ve worked as a teacher for the past several years and love it and use to work in a DV shelter. I like helping people find resources and helping them through hard situations and I like that a Master’s comes with a lot of opportunities when nursing seems more narrow. Social work also seems easier to age into compare with nursing which seems very physical. I’m still unsure.
I'm late to the party, but I just found your channel. I'm a psych major and am honestly wanting to get my MA in social work. After learning how much of a better impact I can make on a persons life I feel it'll feel much more rewarding. I am currently working in an impoverished area, and yes people hear the city name and automatically assume ghetto, dangerous, bad. But working here two years, I've seen gems amongst the "muck" and it makes me wish I could provide back to them. There are so many good people here who just do not have the resources. Thank you for solidifying my choice in pursuing my MSW :)

Finally after 20 years I’m following my path and it’s been hard but I love it.
This helped a lot, thanks!! After two years of graduate school, I’ve come to realize that I am one who sees beauty in the little things which makes me an outcast to my family at times who tends to see the negative and always knew I was different in a good way. 😊💜💜💜

I am hoping this week things will improve. I am creative, positive, and always willing to learn and grow more to become a better human every day. I have to work to help support my family and I feel as if Social Work is a career that I can stay in until retirement. I might want to have my own practice someday, and I love having animals participate when groups are being facilitated. I also love art and music, so I will find creative ways to inspire people too and help them persevere as well. I love how you pointed out that some rich people don't have a community of friends. That is so true, sometimes friends are more important than family. Thank you again for your video.

Tiffany Colon Hi Tiffany. Congrats on the new career move!! We’re not alone :) - actually very common as I learned during group interviews. When I was in the middle of the application process, I got really worried when I discovered I had to submit a resume...because my work experience is completely unrelated. But my mentor- with MSW who taught at Columbia University & New York University- encouraged and advised me to outline a resume that highlights volunteer experience and alternatives that are related. For example, if you were really involved in your church community (if you attend) or just really involved in your community, that’s worthy of highlighting. Or if you have children or anyone in your life is elderly or disabled and relies on you, that is worthy of highlighting. Also any causes that you’ve committed yourself to, or have offered your help to such as community organizing (even on the smallest scale- it’s never considered too small) or even baby-sitting. During interview process, I met other applicants like me who were transitioning too. The advantage we have is our life experience. Social Work requires self-awareness & true commitment. School administrators are also looking for your capacity to self-reflect and adjust your sails to the winds. Sometimes it’s age and life experience that gives you that. I hope this helps.

I gave up my last career to stay home to raise our daughter, who's now 4, and in re-evaluating what I think is important in life, it really feels like social work is the next move for me, but I'm terrified of not getting accepted.
Great topic and video🙌🏽. I also will say that you need to know how to navigate someone from point A to Z in direct practice and take care of yourself as compassion fatigue can lead to burnout. Have a balance. Every good counselor has a good counselor, friend, or healthy filter to speak with, especially if you feel overwhelmed with everyone else's stuff(problems, your administration duties, personal life , job deadlines numbers quota etc...)💯💯

💯 percent correct. I have been in this field for 13 years and there comes a point with all that you see that you cannot work against a system and you cannot push people who do not want to change and you are expected to be the miracle worker to fix it all. When the reality is, you can't. The beautiful thing about being a social worker though is you are right times are changing and the skills that you learn as a social worker are incredibly valuable and transferable to so many other areas. I am right now in the process of switching careers to pursue a different area all together. But I do not doubt the skills that I learned will be helpful to this new transition. I have worked as a Healthcare Social Worker and burn out is real. It's time for change.

I have always been really sure of the fact that I wanna do social work within the school system because I have indeed always been a very caring and thoughtful person who definitely loves being there for other people BUT since I have been in college, I haven’t done very well academically and have also struggled to find the motivation for studying in my social work classes. Recently I have been wondering a lot about if social work is really the right path for me due to my lack of motivation for doing well academically and getting to where I wanna be. I also struggle a lot with depression so it has been kinda confusing because I’m not exactly sure if the reason behind me being such a poor performing student is because social work isn’t really the right path for me or because I just need to get better help for my depression 😬

At college I got into strenght based perspective and it helped me in personal life also. It gets hella difficult when I meet deeply pesimistic client who seems to want to continue in selfloathing and pessimism and is unable to see any positives.
im a sociology major who wanted to go the law school route but now im thinking about social work. only thing i remembered when i graduated is that none of my fellow college soc grads were going into social work.
I could not love your content more! The idea that being in social services is all about being self sacrificing is really silly
I like your style. My counselor never smiles until end of the session. I feel more like a case study than a client getting help. My counselor never admitted they could not help me/us. My husband still want to look pretty like you after all those sessions we went to. And I still want to wear the pants. We need help. Please make video on counselors stepping up to admit when they dont have the skill to help someone. Thanks
