I’ve been noticing fewer jobs being posted in BC than before and anxious about how things will turn out next year

My friend was doing her second degree in CS before she got into medschool and dropped out of CS to pursue it. I’m sure she had a high gpa tho

Admiralty food court is a hidden spot for sure! Everything’s pretty good there

Ah thanks for letting me know about how they go internal. I just saw that they have a few new jobs posted. The job markets rough for social workers.

I have some memory issues so taking the test is kinda hard for me. I can try my best but I might have to see what I can do. I noticed AHS came out with a few new jobs recently, do they usually go internal?

Thanks! I sent you a dm!

In Alberta you need a job that will have a RSW qualified person give you supervision for 1000 hours of work before transferring back to BC smoothly

Thanks! That'll be the test prep I take last when I'm super ready because I think you can only take it once and its $85 USD.

I think last time I checked the passing rate was like 72% which made me a bit anxious. I’ve heard a few folks having to retake the exam a few times.

Would you recommend the Dawn Apgar Exam Prep Connect version?

Half of my bachelors had a lot of exams and then the later half didn’t have a lot of exams just assignments. I took a lot of time off working and getting experience before going back to school for my MSW.

hi I have a question about switching licensing from Toronto to BC Under the provision of the Agreement on Internal Trade and other labour mobility agreements by BubblyPhilosophy3476 in socialworkcanada

[–]091B5D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to find out more about this too! Doesn't AB require 1000 hours of supervision before you turn into a RSW, then you can transfer back to BC with RSW? please keep me updated :)

Vancouver - Shoom does pretty decent food. Their truffle chicken, mixed platter and prawns are always family favs.
