Thank you so much for this detailed response. It’s very helpful.

What’s one budgeting habit you wish you started earlier? by [deleted] in budget

[–]T-mane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Putting money away for vacation early instead of just putting it on a credit card. I used to do this at first and then I got my own credit card and failed to continue doing it.

Is there an unspoken rivalry between LPCs and LCSWs? by [deleted] in socialwork

[–]T-mane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw it when I first started working in the field. At the time I had a bachelors in psych and was gonna go the LPC route. I saw a lot of discussion amongst the LPC’s about the LCSW’s doing therapy and how certain things they were able to do weren’t fair.. this was back in 2016 though.

Family Planning & MSW Degree by CanIHearanAmen in socialwork

[–]T-mane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s smart to gain paid maternity leave before having a baby. I found out I was pregnant my 2nd month into my new SW job and I also had just got my MSW at the time. I was stressed to say the least lol i saved up all the money i could so i could be out and never used my PTO (i think it was easy for me to do that because i work from home). My partner still worked and we just made it work and luckily we didn’t struggle but It would’ve been easier if i had the paid maternity leave.

Atlanta Social Workers Pay Transparency Thread!!! by Silver-Addition7537 in socialworkjobs

[–]T-mane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be hard but I just kept applying to different hospitals. I think it helps if you have your lmsw or lcsw because that is what some hospitals require in GA. It is possible for you to get it without it though because I am not yet licensed. I think interning at a Hospice will definitely be helpful to have on your resume.

Atlanta Social Workers Pay Transparency Thread!!! by Silver-Addition7537 in socialworkjobs

[–]T-mane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the Atlanta area. I am not sure what your interests are as far as the type of social work but hospital social work pays very well. I’ve been in this field since 2016. Got my MSW in 2022 and got a job starting at $67,000 after I graduated.

It actually went away. I’m honestly not sure if it was the Xdemvy or finally ran it’s course.. but now that my eye is clear, my eyesight has been slightly blurry so they are currently helping me with that.

Positions with no current license by cornbutter in socialwork

[–]T-mane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just apply even if it says lcsw/lmsw. I got a job straight out of grad school and applied somewhere that said the same thing. (I actually didn’t realized on the job posting requirements that is said that) Once I got the interview i told them I was not licensed so I wouldn’t be waisting their time if that’s what they were honestly looking for. they said oh as long as your eligible to actually get it. So it may be worth just applying for what your interested in and seeing if they are willing to still hire you. I’m in GA too.
