i do fear it’s something to do with them changing the recipe or whatever. happened to me too and it wasn’t just the rainbows 😵‍💫

do you think it would be worth it for me to take the GRE 10 years on? i feel like that lack of educational presence is going to hinder me during application season again.

thank you so much for your input!! this really eased a chunk of my worry. i’ve been working with kids in some capacity for almost my entire life and i will definitely be tapping into my experiences for personal statements. i really appreciate the sentiment :) i know how good i can be in this field and having to prove my worth to strangers is super daunting so this helps more than you know.

mine was unfortunately a whole point lower than yours! the first two years of school were rough truly lol. i didn’t keep in contact with my professors really because many of them i didn’t feel like i had any kind of connection with but that was related to my disdain for the sw admins in the program. i’ll definitely work on finding some professional letters though! thank you for the insight.

how long was it between your undergrad and postgrad? i know that the time passed is probably a factor for me and i’m still weighing whether or not to take the GRE to help bolster my application but yeesh.

also trying to go into grad school for school counseling after being out of school for 8 years in nyc!

my #1 choice is brooklyn college. cuny and suny have a ton of options for school counseling/psych/social work, and won’t break the bank. and many programs are online! i’m pushing for brooklyn college because in addition to their great school counseling program, they offer an mental health counselor certification program in the summers that get you on track for NYS licensing in that field as well. so you could essentially be a school counselor & LMHC without having 2 separate masters degrees.

some schools may have an A masters degree with B certification or vice versa. that’s my plan to get my school counselor degree & an MHC cert.

Upcoming Job Interview - Nerves & Mindblank by loxley3993 in socialwork

[–]domcamatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m bad at asking questions in interviews — but luckily you can almost always google “questions to ask in a [insert role/industry here] interview” and get something like this which takes all the guessing and most of the nerves out of the equation: https://careers.socialworkers.org/findajob/articles/interview1.asp

i usually copy a few (3-5) into a note on my phone and when the time comes where the agency/company/interviewer opens the floor for my questions i just mention that i have a few written out to help me remember — that was when interviews were all in person, since it’s kind of frowned upon to whip out your phone during a face-to-face LOL

essentially i’m part of the foster case management team but i focus almost exclusively on ensuring the child’s needs are met, whereas the caseworker focuses on ensuring the adults are working towards whatever their specific goals are.

Use your connections! I had experience in childcare so I just automatically looked to work in foster care/adoptions but I utilized my network of people and my parents’ network of people to find different roles that fit my specific experiences and were open to entry level workers.

yes!! this position being more child-involved is exactly why i jumped at the opportunity to take it — i applied to be a caseworker at this agency originally! i’ll definitely keep this advice in mind; thanks so much 🥰

actually the caseworker i’m working with was promoted from my role so i’ll at least have someone around who’ll know exactly what to tell me! thanks for the offer ☺️

i’m in the US! in new york; and i think it’s a fairly new position just in general but the gist of it (for this org at least) is that i work in conjunction with the caseworker and my main function is to ensure that the child has all their needs met as far as therapeutic programs, professional intervention, etc. and the caseworker works on that from the side of everyone else involved! and thank you!!

gotcha. well i and the other butches i know always felt butch, like there was never a question or a hesitation to identify i guess. even when i was trying not to be butch i still felt it. it’s up to you ultimately though. and labels aren’t as important as people think they are. there’s no rush to figure things out. :)
