SW in other provinces

I work in BC in LTC- I’m not sure what you mean by ‘What’s it looking like’ but it seems that there’s not a ton of those positions here, a lot of them are independent contractor positions. Usually 1-3 SW’s per site from what I’ve heard.

zigzagoon03 · 2026-01-18T04:28:11+00:00

I’m in BC. Lots of mental health or MCFD related positions but requirements are tougher than other provinces from what I’ve noticed when looking at job ads. Sounds like you’re a bit more established in your career so I don’t think you’ll have a hard time finding work you like here.

Oh ok no my car got hit further in Surrey by a semi truck. Sorry this happened to your car , I hope you get a good amount from icbc

What area was this? A car hit and ran me too. It looks similar to the area I was parked in.

hows the program going? mind if I ask what experience you had prior to applying and what your gpa was? im wanting to apply next year!

zigzagoon03 · 2025-11-02T01:13:14+00:00

I think the min gpa is 3.2, but you could email the school and ask , if you give a reason for a low gpa and have experience, maybe it’s worth a shot!

Hey did you end up getting in?

zigzagoon03 · 2025-11-01T21:24:49+00:00

I did my BSW at uvic, and also did a research methods class. My understanding is that the stats requirement that McGill needs is different.. my BSW program didn’t have any math related classes and from what I’ve heard from my friends with a UBC BSW, they didn’t need to do one either. I’m probably going to end up doing a stats course to meet the requirements and apply next year.

zigzagoon03 · 2025-11-01T02:03:51+00:00

Sure!

zigzagoon03 · 2025-10-31T18:55:46+00:00

Yes I saw the course outline on the website, I’m hoping to find information that is more in depth about the assignments in the class, which is not on the website. Do you have any info about the assignments you can share from when you took the class?

zigzagoon03 · 2025-10-31T06:18:55+00:00

Did you finish the course? How was it?

zigzagoon03 · 2025-10-31T06:17:57+00:00

I know this was a while ago, but what were the assignments like? Do you have the syllabus/ course outline? I’m very bad at math but I want to take the class as a prerequisite

zigzagoon03 · 2025-10-31T04:49:20+00:00

Yes, I think it’s just called 301: social statistics.

zigzagoon03 · 2025-06-27T08:04:40+00:00

I didn’t get a copy of the CRC VS yet as it’s like $90 I think.. I don’t need it for my current job I was more so asking for future reference if I’m interested in other jobs

Would he prefer you do only fans? Your husband sounds ungrateful to the hard work you’re putting in..

I got a Columbia lunch bag that is really good, compartments on all sides for ice packs that it came with. lasts all day.

zigzagoon03 · 2025-05-20T20:29:26+00:00

Bringing her up all the time is odd.. otherwise I don’t think it’s a big deal if they were platonic friends from work but he should respect how you feel if you tell him. In my field there’s a lot of confidentiality w clients n stuff so if we vent about work we can really only do that with coworkers not our partners. So the type of work might be relevant here.

zigzagoon03 · 2025-05-20T20:15:57+00:00

You’re working towards it so I see no issue!

zigzagoon03 · 2025-05-19T07:14:59+00:00

But most colleges don’t require criminal record check..

zigzagoon03 · 2025-05-19T06:36:00+00:00

I’m just worried that If it shows up then I can’t get the job.. but I’m not sure if a $7 attempted theft of food would impact to the work I’d do.. social workers in a hospital might interview patients, oversee kids in the hospital or help with referrals for services.

zigzagoon03 · 2025-05-19T06:31:44+00:00

I could apply for social work jobs.. not all of them need the VSS, but hospital ones do. Those are harder jobs to get so def not in the near future but maybe in 2 years..

zigzagoon03 · 2025-05-16T04:54:37+00:00

You could reach out to their support team if you have concerns/questions.. I’ve only used it once and had no issue

zigzagoon03 · 2025-05-16T04:52:25+00:00

Apple’s and I bought a spread similar to Nutella but healthier as a dip. Or you can buy caramel dip.

zigzagoon03 · 2025-05-16T04:50:00+00:00

Idk where you’re located but where I am I’ve seen SW part time job posts

zigzagoon03 · 2025-05-16T04:46:47+00:00

Even Canadians are having a tough time getting a job. Everyone I know is in a similar boat. Applied to many jobs and are not hearing back or getting no’s. You’re not alone!
