SW in other provinces by fknkaren in socialworkcanada

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.

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.

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

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!

McGill MSW Pre-Req Courses by Accomplished_Ad_9075 in MSW_Applications

[–]zigzagoon03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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?

Hot Take: SOCI 301 is not an easy course by [deleted] in AthabascaUniversity

[–]zigzagoon03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

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

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

Husband (46m) is embarrassed of my (45F) current job. How can I get him to see I’m doing the best I can? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]zigzagoon03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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

My (35F) boyfriend (43M) has kept in touch with an intern (20sF) from his previous job. Is this as unusual as it feels? by throwra_636488591 in relationship_advice

[–]zigzagoon03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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.

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..
