Title: I have a bachelors degree in Sociology and I was wondering how I can get a job in social work? Post by: dataplease on Aug 2, 2012 I have bachelors degree in sociology but for the last 8 years I've worked in a check cashing place. I'm trying to get into social work but I can't apply for any of the jobs because I need 1 to 2 years experience. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas as to where I can start. I've been unemployed since the end of March of 2009 so I'm actively looking for work. Thank you

This is a great way to build experience to move on to better things. Trust me.. I was a cop for 5 years and now I'm in the Federal Sector. Good luck.

Seriously, that's what most places require. Otherwise, try volunteering in some agency that helps people who are down and out so you can get some experience. Be willing to work at other jobs in agencies that use social workers and work your way up. They may even be willing to pay for you to get the master's degree since it's a high demand field.

Post by: smitag1984 on Aug 4, 2012 Around here people are taking jobs at temp agencies, in hopes of getting their foot in the door. You could volunteer someplace, but if you are out of work, I would look into temp agencies, so you could get something in your field, or start your own business. Open a day care, or do senior care, or disabled people, you could just start your own business, chase your own dreams.
