Meron ba sa inyong nagtake ng BS Social Work for their 2nd degree/course? ​Nabasa ko kasi na may required na 1,000 hrs sa field/ojt. Nagresign ba kayo sa work?​​

I hope may makasagot sa question ko.

Thank you!​​

Meron ba sa inyong nagtake ng BS Social Work for their 2nd degree/course? ​Gusto ko lang magkaroon ng idea​ para ma-plan ko yung gagawin ko if ever na i-take ko yun. Nabasa ko kasi na may required na 1,000 hrs sa field/ojt.

I hope may makasagot sa question ko.

Thank you!​​

I just want to have an idea​

I’m a CPA, but I am planning to go back to school to study Social Work. Before I commit to this new path and become a Registered Social Worker (RSW), I wanted to ask people actually doing the job:

1. On a scale of 1 to 10, how stressful is the work, and what part of the job actually causes that stress?
2. How much of your time is spent doing "office work" and writing reports versus actually helping people in person?
3. Do you find it hard to stop thinking about your cases once you go home, or is it easy to keep a work-life balance?
4. What specific kinds of reports or paperwork are you required to submit on a regular basis?
5. Is it common to always work overtime, or can you usually finish everything within regular office hours?

I would love to hear your honest thoughts before I decide to make the switch.

Thank you!
