Any Social Workers? Help!

So I just graduated with my MSW and I have my first interview tomorrow with an agency. I was wondering if any current social workers could give me some tlps on possible questions, how to prepare, etc. I am not expecting to get my first job but I would like to make a good impression! TIA!

being that you can't really practice any more without your L they might ask you when you plan on taking the exam. be prepared to let them know when you wil be taking it.

where are you interviewing at?
I graduated in May with my MSW

Re: Any Social Workers? Help!

what are your biggest strengths AND weaknesses always came up in mine.

why do you want to work with this population.

how would you handle a situation such as this (insert ethical dilemma here).

why did you become a social worker.

HTH and good luck!
