Career building skills for social workers: #MACROSW chat 5/14 9pm EST

Are you a newly graduated social worker looking for a job? Thinking about going back to graduate school for that MSW? Then join the #MacroSW chat on May 14 at 9 PM EDT featuring guest experts Melissa Whatley & Joy Jones from the University of Alabama at Birmingham’s (UAB) Career & Professional Development. They will be answering your most pressing questions about searching and interviewing for that first social work job, how to tell your professional story through a resume, and best practices for networking, off-line & online.

We also invite social workers to share their own experiences about finding a social work job, especially a macro position, how they made the decision to go back to graduate school, or their best tip for networking, interviewing or building a resume.
