"My internship has truly prepared me for this position. I was supervised at a psychiatric facility by a very knowledgeable LCSW. I was able to utilize my education and the support of leadership to become the Social Worker that I am today."

Keep in mind this is a two part question. Start this question off with a snapshot of your education. A Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) is required to be a Social Worker, a Masters Degree is preferred as well as the appropriate licensure and credentials for the state that you are working in. When discussing your work experience you'll want to keep it short. Have a few big impact experiences to share with the interviewer that will show your wide range of skills as a Social Worker.

"In addition to my Bachelors and Masters degree in Social work I've devoted many hours volunteering with our local Woman's shelter and local school. I've been lucky enough for the last 4 years to work with an amazing staff of professionals and be able to bring my experience into the homes of families that need my intervention and counseling."
