Hi :) I'm considering a career in social work and was wondering what a typical day in the life would look like. How much of it is based in technical aspects like answering emails or personal aspects like physically speaking to a client? What is something I should know if im considering a career in this field. Also is there any way that I could have a better chance at landing a well paying job out of uni?

How do you balance doing a career from college with a biology or business degree with your passion of wanting to do trades. Some summers I am doing an internship at a company but I also want to focus on trades like working on cars and concrete/laborer because it’s fun. Does anyone else have the same predicament?? #Spring24
I am currently double majoring in Business Administration and Communication Studies, and will be interning at a company for a design/marketing position. I always have the thought in the back of my mind to work in trades but feel like I should focus on my business degree. Has anyone ever done both a blue collar and white collar career? If so, can I do both? #Spring24
What careers would allow me to create something that will change the world?
I'm interested in math and science, but love writing and traveling. I don't like jobs that are not hands-on, or that are lifeless -- in other words, jobs like mechanical engineering or computer science which don't deal with life. I want to get out of "the matrix", but I can't for the life of me find or decide on a career where I can pretty much be guaranteed to create something that will change the world but won't have to sit on a computer all day.
What are some good ways to establish a healthy relationship with your manager/supervisor? #Spring24

I don't know what to do in college?
