what do u guys think of social work as a profession ? how much does a social worker earn a year ?

To be a social worker you need a Master's of Social Work (MSW) which usually takes 2-3 years after college. There are usually always open positions for social workers, especially with the government, but they don't pay well. Don't expect to earn more than 40K/year even after years of experience. It's considered a job that is personally rewarding but also very difficult to deal with because you spend your days working with children in bad circumstances.
