Social Work Resume Writing

A social worker deals with individuals, groups, families, and communities to strengthen their total well-being and social functioning. So, it is important that, when designing your social worker resume, your empathy, tolerance, loyalty, and interpersonal capabilities are highlighted. As a social worker, you can work in several positions including counselling, case management, or a senior director role. However, your resume should be tailored to the exact position being advertised, so that your skills can be fused with the needs of the position. Using standardised format and style below, we will create you a social worker resume that showcases your expertise and the value you will be bringing to the postion.

Contact Details
When filling this section, there are salient points that we would be careful not to forget, such as filling out your name correctly as you normally do on a regular basis. This section would also contain your house address, phone number, and email address so that hiring managers can contact you easily.

Summary/Profile
In this section, we will help you summarise your important skills, as well as previous experiences gathered in precise sentences. This sentences will be structured to paint you in the best light, and focus on key features such as trainings and skills you’ve acquired over the years. An example of a social worker profile statement could be: an organised and driven professional, with over five years experience in casework with socially removed minority groups, great mediator, and communicator. A talented worker, who can meet deadlines and work under pressure.

Key Skills
In this section, specific social worker skills will be highlighted, which are often looked for by hiring managers when reviewing resumes. It will contain important skills gathered from previous work experiences that are likely to help you get the job such as:
  • Active Listening
  • Emotional Intelligence (EQ)
  • Critical Thinking
  • ​Communication
  • Tolerance
  • Empathy

​Social Worker Experience
It is important to include your previous work experience on your resume because it provides hiring managers insight into roles you have taken on at your previous job. We will help you highlight all your previous work experiences, and accentuate duties and achievements in previous positions using action verbs such as “standardise’’, “integrate”, “simulate”, “vitalise”, etc. Examples of a social workers’ work experience that can be featured on your resume are;
  • Evaluated and provided treatment planning and crisis intervention for people with mental illnesses
  • Successfully launched program and events for the community with over 500 participants
  • Assisted in developing programs for youth to improve health and overall wellbeing

Social Worker Education
This section will highlight your social worker educational qualifications in reverse chronological order, as well as other professional qualifications and certifications you might have gathered over the years. We will include details such as GPA, Honors, Institution Name, Graduation Year, and more, which can give you an advantage over your competitors.

Every detail will be outlined in reverse chronological order and will include the name of the certifying company and the year of certification.

​Keywords
There are specific keywords that are often used in job advertisement by hiring managers to make qualified candidates apply for the advertised position. We will incorporate these keywords and phrases in your resume to make you distinct from all the others.
