What is a Career in Social Work?

LifePage – shows what is the meaning of Career Counselling?

Social Work


A Career in Social Work has always intrigued me. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to find information about What Social Work actually is. Most pages on the internet just talk about How to get into Social Work. In my quest to learn more about a Career in Social Work, I found this amazing page: https://www.lifepage.in/careers/social-work-5

Indra Shekhar Singh's point of view!

Indra Shekhar Singh invested 2 years in Social Work. Indra Shekhar Singh has worked in Social Work as Campaign Manager in Navdanya. In Indra Shekhar Singh's own words, this is how Indra Shekhar Singh got into Social Work: "After completing my Schooling from Mayo, I did my Graduation and Post Graduation from St Stephen's, Delhi University. I worked with Hindustan Times for 2 years. Today I am a Campaign Manager at Navdanya."

Career Video on Social Work

In a video, Indra Shekhar Singh has talked about various aspects of a Career in Social Work. Indra Shekhar Singh started by explaining Social Work as: "Work carried out by trained personnel with the aim of alleviating the conditions of those people in a community suffering from social deprivation." I watched the full video and I absolutely loved it.


We all know that only 10% of what is taught in Social Work is actually used in real life. The education section of the video clearly explained what is the 10% needed in Social Work. Indra Shekhar Singh touches upon these in the Education section of the Video:
  • Religious Books
  • Culture & Mythology
  • Ecofeminism
  • Reading Books
This Career demands specific Skills which only an experienced professional can lay out.
Indra Shekhar Singh then explains why these Skills are essential for a Career in Social Work:
  • Observation
  • Hand Skills
  • Patience
  • Imagination
  • Perseverance
Positives of this Career are quite interesting.
Indra Shekhar Singh believes that the following are some of the Positives of a Career in Social Work:
  • Self Satisfaction
  • Personality Development
  • Non Separation With Universe
  • Travelling
  • New Opportunities
After a discussion on Positives, Challenges complete the caricature of a Career.
And, Indra Shekhar Singh believes that one needs to prepare for following Challenges of a Career in Social Work:
  • Initial Struggle
  • Personal Attacks
  • Societal Pressure

In the final section of the video Indra Shekhar Singh talks about How a day goes in a Career in Social Work. This video is by far the best video on a Career in Social Work, that I have ever come across. To see the full Talk, one needs to install the LifePage Career Talks App. Here is a direct deep link of the Video: https://lifepage.app.link/20171212-0009
