Social Worker Employment Letter

To Whom it May Concern:

For many years, I have felt a calling to be a social worker. I have been helping people my entire life, and I believe that being a social worker is the way I can best continue to serve people in the global community. This is because social work is about empowerment. Empowering people involves working with individuals, families, community and government organizations to understand cultures and provide for the needs -- physical, medical, emotional, and intellectual -- of that culture. Providing these essentials to all of mankind is, I believe, one of the main purposes of social work, and is the reason I am so eager and so determined to become a social worker.

During my years as a full-time student, I also held a full-time job and was the matriarch of a two-child family. There were times when it was hard to balance everything, and I believe that this experience really helped to prepare me for the challenges I will face in my future career in social work. Being bilingual, I would like to focus on social work in multicultural settings. Facilitating meaningful dialogue between various cultures within a society is something I would find especially rewarding; it is my belief that a little compassion and understanding can go a long way, and sometimes it takes little more than a calm voice to provide a solution. I have excellent communication skills, and would love to employ them to a truly good end.
