OK fellow helpers,

Just curious to hear from those who are new graduates from social work programs and those who have been in the field for awhile and are looking for a new experience, how's the job hunt going???

In which areas of social work are people currently looking for work: gerontology, youth, children and families, medical social work, etc.?
Are folks finding that jobs are scarce or plentiful?
What's the pay looking like?
Who is hiring right now: hospitals, county/state government, private non-profits, school districts?
Any nightmare interviews?
Any places you've fallen in love with; any recommendations? Where's a great place to work?

Let's hear your job hunt stories...
