Social Workers in Oz?
 

I'd be really grateful for any advice on this :-)

We are looking to possibly make the big move a few years from now on a skilled immigrant basis. However, after reading a few scare stories on this and other sites about the problems of finding employment I want to find out as much as I can beforehand. Does anybody have any experience or know how the job market in Oz is for Social Workers at all?

Like I said any feedback will be welcome :-)

Do you have a degree or a Diploma, If you have a degree in social work you will be fine
