'This book is an essential buy for any Newly Qualified Social workers about to start their first Social Work job. As a Newly Qualified Social Worker about to start my first professional job I have many anxieties and questions I needed help with. I ordered this book on the off chance hoping it may help a little, I am happy to say it is the best book I have ever bought! It has covered all the important topics I was worried about and even gives suggestions of preparation techniques and questions to ask when first starting a new job. This book will be kept with me at all times whilst finding my feet within the new job!' -
