My dream career would definitely be a social worker. I am currently a third-year student in the faculty of social administration, or you can call it social work. From a very young age, I was interested in social issues, particularly those related to children and youth. I would love to dedicate my knowledge and my abilities to help people in our society. That is why I decided to major in social work. Right now, I am almost graduated; I have one year to go, and next year I will graduate. I would love to be a social worker because I think I can help people, not because they are below me or anything. I want to dedicate my knowledge and my abilities to do everything I can for them. So, this is my dream job.
