Job Responsibilities
I am an MBA student at this time, but previously, I was a social
worker for people with disabilities. After I was promoted, it
was my responsibility to run a Medicaid Waiver program for
children with disabilities. I spent about 50% of my time
meeting with clients and the rest of the time filling out
government paperwork, setting up educational and therapy
programs for my clients.
