Hey all,
I am in the process of applying for a few PhD programs for Clinical Psych. I am being interviewed for a job as a drug addictions counselor at the bachelor level, but would be taking a pay cut.
I'm curious whether having a mental health field job is necessary before acceptance, or if volunteering as a crisis counselor is just as valued for graduate programs.
Id prefer not to take a paycut if a job change is not necessary for my odds.
Thanks!
