I have decided that being programs coordinator at a retirement home is the perfect job for me. Is there a degree you have to have or is it just experience-based? Thanks!

I like the program coordinator of my college program and since he is not one of my teachers it would not be breaking college policy if I did start a relationship with him(I checked) because he is not one of my teachers just the coordinator of the program. I was wondering if it is right to try to start a relationship or if its just a college crush

I am interested in working at a playground this summer as a supervisor and program coordinator, and before my interview for the job one of the questions I have to look into answering is how I would handle this type of situation. I am not sure what the most appropriate, safe way to respond to a stranger speaking to one of the children would be. Assuming they just walked up and started a conversation with the kid, and I have no knowledge of their relationship, what would be my most appropriate response that would be safe for both the child and myself?

I've had a couple of jobs, but most are not good enough for what I am applying for. One job I put on my resume is Sales Associate at the Gap. I had one volunteer experience and I go to an art college. The job I applied for is a "Marketing and Summer Program Coordinator". Is that a good jump?

I just began a job as a Programming Coordinator for a small tv network and I currently make monthly schedules using excel. The problem is I make various schedules for various timezones, which means I have to go back and adjust the times either an hour ahead or behind according to the time zone and that takes forever. Everytime I make a new schedule it feels like I'm reinventing the wheel. Is there any type of software out there that can aid me in making a monthly schedule (maybe some sort of template), and it's able to adjust the times as needed according to time zones? I've tried Filmaker but no luck at all. Thanks!

So let's say someone is a nursing professor at an avarage community college, for about the past 20-something years. They are also the "program coordinator". They are not their own boss though. About how much do they make a year? 60,000? 70,000? More? Less? Low-income? High- Income? How much!!!

Well, I am in my early 20s and promoted to be an office manager. I have to work with senior accountants, finance officers, and program coordinators who are much older than me (40-60 years old). Some people can see my ability to manage this office because they saw how hard I have worked to accomplish organizational goals. However, some people think I am just too young and don't deserve the position yet. Please advice. Thank you :)

I will be done with my bachelors in SW in September and looking to get a masters in psychology. What kind of jobs are available for this combination of degrees? I have been looking at grad schools for social work, but most need a min of 3.0 GPA and I have a 2.5 with 9 credit hours left so I know I won't make the 3.0 cut. Plus, I DO NOT want to take the GRE, I am terrible at tests and have major anxiety so I am trying to avoid that at all costs. I have also heard a masters in psych is completely pointless.
