      Pros

      I loved working with people from all over the world, and refugee resettlement is obviously very rewarding work--helping people who have experienced unimaginable suffering to start a new life. If you are looking for a rich, cultural experience and fulfilling work helping people, you will likely find IRC an exciting, enjoyable place to work. I have a masters in social work, and the work at IRC fit well with my values. Most clients--though they don't have much by our standards when they arrive--are so thankful to be starting a new life here where they can feel safe and have their physical needs met. They trust you immediately to help them get on their feet here in the U.S., and it's very inspiring to watch them adapt. Working with refugees is a constant reminder that we are so blessed to live here.

      Cons

      In social services, you typically have limited resources and high turnover. That is the case with IRC as well. You want to be able to help each client more, but the amount of resources for each refugee family is allocated by the government. That can be frustrating.
