Any social workers around here or have friends who are working as social workers? Can share any experience? And what is the average pay like?

Not wise. Social workers earn less than nurses. After getting your diploma, you should start work in a hospital, and then upgrade to become a therapist, research assistant or some other specialised clinical job. Good luck.
