Human life has two forms. The first one is the successful management of private, professional life, the second one is in certain moments inability to harmonize their states and processes with the environment. Here we can see the effect of the social worker and his client. Client - an individual who at some point cannot understand the meaning of his own actions, gets into situations that seem to be so difficult to manage and he is not able even think about possible strategies for solutions. Social worker - a person who has such a wide range of options to address the adverse situations that at one point he is capable to offer and apply several solutions. The social worker is, therefore a person who has theoretical knowledge and social skills, knows how to react and propose a solution. Career opportunities in practice are wide and necessary due to the increasing number of socio-pathological phenomena, problems and vulnerable groups. Social skills are trainable. It is, therefore necessary to appeal to the development of these skills, which influence the future direction of personality and career opportunities in the field of social work.
