Does everyone in the program find jobs?
Posted on Thursday, April 30th, 2015
Being accepted into the Co-op program does not guarantee a job. Co-op placement rates vary depending on economic stability and labour market trends. Co-op consultants are always working with employers to develop jobs.
For students to maximize their chances of finding employment they must:
- Apply to all jobs for which they qualify
- Undertake their own job search
- Take advantage of the resources available through the Co-op office such as resume and cover letter review and interview practice, etc.
- Be flexible and willing to try new things
