Gather a list of references, no more than 5 and no less than 3. These references should be people
who know your work and your character and will speak highly of you when asked. Matching your
references with past employers or professors is ideal. Then list them as below on a separate
page from your resume. Bring your reference page to your interviews, so that you’re prepared when
asked for them.

Do a careful reading and observation of
your web presence.
Ensure your public or social web space is
a positive reflection of you.
◦ What you think is cute and funny, may
be interpreted in a completely different
way by your audience.
Or…seriously consider removing any
personal social networking websites at
this time.
 Is the first question an interviewer asks in the
vast majority of times… Develop and memorize a
60 second infomercial. This is where you set the
tone for the interview.
 Make the next half hour a pleasant one for your
interviewer by smiling, and being confident and
enthusiastic.
 Tell STORIES about your academic, professional,
and personal background.
 Be unique and funny if you can.
 Be sure to ask intelligent, informed questions
of your interviewer. This shows you know their
company and you’re making an educated
decision to work for them.
 Some Sample Questions:
 Ask about a specific project you know the company is working on.
 What is the company’s biggest challenge at this time.
 Where would the company like to be in 5 years?
 Ask your interviewer about his position and work history with the
company.
 Ask about professional development opportunities
 Ask about advancement opportunities
 Finally – Don’t forget to send an immediate THANK
YOU letter. This is appreciated and expected!
 The single most important qualification on your
resume
 Invaluable experiential education for students
 Important recruiting tool for employers
 About 85% of Co-op students receive a full-time
job offer from the company they co-op for

 Identify 5 – 10 target companies
 Do your homework! Research the company
in order to determine what they’re doing
and how you’ll benefit them
 Practice that 60 second “infomercial”
 Let them SEE that you’re serious:
 Suit
