Coop Job Applications

So far this semester I have been very busy applying to jobs for coop, which I plan to start this summer. Mainly I have been busy writing my resume and cover letters, and having these revised multiple times by the friendly coop coordinators at SFU. I just completed and submitted my applications to RIM, EA, and DemonWare a few days ago, and plan to apply for Amazon, Google, and Apple next week.

The application for RIM was particularly challenging, because not only did I need to submit my application through the SFU website, I also had to fill out an application on the RIM website. This was a very involved task. I was required to set up an account, fill out a very detailed profile about my education, interests, skills, etc., and once that was finished, I had to fill out all the information a second time when applying to the specific job of interest.

I hope that the next few applications won't be as involved as the one for RIM. Soon I will be doing interviews as well, so things will continue to be busy for me for a while, but I hope that once it's all over I will have more time for blogging.
