Given the nature of the ever-changing job market and the state of the world, searching for a job is a different experience for everyone. Whether it’s a change or development in an industry’s practices or a literal global pandemic, a myriad of variables can change what the job search process looks like every couple of months. The process is even more varied for co-op programs: you’re a student, you’re looking for entry-level positions most of the time, and you’re consistently trying to apply for jobs while also taking courses and staying involved in school. For some Psychology students, it isn’t hard to find the job they want. And that’s great for them! With Experience Guelph and/or their personal networks as resources, some students are more than confident in their abilities to find the best suited role for them. But for others, like me, job searching was a strenuous and time-consuming activity. I don’t think it had to be – in fact, if I knew a couple insider tricks before I started, I might’ve been less hard on myself during the whole process.

Hi everyone! My name is Nida and I’m the Marketing Coordinator on the Psychology Society. As well, I’m a Psychology Co-op student! What that means is that during three of my terms, I am working a full-time job, and applying what I’ve learned in my Psychology courses into the real, professional world. I’m excited to be able to share my experiences and hopefully give you more insight into the co-op world. |
