Officially matched by you

Most of you are probably not familiar with the Waterloo Co-Op process. I'll give you a crash course in Co-Op 101.


  1. Submit resumes: you can apply to up to 24 jobs

  2. Sit through interviews (if you get any). Getting an interview is tricky because you are competing against 100s of resumes and there are usually less than 10 resumes picked for interviews.

  3. After interview period, you find out what the employers thought about you. They rank you.

  4. You rank them

  5. A computer analyzes everyone's rankings and spits out a match



So I was matched with Amazon.com. Duh, we mutually ranked each other numba 1.

Wonder Woman is the Amazon princess. So she will be my spokesperson for the summer.
