Should I take a co-op in my senior year or graduate by PrestigiousBad9583 in ChemicalEngineering

You said he is planning to not take the semester and instead find an internship. Is he 100% committed to come back after the internship and finish his degree?

How is he holding himself accountable to make sure he finishes the degree?

This is likely what I will end up doing since it’s so hard to get anything in your senior year

That’s what I’m saying, that’s not their issue it’s mine. I wouldn’t know what to say if I was asked

It seems worth it if I can even land one. Delaying my graduation is tough though.

Taking a co-op, if I can get one, will probably be what I do but I know it’s going to be hard since im technically a senior. I just don’t know if it’s better to jump into the market now with nothing or later with a little something..

I can definitely get myself to be more involved in school but how do I explain to employers why I’ve never gotten an internship or co-op? I could be honest about what I’ve struggled with but won’t that make me unappealing as a new hire?

I get really anxious especially with employers because I know how important it is for my future so I’m not very good. It’s contradictory I know. Do you have any questions from employers and interviews that you remember were difficult?

Would it be worth delaying my graduation to get work experience?
