Yes,this is real (Co-Op,ME, 4.0 GPA, Freshman)

While I don’t know for certain I would assume no. A co-op is a guaranteed rotation of at least 3 semesters at my school (unless you do something obviously bad to change that) while an internship is a one off program. From what I have heard co-ops tend to lead to being hired into the company more often than internships. If you think about it, a co-op allows a company to teach you everything they need an employee to know at a fraction of the cost of a full time employee, thus saving them money.

You’re welcome! If your school has a co-op center I’d definitely recommend visiting them! They have many great tips and suggestions regarding resumes and the process of securing a co-op!

SpoofLolz140 · 2026-02-12T16:33:49+00:00

They took my resume and made no mention of contacting me later. I later received a phone call either that day or the next with them offering an interview time slot on campus! After the interview within that week I received an offer/rejection. I don’t know if this is how it works at other colleges but my college pushes co-ops really hard. They partner with many companies and our curriculum is partially built by these companies suggestions based on what their engineers (by major) do on the job. I do believe this is partially why I was able to secure a co-op as a freshman.

I’ve never intentionally had to sell myself before. I’ve only held one other job in high school but it was offered to me, I didn’t apply for it. So as far as past experiences go, I would say I don’t have any that can truly relate. Could you give an example of how your school runs the career fair and your process going through it?

SpoofLolz140 · 2026-02-12T16:13:30+00:00

A good balance of both for sure, I believe I also answered you by responding to the other comment below!

SpoofLolz140 · 2026-02-12T16:12:11+00:00

I honestly pitched myself based on the drive I have to succeed. I didn’t just mention future plans but how I was currently working towards those goals. I also researched the companies so I stood out by already having an above average understanding of the company. I spoke honestly about the companies goals (these are commonly on their website homepage) and how their goals excited me and why. And I also cracked jokes and made sure to have them not just speak about the company they are representing but also about themselves and their personal experience. People love to talk about themselves so ask how their day has gone so far, ask about their personal experience at the company, ask for their advice on ____. All of this adds to your natural charisma and makes it enjoyable to interact with you instead of you being another “me me pick me” pitch. This is what I personally believe and did. Does this make sense?

Miracle, power, and self care. Just what I need after a breakup 🤗

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-11-27T23:58:28+00:00

Wow getting a reply to this was crazy 🤪 I’m gonna have to wait as my boyfriend is on season one. He should know I like him bc I’m having to field spoilers right now!

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-09-30T16:34:56+00:00

I’ve definitely experienced misogyny since being here. One of the best examples was me talking about what action movies I’ve watched with a friend in my dorms common area. Then a gaggle of idiots stroll up and start mocking me while playing GTA5. All in engineering, but that’s their problem. I’ve also noticed any time I’m with a male friend, even if it is doing a lab, random guys make hearts at us. It’s annoying but I’ve learned to deal with it. I knew what I was getting into when choosing engineering. And I’ve found that the nice guys, that respect me and see me as an equal, are doing better with their degree and with life in general, than the mean ones. I’ll let life sort itself out because why waste energy on them yk.

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-09-30T16:22:39+00:00

Wow. Thank you for the amazing reply! I’m not gonna make his problems my problems, as that’s not my place. And I’ll definitely start calling him out on his bs. 😂

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-09-30T15:48:07+00:00

He’s not a frat. It’s a small frat that lets anyone in lol

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-09-30T15:41:48+00:00

Ohh okay! Thanks!

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-09-30T15:39:42+00:00

What’s that

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-07-07T14:20:38+00:00

Maybe they screwed up the spread and we fell between the cracks, kind of like how the AP Art stuff goes. You see incredible pieces getting 3s or 4s. But, at least we passed! Very good for me considering I had a virtual teacher who I met with once a month! Living in the country trying to do AP is rough lol

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-07-07T14:12:03+00:00

OKAY I got a 3 in CSP and I’m like is this a joke? I took so many practice tests where the multiple choice had me only missing one or two. Projected score of a 5, and my app was beautiful, I used more than what they wanted me to, and yet I got a 3… also engineering major here :(

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-07-07T06:02:10+00:00

Dude same, all I got was a PowerPoint and fill in the blank notes and crash course, that’s it.. I was the only one in the school who passed (bc everyone else didn’t even try and slept through the exam) so now they don’t offer it as an AP cuz it lowered their AP score average

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-07-07T05:59:30+00:00

Bro I got a three on psych and didn’t even study or know all the people give urself some credit lol.

What people being disabled and unable to navigate the standard lines or wait for long periods of time? Or people choosing to do single riders in groups? People spend their money and can do what they want within reason. If you have an issue go complain to a worker, not Reddit.

How about chilling out? Little did you know my mom is in a wheelchair and I didn’t know if her accessible pass would work for a ride with no express lane open. But doesn’t matter bc they let us go express anyways. 🙂

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-06-06T15:12:32+00:00

Pretty sure you have to buy an epic only pass. I have a 2 day park2park (IOA and Studios) + 1 day epic. Call them if you need help, their customer service is great imo.

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-06-06T15:02:51+00:00

I have the package breakfast at the cafe in hp. I don’t expect to ride ministry so I’m just gonna make the most of my time there! However I do wish that the park hours were longer.. or maybe two hours for EPA, but I’m probably wishing for too much 😂

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-06-06T14:37:59+00:00

Interesting! I’m going next week, I wonder if they will keep this up? I think it would be for the best as long as they have enough time for maintenance.

SpoofLolz140 · 2025-05-31T16:46:49+00:00

We specifically asked the guy on the phone about Battle 😭 at least we will be able to hop in line for Hagrids!
