Meeting With The Internship/Co-op Coordinator

The Coordinator will evaluate the student's resume and cover letter, and will discuss the student's career goals.  Together, they will work out an individual plan of action.  Also get suggestions for references, follow up phone calls, and interviewing.  Specific positions available will be discussed at this time.

Resume and Cover Letter

When searching for an Internship/ Co-op opportunity it is important to have an excellent resume and cover letter prepared!  Bring a typed copy of your resume and cover letter to a scheduled appointment with the Coordinator.  Learn how to individually "tailor" your resume and cover letter to match your skills and qualifications as they relate to each opportunity you apply for. View Resume Guidelines on the TWU Career Services web page if you need assistance in starting your resume.
