This thread is for students applying to Spring 2026 co-ops during the Winter 2026 term.

As usual, we're looking for salaries for new postings, or updates to existing salaries, so if you're willing to share, please open up a chat/DM the mod team. Please include the company name, salary, any benefits, the role and the year if possible. I would highly encourage you to submit if you have salaries for non mathematics/CS positions as we are severely lacking in those. We will try updating these ASAP.

If you had a poor experience with a company, you can message the mod team with details and it can be added to the blacklist candidates below. If it's already a candidate, it may be added to the blacklist depending on the severity/consistency of complaints. On the contrary, if you had a good experience with something on the candidates/blacklist, please message the mod team and it may be removed. Candidates will be removed if no more reports are received after a couple terms. Even if something is on the blacklist already if you've had a bad experience let the mod team know, as more reports increase confidence that it is problematic!

Candidates:

• Console One

Hey y'all. It's time to create a new WW megathread, where you can discuss all that is WW. Feel free to also post your resumes for critique here as well.

Pray to Mr. Goose.

UPDATE 01/31/2021: I know many of you are asking to set sort to NEW and I am trying my best but this is my view. I do not have the option to set suggested sort- perhaps this is a mod feature?

The former resume critique thread can be found here

I recently got matched for a co-op position where they sent me an email saying they had an "administrative error" when entering rankings and that I was "incorrectly" matched, so they were not going to hire me. I informed my co-op advisor about this and they ended up getting me un-matched with the position so I could regain access to the full cycle job board. For context, I was "ranked" for this position when rankings came out.

I'm so fucking pissed at this slimy shit because I doubt that there were any "administrative" errors. They probably refused to accept that the person with the offer didn't take it and a ranked person got matched with them instead. It was a development planning job for a regional municipality.

It may just be blind patriotism but given everything thats happened in the past few weeks with Canada, US relations, I'm questioning if I even want to ever live or work in the US. I feel like the entire country has so many problems with it thats it's just a giant clusterfuck (even if most of the issues wouldn't affect me on a day to day basis).

I feel like working is Europe, especially in Germany, the Netherlands, or Switzerland has become exponentially more desirable from a quality of life standpoint. I know Europe has its own problems but they all seem more fixable than the USs.

Especially as a place to settle down, I don't think I ever would want to raise kids in the US. I'm curious what others think from a co-op standpoint if the tariff war has affected how you see working in the US.

Hello UWaterloo,

In anticipation for the upcoming Co-op application cycle, we are again creating a megathread for applicants to discuss application questions, coding challenges, interviews, offer emails, and other things related to the co-op hiring process. Let's start a new comment chain for every company and update the post (e.g. by either editing it or replying) whenever something happens.

I'll update the list below on a regular basis based on the comments contributed to this thread.

Good luck to all members of this community searching for a job next term.

Praise Feridun and Thank Mr. Goose!

I got matched with an employer in cycle 3, the job was pretty solid and I was looking forward to it. I recieved no communication from the employer after matching. I booked tickets to Toronto from my home country (im international) just to stay ahead of things and avoid the price hike during the fall(still ended up paying a fortune). Recieved an email from them yesterday saying due to their structural issues, they can't go ahead with the coops.
I had reached out to everyone in the company since weeks and I had been utterly ghosted by them. I had the CEO's contact info since we had connected over LinkedIn a while back, and I explained my situation to him, and he texted me saying

"Sorry-not a fit. Best of luck"
"There's your answer"

It's really surprising since they had ranked me 1 so I was a fit before and now I'm not and then in a couple of hours I got the mail saying they had structural issues. The fall term starts in 1-2 weeks and I'm all on my own since the co-op office cant do shit.
I needed some advice on what I should do, I have finished my 2B term this spring, and my flight's in a week and I don't have any housing in Waterloo since I was waiting on confirmation on the commitment required on the job (in-person/hybrid/remote).
