The Big Hunt for Coop
Finally, I’m a third year. There’s no more looking down, just looking up. I remember as a freshmen, I went to my first Career Fair here at the Rochester Institute of Technology wearing jeans and a baggy white 1990’s shirt with blue stripes surfing down. That was one awkward day. After checking in (and getting couple of strange looks from the staff for being under-dressed), I made my way down to the field house where over a hundred companies gathered. I didn’t know where to start. While entering area that feld like the bazaars* from back home I grabbed a set of maps. Using it I made my schedule to visit few companies. First was of course Gleason Works, a manufacturing company that I have been eyeing for a while. Followed by Toyota, Fisher Price, Atlantic Testing Lab, and few more. While going around and speaking to the representatives, I was also hoping to get an interview. However, I had no luck and left the fair within 2 hour period.
