Meet Alex, a current second-year student in the Environment Faculty at the University of Waterloo. Passionate about sustainability, Alex often reflects on his experiences navigating the co-op application process. Having missed the chance to apply for a coveted position last cycle due to a scheduling conflict, he now eagerly engages with fellow students online, hoping to share insights and avoid common pitfalls. When he spotted the thread, he couldn't help but remind others of similar situations he had faced, all while juggling his studies and environmental advocacy initiatives.
