Hootsuite is a big believer in the co-op program. With around 15 co-ops per semester (50% from UBC) we see the value in growing and providing real-world work opportunities to the next generation of local talent. All our co-ops are eager to learn, and contribute not just to our technical roadmap, but are also big contributors to our culture. Seeing co-op experience on a resume shows me that a candidate is ready for the workforce, and it’s always a pleasure seeing a co-op return in a full-time role once their studies are finished.
