1.) What company have you co-oped with?
2.) What were some exciting assignments you worked on?
Being able to come up with and work on initiatives relating to high-value customers, departure times for flights, and misconnecting customers was really cool. I learned a lot about the airline industry, specifically the airport operations side, while still being able to hone and improve my technical skills.
3.) What was your favorite thing about the co-op?
Definitely the travel benefits and all the cool people I met there!
4.) What are your future plans and how did your co-op influence them?
After completing this co-op, I realized that I wanted to pursue a career that was more on the technical side. I pretty much exclusively applied to jobs that were technical and will start that job in a few months.
