Recruiting and Work Term Dates

For your convenience, we have compiled a listing of recruiting and work term dates to help you navigate your co-op experience at Laurier. Further detailed information can be found in the co-op events calendar on Navigator. Note: Recruiting dates are subject to change.

Winter 2026 Work Term; January 2 through April 24, 2026

We have now completed recruiting for the Winter 2026 work term.

Spring 2026 Work Term; May 4 through August 28, 2026

Primary Recruiting Period

We have now concluded our primary recruiting period for spring.

Continuous Recruiting Period

  • We will begin posting jobs for the continuous recruiting period on Friday, January 30, 2026.
  • If you are still seeking work for the spring, you will begin applying to job postings again.
  • Please complete the Student Contact and Interview Conflict Form for the continous recruiting period by Sunday, February 1, at 11:59 p.m..
  • During the continuous recruiting period, employers may contact you directly to arrange interviews and offer jobs. Please send details of your interviews to your coordinator, so we don't schedule you for other interviews at the same time.
  • We will post jobs for the continuous recruiting period until all co-op students have secured employment for the spring.
  • If you receive an offer from an employer, please let your coordinator know so we can notify other employers considering you.

Personal Job Search

  • You may conduct a personal job search any time.
  • Interviews we schedule take precedence over interviews through your personal job search, so please avoid scheduling interviews from January 21 through 27.
  • Before accepting a job you find on your own, you must send details of the offer to your co-op coordinator so we can decide whether to approve the job for co-op.
  • You may not accept a job offer through your personal job search between the deadline for submitting your intention form, 10 a.m. on January 16, and the time we announce the results of the ranking and matching process, on January 30.
