<p>I understand more schools are offering co-ops which is great since I have heard that a lot of students get offers from their companies they worked for. So for instance if you get a co-op in Conn. or Boston and they want to hire you but you don’t want to re-locate after graduation you still need to look for a job. Grant it, you will have that experience to put on his resume but if you get a co-op which is close to home and your school you are at an advantage if they co-op offers you a job you don’t have to make a decision to re-locate since its something he doesn’t want to do. That’s why I was curious if most of the co-ops are big companies that do have other offices in different parts of the east coast. Then he would want to expand his search. His major will be in engineering or science.</p>
