I have my co-op interview this Friday. I'm kind of nervous but the advice posted here was very helpful.
Let us know how your interview goes!

I just had my interview and everything that was discussed here was pretty much what was asked. She did, however, ask me what I would do if I didn't get accepted into co-op which makes me a little nervous. Is this a typical question?

You are *not* a troll. You are more akin to a punching bag, or a joke that everyone's tired of but keeps hearing.
Good luck for Coop everyone! |

I had my coop interview today with Michelle Benjamin and another Professor for Molecular Biology and Genetics. Does anyone know the name of the Professor at the interview? I was introduced to him but was too nervous and didn't remember his name. I'm thinking it is either Dr. Andre Bedard or Dr. Roger Jacobs.
Thanks in advance!

@ Mingy: I had the interview for Mol Bio today as well. I was only interviewed by Michelle Benjamin, no other profs were there. If I could help you out I would, lol
I was asked the exact same questions that djRAIN listed, plus "What are your plans for the summer" (she jotted down some of the work positions I've applied to and asked if I'd followed up with the employers) and "If you had to relocate for a job, where would you ideally move"
Good luck to those who still have their interview

You're so lucky! I walked in there and was so surprised to see another person in the room. Thanks for taking the time to respond to my post marcie! =) |

Maybe you can tell through the pictures ?
Here's Dr. Bedard: http://www.biology.mcmaster. ca/fac...ard/bedard.htm
Dr Jacobs: http://www.biology.mcmaster. ca/fac...obs/jacobs.htm
unless it's neither..?

According to what I know in psychology, I think I'm more likely not to remember the name Dr. Andre Bedard than Dr. Roger Jacobs because Roger and Jacobs are quite common names. Thanks for your help Sara! |

Bedard doesn't look like that anymore, he's got his hair cut. Did he talk with a French accent? |

No problem! Now you're making me wish I took psych this year  . Ohh, or maybe it was Dr. Finan, since he's the head of Mol Bio & Genetics (Co-op)..?
PS- Out of curiosity, did you live in Moulton last year?

I noticed that some people were interviewed by a professor(s) and Michelle Benjamin, and others were interviewed just by Michelle, like myself. I was wondering if this meant anything? I was interviewed for Mol Bio last week and my interview literally lasted 5-7 minutes...and I don't know what to make of it. Is this a disadvantage in anyway to only be interviewed by Michelle?
I've been mulling over this for the past couple of days and would really like to know if anyone from any co-op program was interviewed just by Michelle and got accepted into co-op.
Any help would be appreciated...and possibly ease my worrying!

I don't think it's anything to worry about. I had my interview near 2 ish so maybe he just had time and wanted to drop by on some applicants.
