Business Career Development Centre

“Taking part in case competitions is extremely valuable because they allow students like me to expand our learning outside of a standardized academic context and build on our “real life” skills. I am grateful for the opportunity we were given!” 

-Koml, Marketing Management

“I was struggling to secure interviews for my upcoming Fall co-op term when my co-op coordinator recommended the Business Career Development Centre. I booked a meeting with Nicole to review my resume, and her guidance gave me the confidence to continue applying. I also scheduled a follow-up session to refine my cover letter. With Nicole's support, I landed an interview, and she helped me prepare thoroughly, providing both practical advice and moral support. As a result, I received an offer on the same day as my interview. I highly appreciate this valuable resource and recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their job applications!”

-Akshat, Real Estate Co-op

“In my last few years at Lang, I started thinking about the importance of my summer internships and what would be the best way to start my career. Thankfully, I discovered that the Career Centre offers career advisors. With the help of Nicole, I was able to figure out the best way to leverage my network and optimize my resume and cover letter. I also was able to refine my potential career options, which enabled me to network more efficiently. I'm not sure I would have been able to do this if I didn't have the help of Nicole and the Business Career Development Centre.” 

-Guillermo, Management Economics & Finance

“I am a fourth-year accounting co-op student that used the BCDC in second year for my first co-op. Nicole and Kate took the time to help me with all elements of my application (my resume, cover letter, LinkedIn profile, and interview skills) which helped me land a co-op at a big 4 firm. I know this would not have been possible without booking an appointment with Kate and Nicole, so I highly suggest Lang students take advantage of the resources BCDC has to offer!” 

-Mikaela, Accounting Co-op

“I was blessed to receive a phone call saying that out of the hundreds of candidates that applied, I was selected! As you can expect I am excited beyond measure, and I can’t even put into words how grateful I am…for the guidance, advice, connections, and time that you took to meet with me and help me get to where I am today. While it may have been a brief conversation, I feel obligated to express that I truly don’t think I would be in the position I am in without your assistance. I am now preparing to embark on a role that I could only dream of acquiring. I cannot express enough how grateful I am.”

-Stephen, Leadership & Organizational Management, Undergraduate Student

“It’s my immense pleasure to share that I got an official offer and accepted it - I can’t express my happiness at this moment, no words… thank you so much, it’s all because of your direction and guidance!!” 

– PJ, Accounting Co-op

“Attending the DeGroote conference using funding truly created one of the most memorable experiences with friends in my 4 years at Guelph. The learning experience from the workshop and case competition was endless, but participating with my peers made it one of a kind.” 

-Sameer, Management Economics & Finance

“The conference was extremely insightful in providing me with the skills and experiences necessary for me to be a better leader. I was able to network with likeminded students and industry professionals whilst also having the ability to hear from great keynote speakers. The funding from BCDC gave me the ability to attend, learn, and grow without having to worry about the financial burden of such a conference.”
