Dear RFD members,
I am having a lot going on my mind right now, since I don't have any co-op experience. The main reason behind this is the fact that ONE of my course mark did not meet the requirement for Intership, so I decided to skip internship, because I would need to waste half a year to retake that course, and then another year for internship work term. My GPA isn't that great (maybe a "B-").
My question to my fellow RFD members is, will I be able to land a job in the accounting field after I graduate WITHOUT the Co-op experience? I am from York University, and my friend who is also doing accounting at UTSC did not make it to the Management COOP program, so now he's in non-coop. After researching, many other universities also have NON-COOP accounting programs. Will these students be able to land themselves a job without the experience?
Right now, I've currently have some bookkeeping experience at a Law Firm during the summer, but that was self-found summer internship, and I do not know if that would help much compared to an official university internship.
