It is part of the learning experience. It is rare for an undeclared major to get a job because employers seek and hire Co-ops who intend to pursue a path related to the need of the employer. It is possible to work after one semester at Georgia Tech, but many employers prefer students who have a good grade-point average after several semesters in school. There are more than 650 active employers of co-ops, but those hiring vary from one semester to another. A list of companies that are members of the Georgia Tech Cooperative Education family who have hired our students is available though.
Recruiters prefer applicants who have work experience.
Most Co-op graduates are offered higher starting salaries than their peers who do not have related experience. Contact the Co-op office early, get into a foreign language track, and prepare for a basic level of fluency prior to an international work assignment.
