Advantages of a Co-op

Get An Edge Over Your Peers

Unlike internships, which are typically 8-10 weeks and unpaid, co-ops provide you with one year of paid, in-depth work experience in your field.

Co-ops are a three semester commitment. While you do maintain your full-time student status, you may not take classes during your co-op. One big advantage is when students complete their co-op, they will receive a year of work experience on their transcript.

R.E. Mason also provides you with a unique opportunity to gain exposure to other companies within the industries we serve to learn what other plants are like.

My co-op experience with R.E. Mason was invaluable in my education and development as a young professional. I was given a lot of responsibility as a co-op but this allowed me to take great pride in the work I was doing. The open door policy and collaborative environment make it easy to seek out advice from other associates when you need it. They make you feel valued as a member of the team. I would definitely recommend R.E. Mason to those seeking a co-op position which will be both challenging and rewarding.

Before my co-op at R.E. Mason, I wasn’t sure what my post graduation career would look like. My time as a co-op allowed me to gain insight into the professional world, and explore my passions. The people at R.E. Mason truly care about helping you succeed and finding your strengths. I am so thankful for everyone who allowed me to feel like I was a useful asset to the team and company.
