    I was just wondering about the options that the co-op office give you for the co-op. Would the majority of them be work positions in Ireland or what? I've not sorted my own work so I'm really curious. Any information at all would be really helpful. Thanks

    Unless you specify otherwise the coop office will look for places within Ireland only.

    If you ask to be placed abroad, your details will be passed over to the international coop office who will then look for a placement. You must specify which country you wish to be placed in. There is a deadline for choosing whether you want to stay in Ireland or go abroad.

    If you want to sort out your own coop placement there is an 'official' deadline for which you must tell them of your placement but it is usually very early to be asking someone for confirmation so if you missed that deadline they usually don't mind as getting a placement is all that matters. Although you would want it sorted before they start scheduling interviews for you, which starts in week 1 of the preceding semester.

    And of course, a completed UL CV precedes all of this. I'm not sure what stage of the process you are at so some of this information might be redundant.
