Make a difference with us

We’re looking for motivated and engaged students who want to contribute to our organization and make a difference. Aside from the technical skills and knowledge required for a position, we’re looking for students who have strong communication and teamwork skills, well as an ability to learn and take initiative.

We typically hire students for a range of roles in:

  • IT
  • Analytics
  • Finance
  • Business
  • Marketing
  • Accounting
  • Communications
  • Review and appeal

How we hire

We hire year-round and start recruiting for a position during the term before the work term is scheduled to start. For example, we’ll recruit from January to April for a summer position. We follow the co-op program schedule with positions lasting either four or eight months and hire graduate and undergraduate students.
