Dont work here. actively not hiring for posted job listings
Cons
This company is clearly not hiring for this role or other coop program listings. I've been searching for a coop and this role was one of the first I applied for. This listing has been re posted several times of the past 4 months with no one ever being hired. This company should be avoided. If they have job listings they are not actually hiring for what does that tell you about how they will treat you if you actually worked there
