Platform fit
Built around the actual co-op workflow, not generic recruiting software.
The experience should feel clear and operational from the first screen. That means stronger hierarchy, cleaner calls to action, and obvious workflow credibility before someone ever signs in.
Cycle rules, approvals, and reporting in one operational layer
Structured employer onboarding and job posting flow
Student readiness and placement progress in one workspace
Faculty follow-through stays connected after hiring decisions
Operational promise
Clear next steps for every stakeholder.
Same product vibe as the dashboard: rounded surfaces, bold hierarchy, and strong action cues. Different page purpose.
Role clarity
Different workflows, one consistent product language.
The vibe should carry across the app: rounded cards, strong type, focused actions, and a calm sense of order.
Students
Know what is approved, blocked, and ready next.
Profiles, eligibility, applications, placements, and academic follow-through stay in one understandable flow.
Employers
Move from onboarding to placement without fragmented handoffs.
Hiring partners can onboard, create roles, review candidates, and confirm placements through one structured workflow.
Co-op teams
Run the program from one operational control layer.
Cycles, approvals, oversight, and reporting stay governed inside the platform instead of being split across tools.
How it works
One connected system from cycle setup to placement outcomes.
This section explains the operational sequence clearly instead of mimicking the dashboard screen.
Set the cycle
Define timelines, approval gates, and eligibility policy once for the term.
Prepare participants
Students complete profiles, employers onboard, and staff approve readiness before applications open.
Run placements
Applications, selections, placements, and evaluations follow one visible operational path.
