Hiring Trent Students
For Employers
Careerspace facilitates meaningful and valuable experiences between motivated students and organizations.
Trent Advantage
Consistently recognized nationally for leadership in teaching, research and student satisfaction, Trent attracts excellent students from across the country and around the world.
Here, undergraduate and graduate students connect and collaborate with faculty, staff and their peers through diverse communities that span residential colleges, classrooms, disciplines, hands-on research, co-curricular and community-based activities.
Across all disciplines, Trent brings critical, integrative thinking to life every day. Trent's unique approach to personal development through supportive, collaborative community engagement is in more demand than ever. Students lead the way by co-creating experiences rooted in dialogue, diverse perspectives and collaboration.
The Student Work Placement Program is a wage subsidy program that gives post-secondary students from across Canada opportunities to engage in experiential learning through paid work experience, regardless of their discipline. The program is funded through Employment and Social Development Canada who work with Employer Delivery Partners, a group of recognized associations and organizations representing the interest of employers in particular industries, to provide student work placements and wage subsidies of up to $7,500.
