“At CUE I really got to know about what technologies are trending in Canada, especially in Edmonton and Calgary, and I was able to focus on that in school and then get a job really quickly. Students should just go for it; focus on the professor’s advice and start applying for jobs on the first day. There are lots of opportunities.”
