    Just wondering how co-op interviews go, what to expect, type of questions etc.?

    Have one tomorrow and it's hard not to be very anxious, especially as it's my first ever interview.

    Do some research on the company, so if they've a website look it up and see what they do. If any info on the role you're being interviewed for is available have a good look at it.

    Read over your CV so you know it yourself.

    Think back through the subjects you've done and think which ones you liked and why.

    Edit: It's pretty normal to be anxious before an interview. I've done a fair few at this stage, both successful and unsuccessful, and I'd still get a bit worked up.

    The interviewers will know that you're a college student so won't be expecting you to know everything about everything.
