The process was initiated from my last university co-op term. There was opportunity to network to find a department expected to have hiring tickets on my graduation date. My first line manager facilitated introductions into the hiring department, but it was up to me to ask for help with searching. Around middle of my term, after I had demonstrated my work capability, I put the full-time question out in regular meetings. In a way, the interviewing really started with my co-op term. The actual interview with the hiring department was quite informal.
