How people ask for it

2 examples written by Taskly from what people search for in Canada. Real tasks look like these.

  • “Plan to get an internship with a low GPA in computer science”

    I need a realistic plan for how to get an internship with a low GPA. I'm in third year of computer science at a university in Toronto with a 2.7 cumulative GPA after a rough second year. My grades this year are better, but many postings ask for a 3.0.

    I'm not in a co-op stream, so I'm applying on my own for summer roles. I have two decent projects, a React app and a Python scraper, and I help run my school's hackathon club.

    For: Third-year computer science student in Canada with a low GPA

    Example task, written by Taskly. Yours can be one line; your Tasker will ask what they need.
  • “Help me decide between an internship vs co-op in my BBA”

    I'd like a session to weigh an internship vs co-op before I choose my stream. I'm in first year of a BBA at a university in Ottawa, and by the end of winter term I have to decide whether to join the co-op program, which adds fees and pushes my graduation back by about eight months.

    My parents think co-op is the safe choice. Some upper-year students say they found summer internships on their own and graduated on time. I want to work in marketing or brand roles later, and I don't know how much co-op terms matter for that path.

Good questions

What people ask before they post this in Canada.

  • 01

    How much does internship and campus-placement prep cost in Canada?

    Usually C$50–250. Each Tasker names their own price in their offer, so you see the cost before you agree to anything.

  • 02

    Should I put a low GPA on my resume?

    If a posting doesn't ask for it, many students leave it off and lead with projects and experience. If your recent term GPA is stronger, some list that instead, labelled clearly.

  • 03

    Which companies care less about GPA for internships?

    Startups and smaller companies often focus more on projects and skills than grades. Referrals also help, since they put your application in front of a person rather than an automatic filter.

  • 04

    What should I compare between co-op and internships?

    Extra fees, the delay to graduation, how many paid work terms you get, how much help the school gives with applications, and how often employers in your target field hire from co-op.

  • 05

    Can I switch out of co-op later?

    Many Canadian universities let students leave a co-op stream, but the rules and deadlines differ. Check your program's co-op office policy before you decide, so you know your options.

  • 06

    How does paying work?

    Posting is free. When you accept an offer you pay the agreed price. Your money is held by Taskly until you confirm the task is done. If you don’t, it’s released three days after your Tasker marks it finished — unless you report a problem.

  • 07

    Who are the Taskers?

    People who have done what you need: worked at the company, passed the exam, made the move. Every Tasker is reviewed and approved by a person before they work.
