LaSalle College has one of the clearer placement support models among career-focused colleges. It does not promise a formal placement year for every student, but it does provide practical help with internships and job search support.

How Placement Usually Works

Placement and work experience can appear in several ways:

Route	What it usually means
Internship search support	Help finding relevant short-term professional experience
Job search support	Help finding part-time or graduate roles
Portfolio-based recruitment	Employers can recruit from student profiles
Program-specific work experience	Some programs may include more direct professional exposure

Students should always check the specific program, because placement opportunities vary across schools and diplomas.

Career Services Support

The college's Career Services team helps students with:

• Resume writing
• Cover letters
• Interview coaching
• Job search strategy
• Internship preparation
• Job offer access

That support is important for students who want to turn study into work rather than treating the two as separate stages.

Why Montréal Helps

Montréal is a strong city for student work and internships because it has a dense mix of businesses, creative firms, hospitality employers and service roles. Students at LaSalle therefore benefit from a large local market when they start searching for experience.

What Students Should Ask Before Enrolling

Before enrolling, students should ask:

• Does my program include an internship or work-integrated component?
• What career support is available for my field?
• Is the program eligible for PGWP?
• How does the Portfolios platform work?
• Are internship opportunities available in English, French or both?

Best Advice For September 2026 Students

Students starting in September 2026 should start thinking about placement before classes begin. If they build a strong CV, a basic professional profile and a portfolio early, they are much more likely to make use of the college's support services.
