Calling all students in second, third and fourth year!
The CEOx1Day Program is looking for students with a strong academic placement who have demonstrated leadership on campus and in their communities and want to change the world. If this sounds like you, Career Services encourages you to apply to this program through its employer partner, Odgers Berndtson. The goal of this program is to support the leadership development of ambitious undergraduate students across Canada, providing career insights and networking opportunities with some of the country’s most impressive CEOs and their executive teams.
The benefits of this program include:

- Networking: Finalists will have the opportunity to network with participating CEOs and chief human resources officers (CHROs) from prestigious organizations, ambitious peers from top Canadian schools and Odgers Berndtson executive search and leadership development experts.
- Career management advice: Finalists will hear from current CEOs and CHROs about how they managed their careers, what challenges they overcame and what they are looking for in high potential talent.
- Internship opportunities: Finalists will have an opportunity to be considered by Odgers Berndtson for a summer internship or full-time placement after they have graduated.
For the 2025 program, the top 60 students will be selected as semi-finalists to participate in the regional Career Development Days (Ottawa’s is Wednesday, January 29, 2025). The top 30 students will be selected as finalists to participate in individual days of mentorship, shadowing their matched CEO.
