Technically this could be considered unsuccessful due to the outcome, but building up to it, the experience was a complete gold medal. Through my cousin, I had met a few PR representatives in Zurich, Switzerland and we were discussing me co-oping over there for this current co-op. It ended poorly due to the financial standings of the company since they were going through a complete internal renovation of staff. The point of this networking experience was that I reached out to my cousin and used her as a source to help me circulate my resume around a few different companies in Switzerland. The final company, which we had been talking to for a few months before the fall-out, has promised to keep my resume as well as keep in contact in case something comes up in the future. So in the end, it wasn't a total bomb of a networking opportunity.
