Basically, what I'm looking for are companies that offer apprenticeships or internships that are
a) directly related to FIRST, or
b) are known to be more apt to hire FIRSTers, or
c) sponsor certain teams and let their members have internships/apprenticeships
or anything of this nature.
Thank you!

I've been mulling this idea over for quote awhile and I'm glad someone finally decided to run with it. It'd be a good idea to get a list of contact people who either are hiring managers or can forward them to hiring managers and are willing to give a bit of precidence to FIRST students. Finding a coop isn't an easy thing (although it's getting betters as the economy improves) and every little bit helps.
