Another update:

The instructor just uploaded a list of possible placements online. We can either choose three from the list or find contacts ourselves (such as the possible leades that I posted earlier), but we can't do both. The first option (choosing from the big list) works kind of like formal recruitment and can be really, really competitive, since you can only interview with three organizations. If none of the organizations offer you a position, then the coordinator will contact people until you get something. The second organization relies on your own research, and is more relaxed.

Should I go for the competition or research and contact organizations on my own? I can't do both at the same time (basically, if I go for the more competitive option, the earlier leads would no longer work.)
