The Career Center Can Help!
The Campus Rec Career Stop Online offers links to resources on a variety of career resources, including:
The Career Center serves students from all majors, at all levels (freshmen - alumni). Trained career assistants provide drop-in services to assist students with developing resumes and cover letters. The drop-in service does not require an appointment. Simply show up with a résumé or cover letter in hand and sign up for a 10-15 minute session with a trained student Reviewer. In order to assist you in creating an interesting and attractive document, Reviewers engage you in a discussion about your job history and the types of jobs you will be applying for using your résumé or cover letter.
Reviewers assist you in tweaking the language and overall appearance of the résumé, but they do not check for errors in grammar or spelling. For those services, you should schedule an appointment at The Writers’ Workshop.
