Resume Critique Season

The A&S Career Services Office has been bustling these past few weeks. It seems everyone wants to get their resume critiqued as they look for summer opportunities, post-graduation jobs, and new jobs on campus. We have walk-in resume critique hours M-F:

Monday 10:00-10:45 am, 11:15-4:15 pm
Tuesday10:00-11:45 am, 12:30-2:15 pm, 3:30-4:15 pm
Wednesday 10:00 am-10:45 am, 11:15-4:15 pm
Thursday 10:00-10:45 am, 11:15-12 pm, 1:00-2:00 pm, 3:00-4:15 pm
Friday 10:00 am-10:45 am, 11:30-4:15 pm

We get pretty busy in the afternoons, especially Friday afternoons, so if you want to avoid a line, try to come by in the morning. Here's a little resume tip to whet your appetite: Start off bullet points with active verbs. Rather than writing, "Responsible for editing ...." write, "Edit..."

Of course, resume critiques aren't all that we offer. You can stop by to look at the opportunity listings and books in the Career Library at the back of our office or schedule an appointment with a career advisor to figure out what you want to do with your life and how you're going to do it.

Stop by--we'll be happy to see you.

  1. People should take advantage of these services available as your resumé is a reflection of yourself and you are trying to get yourself the best job possible.
