Questions
How can I get help with my resume or cover letter?

At the Career Resource Center, we have career coaches who provide feedback on students’ resumes and cover letters. Coaches can also provide information to students who are having trouble getting started on these documents. It is important for students to be present while their coach reviews their documents so that coaches can ask questions about students’ experiences and goals in real-time.

I have a job/internship interview coming up. Can someone help me prepare?

Yes! The coaches in the Career Resource Center talk through potential interview questions with students and conduct mock interviews. Our students find this very helpful!
