By Sharla Hooper
Comprehensive hub features free templates developed by experienced career advisor professionals
°®¶¹“«Ć½ has launched a job resources and tools hub on its website, building on its Career Services for LifeĀ® commitment by offering job seekers and job applicants in-depth guides, examples, and templates in sections dedicated to resumes and curriculum vitaes (CVs), cover letters, personal branding guidance, interviewing, and frequently asked questions.
In a year being shaped by the Great Resignation, the °®¶¹“«Ć½ Career Instituteā¢ 2022 Career Optimism IndexĀ® comprehensive study assessing the state of Americansā career trajectories found that nearly 1 in 3 Americans say they would quit their current jobs without having another job lined up. Active students and graduates of the °®¶¹“«Ć½ seeking to pursue their career goals can now access these job resources to support their path forward.
āWe built the job resources page because our career advisors saw a need for our students and alumni to have models of resumes that helped their qualifications be more immediately visible to recruiters and job applicant systems,ā states Jessica Roper, director of Career Services. āOur career advisors took a hands-on approach to creating the examples and templates.ā
Developed by career advisors, the job resources and tools hub content offers detailed guidance based on possible scenarios including career changer, experienced grad, returner, and new grad. The hub provides a self-service suite of resources with templates to download and fill out, example resumes, CVs, and cover letters to model, plus step-by-step guides to support through the job application process. In keeping with the Universityās commitment to ensuring equal access to information for all, the job resources and tools hub includes accessibility features such as properly tagged PDFs and alt text for images.
