Opt in to a Resume Book
Submit your resume to a Resume Book to gain visibility and get your profile in front of employers from a variety of industries. Resume books are designed to help students connect with employers who are actively hiring and it’s another way to get in front of employers, plus submitting is easy! You choose the industry/ies you’re interested in, choose the correct level (e.g. internships or full-time jobs), and we’ll market them to our employers!
Submitting is easy – just follow the steps below.
- Update your resume. Review the information on our website which includes writing resources, samples, and a link to a resume workshop. Also consider setting up a time to meet with one of our talented career counselors or peer advisors!
- Review the books available through this link (the books are managed through ‘jobs’ in Handshake). We are offering books covering 11 different career field interests, with 1 book focused on internship-seekers, and one book focused on fulltime job-seekers for each career field. *You can also do a filtered search in Handshake jobs by typing Resume Book in the search field.
- “Apply” to the resume book(s) that match your career interests.
- *Note: please only submit to the book(s) that match your interests and your desired type of opportunity (e.g. if you’re a sophomore, you shouldn’t be applying to the full-time books)
Employers will begin requesting books for purchase on September 1 for the Fall semester and February 1 for Spring semester, so while you can ‘apply’ to any book through October 31 for Fall semester and February 29 for Spring semester, you’ll have the best chance for exposure if you submit your resume by the early deadline.
