Resume and Cover Letter Reviews

On hiatus starting on May 7. Resumes on August 25, 2025.

2:00 p.m. – 4:15 p.m., Mon. – Fri.

For LinkedIn profile reviews and CV (curriculum vitae) reviews, please come to Career Drop-In Advising or make a career coaching appointment.

What is an Online Resume/Cover Letter Review?

You will submit a draft of your resume or cover letter online. An undergraduate Career Services Paraprofessional spends 10-15 minutes reading your resume or cover letter and provides written feedback on changes and improvements that could make your document stronger and help you stand out when you apply to internships, jobs, or graduate schools. You will receive this feedback in approximately 3-5 business days.

Please read submission instructions prior to sending your file to avoid unnecessary delays.

This service is primarily targeted to undergraduates and entry-level positions. If you are a masters or doctoral student, you may be directed to the following services: Career Drop-in Advising, a career coaching appointment, or the Graduate College's Career Development office.

What if I can't wait 3-5 business days?

If you need feedback right away, you might want to consider our Resume/Cover Letter Drop-in Service instead. See that page for more details. Here's more information about what we consider a "business day:"

A business day is Monday - Friday, 8:30 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., when the University offices are open (excluding holidays). Any document submitted after 5:00 P.M. will be considered the next business day.

The service will only be available when class is in session. If class is not in session, it is not considered a business day for this service.
