Craft Your Resume & Cover Letter
As a Spider, you have a lot to offer the world: valuable experiences, perspectives, and skills. Resumes and cover letters are important documents that you’ll create to showcase how you can contribute to your next opportunity. These documents are not as complex as UR projects or term papers, but they do include important conventions that your readers are expecting to see. Good news! With a bit of preparation, you can decode these norms and produce high-quality materials to garner the attention you deserve.
Our advisors can help you create authentic materials that highlight your unique accomplishments. They’ll guide you on how to tailor your documents based on the job description, keywords to use to help you stand out, and how to format your resume to get through applicant tracking systems. This area of our virtual career center also includes powerful resources including YoUR step-by-step resume and cover letter guides, as well as tools like vMock that can accelerate your progress with our team. If you’re not already overwhelmed with all this good news (!), you can also check out helpful prompts that we made just for you in YoUR Spider prompt library.
