We know the spring semester can be a busy time, especially with preparing resumes for practicum placements, summer internships, and post-grad jobs. (If you haven’t already, check out the career resources that are readily available here.)
To extend the support provided by our office, we’re excited to once again offer our Alumni Resume Review Program in collaboration with the Office of Alumni Relations.
📌 Program Overview
Through this program, you can schedule one (1) 30-minute resume review with a CSSW alum. This is a great opportunity to receive informal feedback and perspective on how to think about your experiences and present them in ways that reflect what is valued in the field.
📋 Details
-
- Sessions will be offered during lunch hours and early evenings (Eastern Time) between Thursday, January 15, and Friday, February 6. Additional flexible time options are also available.
- Requests must be submitted at least three (3) business days in advance of the session date. For example, to schedule a review session on January 15, your request must be submitted by January 12.
- Before scheduling, please ensure you are available at the selected time and do not have conflicting commitments, such as classes, advising meetings, or practicum‑related activities. Please note that we cannot guarantee that missed or late‑arriving sessions can be rescheduled.
NOTE: If you already have a resume review scheduled with our career center during this period (January 15 – February 6), we ask that you hold off on requesting an alumni resume review so that others may access support (i.e., please choose either a career center resume review or an alumni resume review, but not both).
We appreciate your understanding as we strive to support all students seeking guidance during this peak period.
Opportunities to connect with alumni will continue to be available when our Career Mentorship Program resumes in early February—details coming soon!
📝 How to Sign Up
Complete the Resume Review Request Form. Once your request is approved, the Office of Alumni Relations will connect you with your resume reviewer via email. Please respond promptly to the introduction, set up the Zoom meeting, and share your finalized resume draft in advance.
We hope you’ll take advantage of this special opportunity! Feel free to email us at [email protected] with any questions.
