Meruelo Family Center for Career Development
 

Hey Andres!

Winter is settling in, and the semester is wrapping up. And with finals approaching, December is a mix of studying and looking ahead to what’s next. Even when everything is covered in snow, career growth doesn’t have to freeze.

OUR CHALLENGE FOR YOU IN THIS NEWSLETTER IS TO… 

Revise one aspect of your resume and make it stronger.

  • Improve clarity
  • Quantify an accomplishment (if you can) 
  • Replace generic verbs with role-specific and application action verbs.

Many employers use an Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) in consolidating applicants. Tailor your resume to the role by reading the job description and noting what transferable skills they list that you can highlight in your resume. 

To learn more check out our website with all formation about action verbs to ATS Systems. 

And as always. Win the week!

Blessings, 

Andres Perez
