Resume Review Is Underway!

May 19, 2016

You need to have a resume uploaded to Symplicity in order to participate in OCI!  Click through for information on how to get it nice and polished with the help of CP&P.

How can I submit my resume for review now, when I’m not sure exactly what I’ll be working on this summer?

Submit your resume for review by emailing CP&P with subject line “Resume Review” with a new entry reflecting the name of your summer employer, your title, and a brief description of the work you anticipate doing. You must upload a current version of your resume prior to bidding, which begins on June 6 for the Regional Interview Program and June 14 for OCI. You will surely be busy closer to that time researching employers, preparing your bid list, and otherwise engaging in preparation for your job search, which is why it is so important to take the time now to ensure that your resume is in the proper format and that everything other than the exact description of your summer position is in optimal condition. We frequently receive valuable feedback from employers about what makes a candidate’s resume stand out, and want to help you put your best foot forward. To have your resume reviewed, look at our guidelines online and email your document to CP&P in Microsoft Word format. Please note that you will have the opportunity to upload an updated version of your resume later in the summer (for example, if you become a member of a journal or work on a significant project that you wish to highlight). For your reference, the last day to update your resume in Symplicity for OCI will be July 25; the last day to update your resume in Symplicity for the Regional Interview Program will be July 13.
