Click the link above, fill out the demographic information and attach your document at the end.
What type of file can I upload?
Career Services can only accept Word documents and PDFs.
When should I expect my feedback?
Career Services asks for 3-5 business days to ensure quality feedback. Please note that this service is not available during times the university is closed (Winter Break, snow days, etc.). Any items uploaded during the time UNO is closed will be reviewed when the university reopens.
How will I receive my feedback on my résumé/cover letter?
A Career Services staff member will email you back your résumé/cover letter to your designated email. All feedback will be provided as comments on the document. You are responsible for making edits.
Is there a limit to how many times I can use the résumé tool?
Nope! You can upload your resume/cover letter as many times as you would like.
If I upload my résumé over the weekend, will I get feedback by Monday?
No, you will not. If a résumé/cover letter is submitted late Friday or over the weekend, a staff member will not be able to begin the review process till Monday. This would mean you would receive feedback 3-5 business days from that Monday.
I need immediate feedback; can you make an exception to the 3-5 day rule?
No. If you need immediate or more timely feedback on your résumé please use schedule an appointment via Handshake.
