A Note About Review Services.
Traditional review options are limited during break times and during the summer.
Resume/Cover Letter/LinkedIn Reviews can be reviewed during Coaching Appointments during this time.
Personal Statement reviews pause when classes are not in session. Turn-around times during the summer may be longer than usual. Please plan accordingly.
An appointment is also advised if you are just starting to write your documents and have many questions, or if you do not yet have a draft ready for review. Please see General Career Coaching to schedule an appointment if any of these situations apply to you!
