Digital Resume & Cover Letter Review
Interested in having your resume and/or cover letter reviewed by a Career Services staffer? Submit your professional document(s) below to receive personalized feedback through our Digital Resume and Cover Letter Review service.
Current Cal Poly students and recent alumni can expect to receive feedback on their submissions within an average of three to five school or business days (Monday through Friday, excluding finals week, academic holidays, and breaks) upon submission.
To receive feedback, please complete this form and ensure your document(s) meet the following criteria:
-
No longer than two pages
-
Document is either a resume or a cover letter
-
Document file format is in .doc, .docx, or .pdf
*If your resume and/or cover letter is part of a class assignment, please do not use the Digital Resume and Cover Letter service. Instead, you may attend our virtual drop-in hours to have it reviewed by a career advisor.
Feedback Expectations: This service is intended to provide quick tips and support for your materials. This service does not replace or replicate the effectiveness of a 1:1 meeting with a career counselor or career advisor. If you have questions regarding feedback on your resume or cover letter, please utilize our virtual drop-in hours or make an appointment to meet with your career counselor.
