February and March are busy months for students applying for summer internships, jobs, and graduate school. Hillsdale College’s career services office is holding a “Resume Olympics” to help them prepare for the couple of busy months ahead.
Career services staff and Student Affairs Mentors are offering quick, one-on-one resume help sessions Monday from 1-5 p.m. in the Grewcock Student Union.
“Students come into our office all the time and don’t have any idea of what a resume is and don’t know where to start,” Assistant Director of Career Services Sophia Carr said. “Really anyone has something to put on a resume. It’s just a lot of students don’t know where to start.”
Carr said she hopes the event will help with three job fairs the office is advertising in February: Job Pursuit in Lansing, the Classical School Job Fair in Hillsdale’s Searle Center, and the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C.
Career services is also collecting students’ resumes to send to employers in advance of the job fairs.
