For this activity, you will prepare a professional resume and submit it to the COD Career Services VMock SMART Resume program for feedback.  Based on the feedback the VMock SMART Resume system provides, you will then revise your resume.

VMock, a 24-7 online resume review tool, leverages technologies like data-science, machine learning, and natural language processing to provide instant personalized feedback on your resume based on criteria gathered from employers and global best practices – from anywhere, at any time of the day.

VMock will:

Give you an aggregate resume score to assess the strength of your Resume benchmarked against your own College of DuPage peer group

Provide you with resume guidelines based on your school template to ensure that you do not miss the fine details and establish a great first impression

Assess how well you have marketed your core competencies to showcase the right skill set reflected in academics, experience, achievements etc.

Give you line-by-line suggestions to improve your resume content in view of your course and level of experience

VMock is designed to work with resumes from many different fields across various industries. Once you receive the detailed feedback, make relevant changes to the resume and re-upload it to see the increased score and associated improvements.
