Four Resume Do’s & Don’ts to Land the Interview 

 By Sarah Seavey Career Educator

link to your resume in your contact information and any other professional communication methods. Include your website link in your email signature, and add the link to your LinkedIn account. Creating content and being active on LinkedIn are just a few avenues to add tangible value to your resume and highlighting your approach to the industry.

Do:

Don’t:

Sell yourself short A resume should NOT be a running list of tasks you have completed. Instead, a successful resume highlights most relevant skill sets and accomplishments that illustrate a complete and successful portfolio in reply to the job post. Identify your skills through your education (classes, team projects, and research), experiences (internships, work), and engagement (clubs, leadership roles, and volunteer and community service).

What makes you unique? Display your capability: Your resume is one part of your portfolio and professional brand. Do not shy away from adding your accomplishments on paper and do not limit yourself to just the resume. Create a personal website that highlights your work. Add the

Highlight Transferable Skills Take note of transferable skills. Transferable skills are skills and abilities which can be applied to different jobs or industries. For example, if you worked in a restaurant, transferable skills include customer service, teamwork, sales, cash handling, and supervisory experience. When transferring your skills, ensure each bullet point on your resume has a purpose. When writing a bullet point, ask yourself: • Who do/did I work with? (team size, autonomously, direct report to supervisor) • What were my tasks or accomplishments?

• How well did I complete the task?

ers spend 6-7 seconds viewing a resume for the first time.

• What was the result of my effort? (awards, increased sales by 20%)

Do:

Your Research

• Does this bullet point demonstrate my skills and experience? • Is this bullet point clear and concise?

Don’t: Go for

Quantity over Quality Would you rather:

• Apply to 50 companies and have one call you for an interview • Apply to 4 companies and have one call for an interview Option A requires a higher investment of your time. Your investment will go further in quality of application materials over quantity of postings. Another way to think of it is from the company’s viewpoint. Companies receive high volumes of applications and messages from candidates with general resumes. Candidates often make the mistake of expecting the company to invest the time in finding the ways the candidate matches their position. However, typically, employ-

Do your research on the company and role you are applying for. Is the company in the news recently or working on a new initiative, or have they recently won an award? What is the team currently working on? Can you identify any points for improvement? Can you solve them? What value do you add to the team? Starting your research of the company and role during the job search phase will enhance your overall job search experience and success. First, you will have a sense of the company’s culture, mission, vision and values. This will help you go from applying to anything that sounds good, to applying to jobs you are not only qualified for but make you excited for the future. Secondly, research will add focus to your resume and better engage the reader. Lastly, detailed research will demonstrate initiative by allowing you to arrive to the interview equipped with insight and prepared to illustrate exactly why you are a good match for the company. Remember, your first impression with the company starts during the application process, not on your first day!

There are many paths to a career. Choose your own. 

By Kim Mathie

Marketing & Communications Specialist

You have to start somewhere, or so the saying goes. In college, the usual place to start is choosing a major. Once you do that, suddenly you have a place to start: a set of courses to take, specific things to learn, and people to meet. For some, knowing the career they’re pursuing makes choosing a major easy. For others, choosing a major is a necessary part of college, and just a path to get them started, to somewhere. Which leads to the questions, does that path always have to lead to a career? Should it? The short answer is not really. Student Engagement and Career Development surveyed three UA alumni who work for Vanguard, none of whom majored in finance or a major related to finance. So how did they find themselves so far afield of their major, working at one of the world’s largest investment companies? This is the first in a series of three.

Thomas Johnson, Supervisor, Personal Advisor Services, grew up wanting to work in sports, and entertained the idea of becoming a professional athlete.

“I abandoned the idea of being a professional athlete pretty quickly in high school,” remembers Johnson. “I was just not athletically gifted enough to realize that dream.” As a sports fan, though, he still wanted to be involved with sports. “I thought it would be really interesting to either be a sports broadcaster or a sports writer, which led me to becoming a Communication major and a Journalism minor at UA.” His experiences in and out of the college classroom enabled Johnson to have a successful, decade-long career in sports broadcasting right out of college, but eventually he was ready to make a change. “I’m the type of person that’s always looking to challenge myself and to continue learning and growing, so I was looking to make a drastic change for my second career,” explains Johnson.

Still, Johnson found himself relying on some old skills to open new doors.

desire to learn about finances, but no matter what change I have made in my career, I have always been able to fall back on my superior communication skills to get me through until I was able to fully educate myself on the nuances of the new role.”

“When I decided to switch gears and change careers, I Thomas Johnson truly saw the Vanguard value of my Communication degree as numerous different industries listed it as a desirable major for jobs in their companies,” says Johnson.

In the end, it was the skills Johnson developed as a communications major that allowed him to forge different careers in very different industries.

And it was certainly a skill-set that helped him start a new career in finance at Vanguard, as well as having a growthmindset.

“When I was in school, I did not even have a fleeting thought about the financial industry, and yet here I am a supervisor of financial advisors,” says Johnson. “It was a winding path, to end up in a role like this. But it was the best path for me, so it’s important for students to have an open enough mind to realize that not all paths are a straight line and to have the willingness and courage to take a different path when they feel it is time.”

“While I had no real business or finance background to speak of, I knew how to talk to people, which Vanguard also recognized. I still had the drive and

8 RECS FOR RECS: THE DO’S & DON’TS OF ASKING FOR A RECOMMENDATION

By Mary Frances Kuper

Consider the context.

Associate Director, Career Education

Whether you’re applying for an internship, full-time job, or admission to graduate school, nearly any application will ask you either for a list of references or letters of recommendation. While it may seem like your references will be doing the work in this step, you need to do a few things on your end to make sure you end up with a great recommendation. Here are a few tips to consider:

DO

Help them help you.

A quick email detailing what position or

program you’re applying for, what skills you’re hoping they can speak to, and attaching a copy of your current resume can help a potential reference verify your qualifications and provide more evidence in support of your application.

Not all references are created equal. Take time to carefully consider who can give you the best reference. If you’re applying to graduate school, faculty members who have worked with you in your academic area will make the biggest impact. Similarly, if applying for a job, include references from supervisors who can speak about your work style and performance. Cultivate a large network of potential references so that you can pick and choose based on what skills and qualities you’re hoping your reference can vouch for.

Keep contacts fresh. While faculty, staff, and former supervisors want to support you, it’s hard to do so if you haven’t spoken to them in years. Select recommenders who you’ve worked with for an

extended period of time and who you’ve maintained a relationship with. Be sure to stay connected through LinkedIn or email to keep them in the loop with what you’ve been up to. Not only will they enjoy hearing updates, but they’ll be ready to speak to how you’ve grown.

Say thank you!

Recommenders and references should be professional or academic contacts who can speak to your work in context. Recommendations from family and friends may not be taken seriously as the recommendation is clearly biased (of course your mom loves you!), or interviewers may worry that you don’t actually have anyone in your professional life who can speak to your work.

Show your gratitude for their time by following up and letting them know what happened. They’ll love celebrating your wins with you, and even if you don’t get an offer, they’ll be there looking for ways to show you continued support.

DON’T

Assume they’ll say yes. Even for long-standing references and mentors, it’s never good to get a reference call out of the blue. Surprise calls can throw a reference off course if they aren’t sure what you’re going for or how they can best serve as a reference.

Use family and friends.

Wait until the last minute.

Writing a good letter of recommendation can take a long time, so be sure to give your contacts plenty of time to write your letter- at least two weeks, and more if you can.

Forget to follow up. Haven’t heard from your reference? Stay on top of it and be sure to send a reminder. You may want to ask at least one more person to write a letter than you’ll need so that if someone can’t get you a letter in time, you can still complete the application process.
