Outside of classes the Korbel School works incredibly hard to ensure its students find interesting and challenging work for internships and upon graduation. The main office that facilitates this work is Career and Professional Development. I have used this office regularly in my time as a student – taking advantage of their resume review services, earning scholarships through the DCC Funds, and now to tailor my resume and cover letter to each job I’m looking at. That said, I’m currently visiting this office about once a week, and I can’t tell you how helpful they have been! Though Mr. Musick is offering me personal help in my interviewing skills, negotiation, etc. it has been immensely gratifying to have a second opinion on my resume and general cover letter. From format, to content and even font, their industry experts have really helped me to highlight my varied and interesting work history. Their office only works with students from Korbel – not the larger DU campus – so they really know how to word sections and specific qualifications to grab the attention of HR departments in the international relations field. My favorite part? They don’t sugarcoat their criticisms. I’ll be the first to tell you that I’m no expert in resume composition, so I’m happy to have advisors who are not afraid to pull out a red pen and completely transform the document.
