Maximize Your Job Search


Maximize your Job Search process with Career Services at Fordham! 

Now, to make the application process a little bit easier… you can not only apply to jobs through CareerLink, Fordham’s Exclusive Online Job Database, but you can also post your resume on CareerLink as part of a "Resume Book"!

Recruiters will have access to the resume books through the Career Services Department, and will contact you if they are interested in your academic talent, experience and/or skill set.  Using this feature allows you to expand the number of recruiters that are able to view your resume.

To take advantage of the Resume Book feature... and upload your resume today!

HOW TO:
1. Log in to your CareerLink account. (Using your my.Fordham login info.)
2. On the home page, click on the "Documents" tab.
3. Then, click on the "Opt-In Resume Book" tab.
You will then see your resume(s) and the button on the right called, "Select Resume Books". 
4. Click on “Select Resume Books”.
5. Then, check off the box next to the Resume Book which features the industry that best suits you.
6. Finally… hit "Submit".
Feel free to choose as many industry Resume Books that fit you. Your resume will need to be uploaded onto CareerLink in order for you to opt-in to the Resume Book feature. 

**Before opting in to a Resume Book, make sure that your resume is reviewed, that you don't have any grammatical mistakes. Your format should be consistent. You should feel confident in your resume, because many employers will view it!

The Career Services staff is happy to help – and is available to review and assist you in editing your resume anytime. Make sure to set up an appointment on CareerLink before opting in to the Resume Book feature.
