The Career Center is transitioning from Optimal Resume to an integrated Resume Builder
The University Career Center & The President's Promise is transitioning from Optimal Resume to an integrated Resume Builder within our Careers4Terps database. This move will make it easier for students and alumni to develop a resume using an online system and immediately make it available to thousands of employers who are searching to fill full-time, part-time, and internship positions. If you have documents in the Optimal Resume software, you MUST download them to your personal hard drive by 11:59 pm, April 27. We are unable to transfer documents for you from the Optimal Resume vendor to Careers4Terps. You can access Optimal Resume via Careers4Terps or directly at https://umd.optimalresume.com/.
The Optimal Resume service will be deactivated on April 28, and the integrated Resume Builder in Careers4Terps will be activated on May 1
REMEMBER: The deadline to download your documents to your hard drive is 11:59 pm, April 27. If not done by this date, you will unfortunately lose them.

Employers participate in our daily rotation by providing 1-on-1 career advice to students/alumni on issues ranging from resume assistance to answering the question "how do I break into your field?". Come learn about ways you can improve your skills and get feedback from industry professionals about what they look for in a candidate.
