Vackar College of Business and Entrepreneurship, Jerome Wiggins, &nbsp;explained the services available to students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p><strong>\u201cWe help with getting students prepared for the workforce, and that could be anything from resume reviews, mock interviews, job search strategies, learning where to go to attend some of our events, like the career fair,\u201d Wiggins said.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Career advisor Brandon Garcia said one way students can strengthen their resumes is by describing their accomplishments with specific numbers rather than simply listing responsibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Garcia added measurable results can help demonstrate the impact of a student&#8217;s experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p><strong>\u201cQuantity also is just numbers that are added to the actual bullet points of, like, how many things have you actually done? For example, if you&#8217;re a tutor, how many students do you tutor a week?\u201d Garcia said.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Career Center also provides resume guides and templates to help students organize their education, work experience, extracurricular activities and skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Senior&nbsp;accounting major, Mauro Nunez, said using one of these templates helped him recognize experiences he had previously left off his resume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p><strong>\u201cThey gave out a resume template, and it really did help me a lot. It was able to give me insight into what I should put on it because before I didn&#8217;t have, like, the clubs I was a part of,\u201d Nunez said.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students can also use&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vmock.com\/utrgv\">VMock<\/a>, an online platform that provides personalized feedback on resumes, or schedule an appointment with a career advisor through 12twenty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Career Center offers services on both the Edinburg and Brownsville campuses, including drop-in advising for students seeking assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information about resume reviews, appointments and career development resources, students can visit&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/utrgv.edu\/careercenter\">utrgv.edu\/careercenter<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is Diego Montano for Vaquero Radio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UTRGV Career Center is open to all UTRGV students, giving them resources such as resume templates and<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":43,"featured_media":8895,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[16,696,831,838],"tags":[68,44,42,26],"class_list":["post-8893","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-edinburg","category-education","category-on-campus","category-student-involvement","tag-edinburg","tag-news","tag-students","tag-utrgv"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.4 -
