We offer many resources to help you make the BEST impression with employers.  Whether you need to polish up your resume, research employers or practice your interviewing skills, we have a resource to meet your needs.

Please note that students are required to achieve a score of 85 on their resume in the VMock system in order to have that resume approved for usage in the GatorHIRED system.  While drop-ins for resume discussions are permitted, we generally do not allow for drop-ins or appointments related to resume review until the student has utilized the VMock system.

Recruiters handle 30-40 roles at once, with each role drawing in around 250 resumes.  They cannot read everyone resume.  Instead, they rely on Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to filter out most candidates.  The goal for you as a candidate is to g
et noticed, not overlooked.  VMock helps you create a resume that will provide what an ATS is seeking.
