Easily generate specialized resumes for each university or job.
The importance of your resume cannot be overstated. Whether you’re applying for a job or to a university, this document is the gateway to your future. It is often the very first thing an admissions department looks at when vetting you as an applicant, and it is up to you to ensure that it makes a fantastic first impression. And this goes way beyond just the content; the design, layout, and structure all have to be carefully considered to make you really stand out from the crowd. Too often students get caught up in a very specific part of their resume and fail to consider the bigger picture: your resume must tell your story. This document gives you a chance to package up all the key facts about yourself that are relevant to a recruiter or an admissions officer, and showcase the things you want to showcase that can be tough to talk about naturally. When it comes to building your resume, you really are playing on home turf, which is all the more reason that it needs to knock it out of the park. That’s where Gradly can help.
One of the most concise ways we help our users is by providing you with a Resume Score when you review your resume with Gradly. This score takes into account a multitude of factors to determine how well your resume matches what a university or company is looking for. For instance, Gradly considers the skills you have listed: if you’re applying for a Computer Science program, have you listed programming languages you’re proficient in? What about extracurricular activities… have you indicated what sort of things you’re involved in outside of academia? If you’re applying for a senior role at a company, have you listed a requisite amount of experience at more junior levels? Is your resume really well tailored for a Business Administration program, but you’re applying for a Sports Management program? Gradly will instantly surface any of these disconnects that are easy to miss as the applicant and give you feedback on how to fix them, as well as point you in the right direction if you’re off on the wrong track.
Watch the transformation (drag to take control)
Something that becomes increasingly important as you advance in your academic or professional career is the need to craft a specialized resume for every application you submit. For example, when applying to graduate school, you wouldn’t want to use the same resume for an application to a Law< program as you would use for an International Relations program. For the resume you submit to the Law school, you might highlight courses such as “Constitutional Law” and extracurricular activities like “Debate Club,” whereas the International Relations school might get a version that highlights your time spent participating in the “Mock United Nations.” The same goes for job applications: you wouldn’t use the same resume for an Accounting position as you would use for a Business Intelligence position. For an Accounting role, you might highlight software proficiencies like Excel or SAP, whereas for Business Intelligence you might highlight your experience with Snowflake and SQL. Fortunately, Gradly makes it extremely easy to rapidly generate variations of resumes for different applications. For university applications, simply explore new universities, and if you review a resume inside of the university application, Gradly will automatically pull in the relevant context for the program you’re applying to when reviewing your resume. For jobs, simply add a job, copy and paste the job description, and that’s it!
Upload your resume, and Gradly instantly corrects all formatting issues. No more manual fixes, expensive templates, adjusting spacing, fonts, or margins... or fighting Microsoft Word.
