Career Week is quickly approaching, and soon the O’Connell Center will be filled with hundreds of employers eager to connect with UF students just like you!
The Career Fair can feel overwhelming with so many employers to meet, but there are plenty of ways to prepare so that when you get past the check-in line, you feel confident and ready to make an impression.
Quinncia is a fantastic resource for polishing your resume, perfecting your LinkedIn profile, and practicing your interview skills before the big day.
Perfect Your Resume and LinkedIn Profile
Your resume is often the first impression you leave with an employer. Quinncia’s AI runs your resume through an Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) that over 70% of companies use, providing detailed feedback on content, formatting, and overall impact.
Your online presence is also becoming increasingly important to recruiters. A polished LinkedIn profile is just as important as your resume! Quinncia analyzes your profile and offers actionable advice to help you create a professional online presence that gets noticed by recruiters.
Preparing to Talk to Employers
Quinncia takes the resume you upload and generates mock interview questions tailored to your experiences and desired industry. The platform simulates interviews as realistically as possible, giving you detailed feedback on areas like:
- Speech Rate: Are you speaking too fast or slow?
- Eye Contact: How engaging is your presence?
- Skill Mentions: Are you highlighting relevant skills?
- Answer Quality: How clear and impactful are your responses?
Pro Tip: Complete at least three mock interviews before the fair to build confidence and refine your answers. With each practice session, you’ll gain insights and improve in real-time.
