I’m Submitting Résumés But Not Hearing Back: A Webinar for Master’s Students

Sending out résumé after résumé, but not getting any interviews? You’re not alone. In fact, 48% of graduate students believe that submitting résumés to online job postings is the most effective way to job search. But it’s not an effective strategy, and it often leaves master’s students frustrated and defeated in their job search.

This workshop will walk you through why submitting résumés online is not an effective job search strategy—and what you should do instead. You’ll learn what actually catches a hiring manager’s attention and how to strengthen your job search strategy.

This virtual workshop is designed for master’s students from all academic disciplines who are wondering

• What should I do instead of spending time on online applications?
• How do I begin developing a professional network if I don’t have one?
• How do I use LinkedIn to research careers and build a network?

Duke graduate students can attend this workshop for free, including access to replays of events when available, through The Graduate School's subscription to Beyond Graduate School. Advance registration is required.
