1-Page PDF Resume

Students apply with a resume that is clear, concise, and professional

All resumes follow Upcelerate's template, which ensures that they are well-structured and easy to read. Upcelerate takes the guesswork out of how to format a resume and how to fit the most important information onto one page. The PDF version can be printed when applying to jobs in person, attached to an email application, or uploaded to an applicant tracking system.

Extended with a QR Code

Recruiters scan with a phone or tablet to access the online resume

The PDF resume has a QR code in the top right that links to the online resume. This allows for additional information to be found online instead of cluttering the resume. It also demonstrates that your students embrace technology and are ready for today's workforce. QR codes are used everywhere from magazines to posters and now they can be on your students' resumes.

Stand Out with Images

Students can showcase themselves and their work

Everyone knows that "A picture is worth a thousand words" and this is especially true on a resume. By including images (limit of 4 for the free version), students show what makes them unique and why they are somebody awesome instead of just somebody else.

Support with References

Proactively share what others think

Instead of just providing references upon request, students can leverage references to strengthen their application. A positive recommendation validates a recruiter's decision to interview the candidate.

Colour PDF and Themes

Students can let their true colours shine when they apply

While most resumes today are black and white, the premium version provides an opportunity for students to shine with their application in colour. Gallery images will display in colour on the PDF. Students can also select a colour for the accent lines on the PDF and online version to make their resume stand out from the rest.

Customized Applications

Emphasize strengths with a cover line and cover letter

In the premium version, students can track all of the jobs that they apply to and customize a cover line and cover letter for each job. The cover line prominently displays on the PDF. It helps make a positive first impression that the resume is tailored specifically for that job and having a cover letter further highlights the students' fit for the position.

Promote to Students

Give them the best tools to stand out

They only have 10 seconds to make an impression with their resume. By submitting the PDF version when applying for jobs, they can make every second count. Feel free to post the Upcelerate poster around your campus to spread the word.
