Resumes & Cover Letters

Starting From Scratch

Our resume templates are ATS-friendly and designed to help you make a strong impression. Before submitting your resume, we recommend having at least two people review it. Including a tailored cover letter can also help you stand out as a top candidate.

Current students and alumni can receive personalized resume critiques from our career coaches by emailing careersuccesscenter@shsu.edu or scheduling an appointment. Please allow 3–5 business days for email reviews.

Additional templates and guides are available at the Career Success Center or in the Blackboard Learning Lounge for undergraduate students.
