“…The formal elements of résumés and cover letters have remained relatively stable since the 1980s (McDowell, 1987), changing little when transitioning to electronic media (Baker et al, 1998;Hutchinson & Brefka, 1997). However, the social contexts surrounding résumés and cover letters have changed immensely (Randazzo, 2019a); now, students develop their own personal brands (Watson, 2019), network online via LinkedIn (Moore, 2019), and navigate applicant tracking systems (ATS). During the 2010s, several studies considered how instructors have taught within classrooms at their own universities, providing implications about where students find résumé-writing advice (Randazzo, 2016), how to design an effective résumé (Diaz, 2013), and how to engage students with additional writing and research about their future careers (Fillenwarth et al, 2018;Randazzo, 2012).…”
