FAQs
How do I change my status from 'student' to 'jobseeker?'
If you're associated with a school or a bootcamp: Contact your school-provided coach to request the change.
If you're not associated with a school or bootcamp: Navigate to the Profile page, you will see a section for Career Status on the right with an 'Update' button. Click that and it will take you to the page where you can change your status.
How do I schedule a meeting with my coach?
First you must submit your resume, LinkedIn, and Prentus profile for your coach to review. This will enable you to select a meeting with them. Then you will navigate to the My Coach page and select your preferred meeting type.
How do I use the LinkedIn Analyzer?
The LinkedIn Analyzer requires your LinkedIn profile URL. Here's what the proper profile URL looks like for Prentus' founder, Rod Danan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rodhdanan/
Over on your Profile page under the Personal tab, you should save the full length version as your LinkedIn URL: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rodhdanan/
What the analyzer cares about is what comes directly after the /in/ so for Rod it's: rodhdanan
The analyzer automatically reads the rodhdanan part, but if there are any extra characters (such as /) then it won't work.
How do I use the Resume Builder?
The Resume Builder takes information from your profile, so you should first make sure that the information in your profile is accurate. Navigate to the Profile page and complete each tab (ex. Personal, School, Experience, Projects, etc.).
Make sure not to include any weird characters in your descriptions, as they may prevent the Resume Builder from working properly.
Next, navigate to the Resume page and complete the Resume Options section. Your resume will build itself as you fill out this section.
