After completing your Personal and Academic Information tabs, you will be 

 

asked to modify your privacy settings.  It is strongly recommended that you 

 

accept to receive email messages from OCPD; selecting “no” will put you at a 

 

disadvantage as you will not receive critical communications such as those 

 

regarding scholarship programs, employment opportunities, or notices regarding 

 

your CareerLink account. 

 
 

 

 
 
 

You may also choose to include your resume in the resume book, which 

 

employers are able to view online.  If you select “yes,” please make sure that your 

 

resume has been reviewed thoroughly by an OCPD career counselor. 

 
 

By looking at the “Completion Status” box, you will be able to see the number of 

 

documents you have uploaded to CareerLink.  The steps to upload a document to 

 

the system will be discussed later in the guide.
