Wright State launches AI-powered platform to advance career readiness and strengthen employer connections

Available through Wright State’s Career Hub, Big Interview and Big Resume help students practice for interviews and improve application materials with real-time, personalized feedback to better prepare them for success in the job search.

Wright State University is expanding career support for students with the launch of a free AI-powered platform that delivers instant feedback on résumés and interview skills.

Available through Wright State’s Career Hub, Big Interview and Big Resume allow students to practice interviews and improve job application materials with real-time, personalized feedback day or night.

“Employers are looking for well-prepared candidates, and we want our students to show up as their strongest, most confident selves throughout the interview and application process,” said Kim Gilliam, Ed.D., director of career education and student success. “That’s exactly what Big Interview is designed to support, helping Wright State students stand out to employers and succeed throughout the job search journey.”

The platform provides tailored guidance based on specific job descriptions, helping students refine materials for specific roles while also building broader, transferable skills.

The addition enhances the work of the Career Hub, a centralized space in the Student Union where students and alumni can explore majors and careers, search for jobs and internships, meet with employers, and receive hands-on support such as résumé reviews, mock interviews and free professional headshots.

The new tool will allow the Career Hub to expand its reach and deliver timely, on-demand support to more students.

“We see students at all different stages of the career journey,” Gilliam said. “This tool gives them the space to practice, make mistakes and improve before they ever sit down with an employer.”

While the platform provides immediate feedback, Gilliam emphasized it is a first step. Students are encouraged to continue meeting with career consultants for individualized discussion and feedback on their résumés, job preparation and career goals.

“The technology is powerful, but it doesn’t replace personalized conversations,” Gilliam said. “It helps us have more meaningful, focused discussions with students about their goals.”

Faculty can also integrate Big Interview and Big Resume into coursework, including large-enrollment classes.

The platform is available to all students, faculty and staff. Users must register with a Wright State email address to create an account.

The Career Hub will offer training workshops to help users get started. Dates and times will be announced.
