Get Started with VMock

Access & Eligibility

BU students can access VMock at www.vmock.com/bu using their BU login name and Kerberos password.

The CCD creates new accounts for all students within the first month of each semester; watch for an access email from VMock. All current BU students enrolled in a degree program, including online degree programs, are eligible to use VMock. BU students may continue to use VMock for two years after graduation.

Please note: LAW graduate students should contact their career office as the School of Law (select graduate programs only) have separate VMock access. 

Features

Resume Optimization Made Easy: Utilize VMock’s Resume Suite to create recruiter-ready resumes tailored for specific job descriptions. Instantly scan and analyze your resume for missing keywords and essential skills to enhance your chances of landing your dream job. Students automatically receive 10 VMock uploads in a given academic year. Each re-score counts for one upload, so we recommend making significant changes before re-scoring.
