Getting Started: Your Dashboard

When you log into Prentus, your dashboard gives you a high-level view of your progress.

From here, you can:

• See assigned tasks or reminders

• Access job tracking tools

• Upload and update career documents

• Review notes or feedback from coaching sessions

 Tip: Log in at least 1–2 times per week to stay current and avoid falling behind.

Uploading & Managing Career Documents

Prentus is where you should store your most up-to-date career materials.

Be sure to upload:

• Your current resume

• Any revised versions after feedback

• Cover letters (if applicable)

• Interview prep notes or portfolios

 Keep file names clear (example: FirstName_LastName_Resume_2026).

This helps both you and your career coach stay aligned.

Tracking Job Applications

One of the most powerful features of Prentus is job tracking.

Use it to:

• Log each job you apply to

• Track application status (applied, interview, follow-up, offer, etc.)

• Add notes from interviews or recruiter conversations

Why this matters:

• It prevents duplicate applications

• Helps you identify patterns

• Makes coaching sessions more productive

 Best practice: Update your job tracker the same day you apply or interview.

Communicating With Your Career Coach

Prentus allows your career coach to:

• Leave feedback on resumes and profiles

• Track your progress

• Reference past conversations and goals

To get the most out of coaching:

• Keep your documents updated

• Track applications honestly (even if progress feels slow)

• Use notes or comments to share challenges or questions

Your coach is here to support you — transparency helps them help you.

Using Prentus as an Accountability Tool

Job searching can feel discouraging at times. Prentus helps keep momentum going.

Use it to:

• Break the job search into manageable steps

• See progress over time (even when results feel slow)

• Stay consistent instead of reactive

Progress doesn’t always show up immediately — but consistency compounds.
