In the words of myself , i would say "Coursera" is certainty an highly professional educative platform to learn about academic and non academic lessons. I'm pretty much pleased with their lessons.

The coarse was ok except I was provided a certificate of completion before I even completed the coarse so now my certificate says I completed the coarse on June 4 when in reality I just completed the coarse today the 11th and I have been submitting my accomplishments with my weekly certification for unemployment. Now it is going to look as though I have been lying and will most likely get cut off and have to pay money back, when in fact I have not been lying this coarse just passed me before I actually finished it. At first it said I passed with 80% but when I corrected one of my quizzes they then passed me with 100%.

It is beneficial for those who have very little understanding of writing a resume. If you have attended workshops on resume writing in your college then there is no need of taking this course as it adds very little value to your learning. Furthermore your resume is not checked by the instructor but by your peers who sadly does not have time or experience to review it

Didn't feel that the quiz used to assess the course was relevant, and the quiz was not well made. Would suggest for the quiz to have 4 multiple choice options per question, where learners can only select 1 option, as opposed to multiple options. Also, don't feel that having the peer review is beneficial to this course, in that don't receive useful feedback.

Not actually project centered, except for one peer graded sub part. I had hoped that I would get the opportunity to recreate the resume in a better manner, that did not happen.

This is a very basic course intended for first time job applicants. it does not provide for a lot of learning opportunities if you are already familiar with the job market.

The Quiz on Practicing Bullets was very tough. Its not expected in such a course. I thought that it was the test of English.
