To create the best possible résumé for you, we need to get to know you. This is why we schedule a personal appointment and conduct a private interview. If necessary we will conduct a phone interview, or send a brief questionnaire. In some cases we might do both.
We start with an in-depth discussion with you, to develop knowledge of your best qualifications. Discuss the story behind the résumé -- motivations, developments, and distinctions that impact your career.
We then develop your draft résumé. This normally involves reformatting, adding or subtracting content, and adding the professional touches which distinguish a professionally prepared résumé. After polishing and review, we send the draft to you by email, or meet for a follow-up appointment.
You review the résumé and make sure it is accurate, complete, professional, and efficient. Provide feedback and let us know if you are satisfied.
We make whatever changes or modifications necessary after your review, and return the résumé to you. A typical turnaround for a completed résumé is 72 to 96 hours.
Think a Professionally written Résumé is too Expensive?
"If you've never worked with a professional résumé writer, you don't know the
true benefits of working with someone who 'lives and breaths' the industry."
A great résumé can do wonders for your career. A well-written and professional
résumé can uncover new opportunities and open doors that might otherwise be
closed. Maybe you're targeting a new challenge, more money, or just a change of
pace. A great résumé will smooth your transition.
I'm a numbers kind of guy, so let's look at the figures. Most job-search
campaign can stretch out for weeks or months. First, think of the salary you're seeking. For the sake of this
example, we'll use $50,000. Second, take that number and divide it by 2,080
(based upon 40 hours per week over 12 months) and you'll come up with a gross
amount of $24.04 per hour.
If you find that position just three weeks sooner, you earned $2884 that might
have been lost. What if you find that position six months sooner that's $25,000!
Each day of unemployment cost you $192.
