Why do I need a professional resume? Most positions will require a resume during some point of the hiring process, no matter what your situation. Before you place it in the hands of a hiring decision maker, ask yourself - "how does my resume measure up?" Your resume must accurately portray your key selling points which ideally includes your professional accomplishments, transferable skills and qualifications. Even if you aren't planning a job search, you can never count on employment stability. If you're caught unprepared, ("I need a resume by tomorrow!") you run the risk of submitting a less-than-perfect resume, which certainly won't perpetuate interest or interviews. Let our professional resume writing help catapult you to the top of the "to call" heap by composing a powerful resume demonstrates your commitment to success!       (Kudos from Satisfied Clients!) Back to Top Why should I hire a professional resume writing service? That's a good question, but let me turn it around for a moment. Can you write a resume guaranteed to impress? A resume that stands apart from the 187 other equally-qualified candidates? Do you know exactly what resume trends work and don't work? Do you know what employers are looking for? Well, that's OUR job, and what we do best! A professional resume writer's expertise stems from years of experience working with a diverse group of clients from many industry backgrounds. A professional resume writer knows how to present your achievements and qualifications consistent with what potential employers want to see (80% of hiring managers look for achievements before viewing responsibilities). Our resume writing expertise can help enhance your professional image by furnishing the powerfully-crafted document you need to draw attention. Even if you are a brilliant wordsmith and attempt to do it yourself, it is often difficult to be selectively objective about your background and to pinpoint the exact components a hiring manager looks for. Consider the many questions you must ask yourself before writing an effective resume. Do you know the answers? See what the experts have to say! We know EXACTLY how to maximize your experience and career potential to employers. We have the ability to ideally capture the "resume speak," a tongue native only to professional resume writers whose skills are honed daily by mixing the verbiage necessary for a successful, results-oriented resume. A professionally prepared resume is usually the deciding factor on whether or not you will be selected for an interview. Back to Top How do you conduct your consultations? A personal telephone consultation is ideal, however, many clients prefer to correspond via e-mail due to convenience. Either way, we will conduct a comprehensive information-gathering session where we extract critical facts and uncover vital accomplishments. We also use an individualized, extensive career development questionnaire which affords our clients the proper time necessary to consider the questions and formulate thorough answers. Our clients are frequently amazed over how much they learn about themselves and their career objectives during this important process. This personalized attention gives you the satisfaction in knowing that each resume is tailored to specifically meet your needs. We are not a resume mill, and we don't believe in do-it-yourself resume software where information is plugged in, leaving no room for originality or showcasing your qualifications. We take a great deal of time customizing a resume that highlights YOUR strengths. We are committed to providing excellence and quality to our customers no matter where they reside. Back to Top How much do you charge for professional resume writing services? Cost should always be a consideration for services, but not the only one. If your resume is important to you, you should also base your choice on quality, knowledge, experience and writing skills, in addition to cost. (Visit our resume collection.) Our strong commitment to the industry in terms of our certification, publications, conference attendance, and professional membership assures you of resume writing excellence. You certainly will pay more for that commitment, but you will also receive a resume worthy of the fees involved. If you are using a resume that is NOT generating interviews, soon you will realize the value of a quality resume and other career marketing documents. Your resume is a direct reflection of how YOU view your background. If your resume is sloppy, unimaginative, full of boring "fluff" and isn't professional, you will come across as the same type of employee - remember, your resume reflects YOU before you even get in the door - you know that's a fact. Fees for professional resume development begin at $200.00 and are based upon complexity of work involved. Each client is evaluated differently, and we provide customized price quotes based on YOUR unique situation. We could go on and on "defending" the fees involved and why your resume is so darn important (sorry, we are passionate about this!), but we won't. Suffice to say that ANY professional resume service offering true quality work will cost you money. If you don't realize the importance your resume plays, perhaps we aren't the right resume writing service for you. Visit our New Resume Collection!
