Resume services: resume writing and formatting
I've provided resume writing services for nearly two decades. I started writing resumes years before I officially started my writing business in 2009. Unlike "resume mills" and sites that require you to fill out a lengthy questionnaire that auto-fills a stock resume template, you work directly with me and I'm the only one drafting a fresh version of your resume. I offer:
Rapid resume review (Fastest turnaround time. Usually within 48 hours.)
If time is of the essence, I work with individuals during a 1-hour consultation where I provide a 1-page written statement. This is appropriate if you have an existing resume and you feel comfortable making changes on your own. This includes:
Standard delivery (2 weeks or more. 1 week turnaround, when possible.)
I provide a flat fee for each service (resume writing, cover letter, LinkedIn profile writing, interview coaching), and a package rate for all.
Need a new resume
When you need a new resume you may be looking for your first job, your resume is outdated, or you're interested in moving into a new line of work. The latter is especially popular for job seekers during COVID-19 when so many industries have been upended. No matter how much time you spend refining it, a resume will never be finished. A resume must do its job--which is get you a job interview. A professional resume and cover letter free of errors need to quickly convey your most relevant assets. Plus, the content must match a style and form unique to your experience and industry. Font choice, layout, bullet styles--these choices are just as important as what your resume says in words.
Stand out to hiring managers during COVID-19
From resumes for senior leadership to those transitioning into a new career, I use my journalism background to conduct a custom interview. I learn about your most important skills and accomplishments. Using the interview as a foundation, I then succinctly craft descriptions, quantify and draw attention to your most important work to get hiring managers' attention. I also explain how online resumes work to make them search engine-friendly, optimize LinkedIn profiles (LinkedIn has unique search algorithms), and coach individuals on how resume writing has changed due to COVID-19.
My process
Complete the form to learn the next steps. If you opt for a rapid resume review, expect to receive an additional questionnaire. For all projects, a signed proposal and payment are required before we start working together.
