Resumes

“The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches but to reveal to him his own.”

– Benjamin Disraeli

As a resume writer, I get to word and structure the short document that can make or break someone’s future. My talents in this area include the ability to quickly distill and craft someone’s entire personal and professional history into a beautifully designed, fast-reading resume that sells its subject very effectively. This is not only a passion, but a labor of love and a privilege. We all need help in stepping up our game to where we think it should be, and I am thankful that so many people have trusted me to help make their lives better.

Having written over 1000 resumes for mostly mid-career technical executives and professionals, I see myself as one who reveals, in aesthetically-pleasing layout and strong market-proven language, the talents of my clients to whomever their chosen audiences are, with the undiluted goals of landing the interview and the gig.

The majority of my resumes are two full pages, but the sample below happens to be a one pager for someone with a six-year career history that illustrates my work at a glance:

My talents – my riches, as Mr. Disraeli calls them – involve gathering your information and capturing the truth of your essence, at the same time employing those pragmatic market-proven language and layout elements that make you and all you’ve done resonate with your audience.

What I never do: Tell someone else how to feel, or that they should be happy where they are. The Wright Brothers didn’t stay on the ground. My grandparents left their country of origin. People change jobs all the time – all in the name of seeking and doing better. This is the natural progression of any life worth living.

Please select your resume type (Executive, Professional or Student):

Once you’ve placed your order, I’ll be in touch with you directly to request your current resume, CV and/or other career-related information. We’ll schedule a phone chat where I ask you very specific questions based on your info, after which you’ll receive your resume draft in 48 – 72 hours. From there, we’ll collaborate to edit and refine your resume into a final version.

Each resume comes with a personalized cover letter.

I also offer, as part of my personal Outreach program, one free resume per month to someone truly in need of a small hand up, in return for my being able to use it online and/or in my resume writing books. Contact me with your story for consideration.
