The Process
I supply a written quote first which is based on how long the product will take to write and the level of complexity. If you want to apply for a specific job, email me the job link. Allow for at least seven working days before the job deadline.
Resumes
I ask clients to send me an old resume in Word as this can save money. If you don’t have one, I build a new resume from scratch.
I start the drafts by sending a number of introductory questions. In the second and third drafts, I concentrate on results and duties.
The secret to building a good resume is to focus on what you’ve achieved in the last seven years. The secret to building a great resume is to include figures that support your claims.
The draft resume goes back and forth between us until it becomes a professional marketing document of your career experiences, skills and capabilities.
Cover Letters
Cover letters follow the same drafting process. It takes two drafts to get a cover letter in to ‘pitch perfect’ shape.
Every cover letter contains your professional motivation for applying and what you uniquely bring to the position. Targeted cover letters work better than generic letters.
I write a cover letter after the resume is completed.
LinkedIn Sites
I use the new resume to create a professional LinkedIn sites. LinkedIn sites are great for expanding on your workplace wins and adding graphics.
I ensure there is brand consistency and identification between the resume and the LinkedIn site. Both are interrelated sales documents. They take four days to launch.
I do not write selection criteria.
