Did you know that a well-written resume should be
composed for two audiences?
Resumes need to be written both for computer scanning
softwares (resume databases) as well as individual Human
Resource and Hiring Managers. Top resumes are written
both for a computer and an actual person.
Many companies (especially the larger ones) utilize
resume databases to store applicant information. Have you
noticed that when you apply to positions, you are actually
uploading your resume for them? These databases look
for keywords. If you don't have enough, your resume might
be overlooked or simply "not picked up" for the job in which
you fit the bill perfectly. Too many, and your resume will
lose focus and not attract the attention of the individual
reader reviewing the resume after the computer
scanning/resume database picks it up.
I compose resumes using both the right balance of
keywords and your unique accomplishments (what makes
you stand out above the rest of your competition) to attract
the attention of both computer scanning software searches
and the individual person/hiring manager/reader/HR
representative who is reviewing your resume. When you
possess a well-written resume, you can land the
interview for the job of your dreams.

| Striking Resumes that Emphasize your Accomplishments and What Makes YOU Unique while Placing Strategic Keywords to be Picked Up by Resume Databases |
| What Makes Me Different |
There are many resume writers to choose from. There are the large
resume writing firms that send the same critique to each person they
speak (yes, that is true. In most cases they send the same critique
to each person) and want to charge you $600-$1200. On the flip
side, there is the new resume writer that will charge you to simply
format it and put some bullets in your resume. Either way, you are
not getting the best value for your dollar.
I work with each client individually. I gather your accomplishments
and what you performed at each position. Then, I conduct
extensive research. I research open positions that are in line to
what you are seeking across the nation to capture the most current
key words. I place these key words strategically throughout your
resume so that your resume has a leading edge. And, yes, I will
even send you the open positions I find that you might be interested
in.
With all of this information, I compose a rough draft of your resume
that emphasizes your accomplishments, had the correct keywords,
and showcases a summary of your work history. I send it to you for
you to see all of your professional work history, keywords, summary,
and accomplishments in a new light. In most cases, that will even
"jog" your memory and you might even remember some new
achievements to add. Together, we go over the rough draft for any
additions, deletions, and changes. Finally, I proofread your resume
and supply the final copy in both a PDF and Word format.
I can gather all of your accomplishments via phone/email or you
prefer an in-person meeting, I schedule appointments in my office.
However you prefer to work with me, I truly look forward to working
with you.
