Career Services

To empower your job search, we offer you a full range of essential job search tools. Although resume writing is the focal point of our services, we also offer attention-getting cover letters, well- documented reference sheets, and dynamic interview coaching.

Resumes
A powerful, results-oriented resume that is targeted to your specific career goals will get attention--and interviews--by highlighting your own unique skills, accomplishments, and value.

An effective resume, written by a Certified Professional Resume Writer, is written especially for you in a format that best fits your background and future goals. It not only increases your marketability and makes a great first impression, it also gives you the confidence you need to succeed in your job search.

An ASCII text conversion of your resume, a required format for submitting your resume on line, is also available.

We have over 10 years experience writing resumes for all occupations and at all occupational levels. Typical clients are Executives, Professionials, Career Advancers, Career Changers, Back-to-Work Moms, and Recent Graduates.
Cover Letters
A strong cover letter invites and entices hiring managers to want to learn more about you. The cover letter is an introduction to you. It should be interesting and capture attention. A well-written letter highlights specific accomplishments and shows what you can do for your new employer.

Each cover letter is tailored to a specific job and company and aggressively sells you as the person who can best do the job, by letting them know that you not only meet, but exceed their specifications.

We also offer generic cover letters targeted to your career goals that you can customize yourself for a specific job.

Partnering a sharp cover letter with your new professional resume can really tip the scales in your favor.

Reference Lists
Your reference list is set up on professional stationery with letterhead, paper and font that matches your resume. Your references are neatly centered on the page listing all necessary contact information. To give your prospective employer more information and make contact easier, we can add a sentence or two (to the side of) each contact that describes your relationship to the reference.

Interview Coaching
An effective and expert-written resume will get you the interviews, but acing the interview will get you the job. Interview coaching arms you with the appropriate answers to the most frequently asked questions.

We can help you articulate your value and the contributions you can make to a new employer. By preparing a compelling one-minute core message which describes your most important accomplishments and skills and how they will benefit your new employer, you can place yourself above the competition.

Pricing
The cost of not having an expertly written resume is much higher than our price. A dynamic resume that brings out the best in you is an investment in your career, and your return on investment will be considerably high.

Our services are very reasonably priced and depend on the complexity of the project. Every client's job situation is different and prices are quoted on an individual basis.

We offer you a preliminary consultation, (at no cost), to find out what your needs are and will quote you a price at that time. If you have a current resume, we will gladly critique it for you, (at no cost or obligation). Knowing how important it is for you to have a strong resume that is going to work for you, we will make recommendations, suggest the appropriate service, and quote a fee.

To give you a general idea of pricing for resumes, a senior management or executive level resume starts at $350.00, a mid-management or professional level starts at $250.00, and an entry level or recent graduate starts at $200.00. Cover letters, follow-up and thank you letters start at $75.00. To ensure that you get the most out of your interview coaching, we suggest at least three thirty-minute sessions for a total fee of $180.

We guarantee our work. If you do not receive an interview within 60 days, we will either rewrite your resume or offer you two sessions of interview coaching, at no cost.

These prices are miniscule compared to the cost of your education. Continue to invest in your career goals, as you do in other life's goals.

All fees are agreed upon by you before work begins.
