Why Hire a Certified Professional Resume Writer?

In today's competitive job market, it is more important than ever to have a strong resume. A carefully written resume can make all the difference between landing an interview or getting passed over. Here are 8 reasons to hire a professional resume writer:

​

1. Looks matter: We're not just talking about your personal appearance—we're talking about the first impression you make on an employer. If you don't appear to fit the employer's expectations, the first impression you make may be your last. Today’s  resumes should have a polished, professional appearance with no typos and a clear presentation of your most significant and persuasive copy. The content is the most important part of a resume, but it's also important to have a format and design that will catch the attention of hiring managers and recruiters.
   

1. An Objective View: It can be hard to look at your successes objectively. But it's important to do so. You need to look at your unique accomplishments first, especially those that are measurable. . How do these stack up to what is most important to potential employers? You can figure this out by talking with an experienced career specialist. They will help you look at your job history and determine  what to include and what to leave out.
   

1. Identifying Your Value: We often don't think our career achievements  are important. We think everyone does the same things we do. But to show your past and future contributions to a company, you need to gather the facts about what you have done. A resume writer can help you do this.
   

1. Don’t Be a Do-It-Yourselfer: It's important to use the right tools when looking for a job. If you’re not a mechanic would you  try to fix your car on your own? The same applies to your career documents - you shouldn't try to write your resume and cover letter without help. Professionals who do this every day know how to make sure your materials are the best they can be. Let them help you so you can focus on getting the job you want.
   

1. Save Yourself Time: Many job seekers spend weeks, or even months, perfecting their resumes. But you don't need to wait to start your job hunt. You can also start looking for a new job while you're still working on your resume. You can speed up the process by hiring a professional to help you write your resume.
   

1. Have the Inside Track: People who have spent weeks, if not months, preparing their resume often contact us. They want to start their job search and the start of a new job as soon as possible. That's why you should hire a professional to help you produce the best results in the shortest amount of time.
   

1. Times Change: Things that have always been done a certain way might not work anymore. You need to keep up with changes in not only your field, but the job market, and employer expectations, overall. We are up-to-date on the latest innovations and market trends, and can help you shorten the learning curve. 
   

1. Save Money: There is a real cost associated with not landing your dream job as quickly as possible. Investing in a resume writing service is well worth it as it can ultimately put more money in your pocket, helping you to increase your salary by $10K, $15K, and even $20K, year-over-year!  We have a lot of clients who found very well-paying jobs they absolutely love, simply by  using our services and investing in themselves.
