Frequently Asked Questions

Do you charge for the initial consultation?

  • No, our initial meeting is complimentary.  You can decide if you would like to proceed and have a professionally prepared resume designed based on your career goals!
  • We'll discuss a convenient time to meet via phone; unlike some resume writing services, we meet and talk about your career direction. 

Is it necessary to meet in person?

  • Consultations and sharing of documents are accomplished via a phone call and email, or a document sharing service. 
  • In order to keep costs down, and pass on the savings to my clients, I do not have a "brick and mortar" office. 

Do you offer weekend and evening appointments?

  • Most initial and resume review meetings are conducted during regular business hours, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday - Friday, CST, USA.  However, due to time zone differences, and special needs, accommodations can be made.  My goal is to meet your needs; if you have a deadline, I'll do my best to accommodate a quick turnaround. This is, of course, dependent on current obligations to other clients, and your timely input. 

I just need feedback on my current resume.  Can you help?

  • During your initial consultation, we'll review and discuss your current resume, as well as your goals.  I do not provide guidance in the initial free consultation on steps you can take to self-edit your resume.  Your professionally prepared resume is a part of a comprehensive package and ensures you develop your personal brand. 

How long does the whole process take?

  • Every client's workload, personal and professional schedule is different. 
  • We'll discuss this during our initial consultation, but typically, your initial draft will be delivered in 3-5 business days. 
  • Timeline to complete your resume is dependent on your availability as well; as we must meet for draft and final reviews. 
  • There will be many questions, and perhaps requests for additional information during the resume design process. 

What is the success rate?

The are many factors that impact success rate and a single percentage cannot be assigned.  Factors include:
  • Applying for positions that are above or below your level of expertise.
  • The number of positions you apply for on a daily basis.
  • The type of job you are applying for and the market demand  for your career field.
  • How you prepare for interviews.
    • And much more!

How do I pay for your services?

  • You will receive an  invoice via email, and can pay by any major credit card.  This is a simple and safe way to do business. 

What if I work with you, and a year later I want my resume updated? 

  • We can certainly help!  Just call or complete the contact form and we'll agree on a fee.  Fees depend on the complexity of the changes, the amount of time that has passed and the nature of the changes involved.
