What was your “oh my” moment—the moment when you realized that you needed a professional resume writer?

For a management trainee who wanted to move into a managerial position, that moment occurred when an interviewer wanted to know what he meant by “sense background.” The word was supposed to be “science,” but his spell-checker changed a misspelling (“scence”) to “sense.”

A director of programs and projects realized that professional resume writing might be in order when she showed her resume to friends and relatives who uniformly asked, “But what do you do?” She had described her career so vaguely and with so much jargon that no one—even her colleagues when asked—could decipher her role.

A financial analyst asked his spouse to proofread his resume, and they immediately began fighting about every aspect—format, content, even spelling (is it traveling or travelling?). They needed a referee; asking for professional help was easy.

A new college graduate turned to Robin’s Resumes® when months of fruitless job searching left her with low self-esteem and even lower expectations. In addition to creating a stronger resume that correctly targeted the industries and job openings she was interested in, we aligned her online presence with her resume, increasing her appeal to hiring managers and recruiters.

Many clients come to me when they find that writing a clear, concise resume is taking them far longer than they expected and causing them considerable anxiety. Are they including too much information or too little? Will the format they are using be acceptable to both applicant tracking systems and to hiring managers? Have they overplayed their accomplishments or underplayed?

As a professional resume writer, I help ensure that your resume is mistake free, clearly written, stress free, up to current standards for resumes and an accurate and exciting description of your value. You should be proud to hand your resume to anyone and submit it for the jobs of your choice without worrying about an “oh my” moment.
