… beware of the $2K costs for a new resume…

Posted June 29th, 2023

A great resume doesn’t have to dig that deep underground, listing each and every thing you have done from  beginning to the end…and it doesn’t have to cost the earth!

 

Today I was shocked to hear from  one of our clients who had been informed by another  resume writing service that the cost to “re-brand” him and provide a new resume was $2K!!!

What the? He only wanted a re-furbished resume, not a full-on marketing campaign that costs a bomb and may, or may not, gain him that all important interview!

He also did NOT require re-branding. He had /has his very own unique brand! We all have! A good resume writing service does NOT involve changing your image so much that you are unrecognizable! It does not fake or run away from the truth.

A resume service should explore your background, as it pertains to the job you are applying for –  good resume writer should ask the right questions, get to know the real you. It finds out what your dreams are and most importantly, what makes you tick. In other words, it fleshes out your “best”image, your best skills, knowledge and experience and how that all fits with the jobs you are seeking. It does NOT design a resume without a holistic approach, nor should it cost the earth!

There are many options available to help you get the best resume. You could get on to Uncle Google and download a template. You could engage our resume writing service and for a small investment, get to that all important interview…..and when our service is successfully completed – feel terrific !!
