WHAT WE OFFER:
RESUME WRITING SERVICES
A Resume is a vital tool when searching for a job. Find out how we can help you prepare a professional Resume, thanks to our years of experience in the private, nonprofit and government sector.
We work closely with you to create a resume that is tailored to your target industry and job role. Our process includes:
- Consultation: We gather detailed information about your work history, education, skills, and career goals.
- Tailored Formatting: We use clean, professional formatting that ensures your resume is easy to read and stands out visually.
- Keyword Optimization: We incorporate industry-relevant keywords to help your resume get noticed by applicant tracking systems (ATS).
- Impactful Language: We craft strong bullet points that highlight your accomplishments and quantify your contributions whenever possible.
COVER LETTER WRITING SERVICES
A Cover Letter is a document that is sent with your Resume to provide additional information about your skills and experience. Employers use this letter as a way to select the most qualified applicants for available jobs and to determine which candidates they would like to interview.
Your cover letter is your chance to tell your story and explain why you’re the right fit for the job. We help you:
- Personalize Each Letter: We tailor each cover letter to the specific job or industry you’re applying for.
- Highlight Key Strengths: We emphasize the most relevant skills and experiences that align with the job posting.
- Demonstrate Enthusiasm: We help you express genuine interest in the role and the organization.
- Maintain Professional Tone: We ensure your cover letter is both engaging and appropriately formal.
THANK YOU NOTE
A thank-you note after an interview is a short, professional message sent to the interviewer(s) to express gratitude for the opportunity to interview, reaffirm your interest in the position, and highlight your qualifications.
Why it’s important:
- Shows professionalism and courtesy – It reflects well on your character and manners.
- Reinforces your interest – It reminds the employer that you’re enthusiastic about the role.
- Recaps your strengths – You can briefly mention how your skills align with what the company needs.
- Sets you apart – Many candidates skip this step, so sending one can give you a competitive edge.
What it typically includes:
- A thank you for the interviewer’s time.
- A reference to something specific discussed during the interview.
- A quick reiteration of your enthusiasm and fit for the role.
- A polite closing, expressing your hope to hear back.
LinkedIn Profile Development
Until a few years ago, to search for a job, you needed to send your Resume to hundreds of job sites (Monster, CareerBuilder, Indeed, among others.) LinkedIn is now a new tool we have available for the purpose of finding a job and promoting yourself. LinkedIn is key if you want to go beyond simple job searches and also develop a strong personal brand.
A LinkedIn profile is important because it serves as your professional online presence, allowing you to showcase your experience, skills, education, and achievements to a global network of employers, recruiters, and peers. Here are several key reasons why it’s valuable:
- Visibility to Employers and Recruiters
Many recruiters use LinkedIn as a primary tool for sourcing candidates. A strong profile increases your chances of being discovered for job opportunities. - Professional Networking
LinkedIn helps you connect with colleagues, industry professionals, alumni, and potential collaborators, expanding your network and creating opportunities for referrals and partnerships. - Personal Branding
It acts as a platform to present your unique value—your story, expertise, and career goals—making you stand out in your industry or field. - Credibility and Trust
Recommendations, endorsements, and shared content can build trust with your connections, showing that others recognize your professional contributions. - Job Search and Career Growth
LinkedIn offers job listings tailored to your profile, and your activity (e.g. engaging with content, publishing articles) can demonstrate thought leadership and help with career advancement. - Industry Insight and Learning
By following companies, influencers, and groups, you can stay informed about trends, news, and best practices relevant to your field.
