Resume Writing : Stage I

Resume writing at its best – writing your professional career resume as an achievement’s based document of YOUR capabilities versus just a list of past job description(s) and tasks.

(Note: This video was created several years ago, and prices, payment methods, and address has changed. Stage One Resume rewrite services – Commercial Resume starts at $199.00, with a Government Services add-on resume starts at only $25 more (plus $10 per page for each page over four pages); we only take PayPal as the payment method; and the business address has changed – we moved three times! The home-based office is now physically located in the Dahlgren and Gloucester, VA areas.)

What you get:

Review of current resume: provided journaled commentary, critique, critical, and constructive questioning within a written interview format
Reformatting: resume will be rewritten in a (a) easy to read, (b) standardized reverse chronological order of employment, education, and training, (c) sectioned for easy glance ‘find-ability’ for vital information required by recruiters/headhunters/hiring managers; the layout (design) and wording will be revamped
Rounds one and two (and/or three) will ask for critical details: (a) achievements, (b) projects completed, (c) overhead or cost savings, (d) client number or revenue increases, (e) details about formal degrees and education, (f) details about training (non-degree), (g) languages, technology knowledge, publications, conferences, etc.
Once all the details have been squeezed out of the client, the resume will be rewritten in the tightest, most concise use of language to enable a rich document – capability statement; including multiple spelling, punctuation, and grammar checks

Results

A professionally written, polished resume with the most vital and concisely descriptive list of your capabilities as possible in the most appropriate number of pages for your job history and experience. This resume can stand-alone and be printed for presentation to any potential employer requiring a hard copy.
A professionally written resume that ‘shows, not tells’ what a resume owner offers hiring managers from their expertise in a specific industry which ‘brands’ the resume owner as a ‘subject matter expert’ (SME); demonstrating their reliability and validity for what services or products they provide to their employers.
For students – a ‘get in the door’ tool to show what they are promising the world they can do for future employers if they could just ‘get their foot in the door.’

STAGE ONE RESUME REWRITE

Personal career investment = starts at only $199.00

This package provides you a rewrite of your digital resume (MS Word or text only) into a MS Word document resume that is powerful in rich key words, well-written with rich bullets describing your past achievements, experience, and skill sets, so you can demonstrate your capabilities in your future job and career path.

While some career counselors indicate there is no such thing as a ‘one-size-fits-all’ resume and resumes should be two pages or less, this consultant disagrees. Digital resumes convert in automated tracking systems (ATS) and may end up being 3-4 pages on the other side of the firewall, so might as well give them 3-4 pages (if the job seeker has that much experience) to start! A well-written resume will showcase ALL the diverse experience and skill sets of a job seeker, thus a one-size-fit DOES the trick!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

STAGE ONE RESUME REWRITE – COMMERCIAL AND GOVERNMENT SERVICES (GS) RESUME (Two Resumes!)

Personal career investment = starts at only $224.00 for a four-page GS resume baseline plus the break-out of a commercial resume

(Note: for all government services baseline resumes that are over four pages long – for the GS resume – there will be an additional charge of $10 per page (each; over four pages) since the work and number of hours to rewrite GS resumes can get long and intensive; assumes submitted resume is 11-12 point font type size and .75 – 1.0 inch margins)

Save Time and Money – Purchase Stage One (Resume Rewrite) and Stage Two (SEO Coding) together!

Personal career investment = starts at only $363.00*

This package provides you a rewrite of your digital resume, and hidden ethical black hat program coding that no other resume rewrite service provides. We take your rewritten resume, add the hidden coding to increase the number of times a ‘keyword’ is mentioned in your resume “times four” (if a key skill word were mentioned once in the resume, it will be mentioned at least three more additional times within the coding). What this does is push your resume towards the top of the results queue when recruiters and headhunters search in their own proprietary database or in web-based Internet databases (Monster, CareerBuilder, Indeed) so your resume is near the top. (We know recruiters are busy, they will only read the top five to ten results and push the best of those to the hiring manager for review, so you NEED to be in that top 10!)(*Note that any GS resume that is included in the package will be charged extra ($10 per page) for each page after first four pages because of the length of time and intensity of work to complete the government services resume)

All clients who purchase Stage Two also receive two lists when you receive the final resumes with SEO coding, which will assist you in pinpointing and reaching out to companies or recruiters directly to inquire about positions:

The first list is a compilation of over 600 companies across the USA and their recruiting website links. This enables you to review the list, and if you are familiar with any, or want to work for a specific company on the listing, you can click on the URL, and go straight to their recruiting page to search for open and advertised jobs.
The second list is a ‘book’ that is the current year’s version of the international listing of recruiters from AIRS, an internationally known recruiting, sourcing, and training organization. This book provides thousands of POC information for recruiters in specific companies, fields, or industries.
A Cover letter template – you can add your information and we will Quality Assure the final product before you submit it – no extra charge
A list of 50+ interview questions you can pick and choose from to take to the interview with you to showcase your interest in the hiring company and impress the interviewers.
Those who purchase the GS version of their resume will also receive two ‘how to’ instructions on how to go about applying for federal or state level government jobs.

** D. Boyer Consulting provides the best possible resume rewrite for the industry based on experience and knowledge gained as an experienced human resources manager and/or senior recruiter. We are unable to provide the resume owner any guarantees of employment based upon the resume rewrite. Historically, job seekers do have a marked increase in contacts from recruiters and hiring managers after they follow the homework instructions provided by D. Boyer Consulting; and post the rewritten resume in the most appropriate resume and job boards. Factors such as a job seeker’s poor telephonic or face-to-face interviewing skills, current economy, industry-wide down-turn for specific skills being shopped, competition (more qualified) for the position being considered, as well as the job seeker’s salary demands may positively or negatively influence a hiring manager’s decision. These factors are beyond human control, thus guarantees can not be reasonably expected nor demanded.
Once work begins on the Stage for which a customer has purchased, there is no refund. The Resume Writer and Reviewer may spend hours getting a resume prepped for the client, formatting, reviewing, rewording, and the written interview, thus it would be unfair for the client to demand any refunds when most if not all the work has been completed. It would be best to continue to the end and have a completed resume versus stopping the process at any time during the consultant / client relationship. This resume review and revision process will rely on the client’s progression and schedule while working with the consultant on the resume review, rewrite, and revision strategy. If you pay for the services, please ensure you have marked your calendar for follow-up and follow-through. The consultant will not remind the client to follow-up on actions or homework requested. The Client should mark their calendar and plan their schedule to work on their career while the consultant helps guide the client down the right path. Money paid for services will be retained for three months after submission, but are not eligible for a refund after those three months for unused services /stages. D. Boyer Consulting will continue to work with the customer for all services purchased until completed – regardless of the number of months – or years – it takes for follow-up.
