Don't forget, you can bring in your job application to
have it typed and printed digitally. Please see our Scanning/OCR
page!
An effective resume includes a professional resume and cover
letter followed by a thank you letter. A résumé
is a summary of your life experiences which are directly and
indirectly related to your work goals. It's an autobiographical
sketch of information you want employers to know about you.
Why do I need a professionally written resume?
- It's the major component of your job application packet.
Not only does your potential employer look to your resume
to determine your skills, qualifications, and experience,
your resume also indicates your professionalism, style and
attention to detail.
- Employers receive many resumes. They scan through them
very quickly to find what they're looking for. Your experience
needs to grab the employer's attention and be easily readable
as he quickly assesses it.
- Once your resume is in our computer files, you can update
it and get additional laser prints any time you need.
Submit your information
for your personalized resume to us in a variety of ways:
- Send
it electronically by filling out the following questionnaire. Don’t worry about the wording of your
skills, abilities and job duties. Leave that to us. Provide
us with a simple list of your experiences and we will do the rest.
- Send
portions of your information electronically and tell us the rest by phone or
in person (e-mail or call for an appointment).
- Verbally
give us all your information over the phone or in person (e-mail or call for
an appointment).
- Drop
off a handwritten or typed sheet at our office with the same information as
requested for the on-line questionnaire.
Once we have your
information, we will design and write a resume to give you the optimal edge for
that perfect job. Your resume will
be ready within days and can be e-mailed or faxed to you for review and
approval.You can also review your
resume and pick up laser prints at our office.
Is your resume up to
date?Once you have your resume
in our computer system, keep it updated by e-mailing, faxing or telling us any
new information.New information
will be added to your resume in keeping with the style and formatting.
Do you already have a
resume but are not sure of its effectiveness? Allow us to critique it, provide helpful
suggestions, and check for grammatical accuracy.
Why do I need a cover letter?
A cover letter should accompany a resume when submitted to
an employer and has three major objectives:
- It states why you are writing to the employer - to apply
for a specific job by submitting your packet of information.
- It enhances the employer's interest in you.
- It lets the employer know you are requesting an interview.
The cover letter gives the employer his first insight into
your personality, abilities and motivation.
What we
offer:
- We
will write the body of the cover letter from information you give us for your
resume and based upon your current job goals.
- Your
cover letter will remain in our computer files so it can be personally
addressed to each potential employer whenever you need.
When
filling out the resume questionnaire, simply indicate you would like a cover
letter written from your information or choose one of our package
deals.
Why do I need a thank you letter?
The thank-you letter is the most powerful tool you can use
- and it is a secret tool. Very few people ever think to send
one following an interview.
- It is an essential gesture because all interviews given
to you are a compliment and a privilege.
- The thank-you letter is a second contact with the person
you want to be interested - the interviewer. Your letter
acts as a second encounter with the interviewer. It brings
you into the interviewer's mind again.
- You want to multiply the good impression you have made
on the interviewer. Writing the interviewer a thank-you
letter can turn him/her into a salesperson on your behalf.
Employers notice your attention to business etiquette and
appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Submit your information to us by filling out the questionnaire.
We will
design and write a resume to give you the optimal edge for
that perfect
job. Your resume will be ready in 1-2 days and can be reviewed
and picked
up at our office. For resume prices see 'our
prices' or 'contact us'
for
a personalized quote.
If you have a resume, but are not sure about
it's effectiveness, allow us to critique it and provide helpful
suggestions and check for grammatical accuracy.
