How about getting promoted? Earning what you’re worth?
Enjoying work more? Getting the respect you deserve?
These are some of the benefits my clients have experienced. I offer:
Executive & Professional Resume Writing
LinkedIn Profiles & Strategy | Bios | And Much More!
I’m a communications specialist who partners with successful executives, managers, mid-career professionals, and entrepreneurs. Does that sound like you?
My focus is on helping you uncover and convey your unique value (your personal brand) and accomplishments, paving the way to powerful career documents, interview confidence, and compelling messages to be used across all your networking efforts, job interviews, and social media platforms.
How it Works
Everything begins with the resume writing process, which I use to identify your personal brand and accomplishments that will set you apart. After arming you with an impressive resume, I conduct a one-on-one training session to guide you on the latest job search strategies and tactics that would make sense for you. You might also benefit from:
- a search-optimized LinkedIn profile;
- a biography for use in networking;
- my Link to Success virtual LinkedIn training;
- names of hiring managers or recruiter distribution;
- networking / cover letters and post-interview follow-up letters;
- and TheHireRoad program’s job search strategy and interviewing guidance, and job search or interview coaching.
What I Do and Why I Do It
My company is a marketing firm for executive job seekers. What motivates me is that I’ve always enjoyed writing and helping people. So I built a business around these passions, and I love helping people improve their lives. Based in Southern California, I collaborate with job seekers throughout the U.S. and Canada.
How I Can Help You
While there are no guarantees, many of my clients have…
-
secured higher-paying jobs that enable them to travel more, enjoy life more, worry less, pay for their children’s college education, and have a more secure future;
-
landed new jobs after being laid off that are better than their original jobs;
-
earned internal promotions and moved laterally into better positions internally;
-
and secured jobs that allow them to work from home, letting them spend more time with their families.
Your present and future happiness depends on how you manage your career today … and how you market yourself is one of the key factors that determines what career opportunities are available to you. Be smart and take it seriously.
