Marketing Resumes

Resume Writing for Marketing Professionals, Managers, and Executives

As a professional in marketing or a related field, employers will expect you to have compelling marketing materials for yourself (resume, cover letter, etc.).

However, marketing yourself is tough, even for a talented marketer! Most job seekers — even those with marketing know-how — struggle to look at themselves objectively and present themselves in a way that is impressive without seeming boastful.

Additionally, you need to carefully tailor your resume for the jobs you’re seeking, starting off with a compelling summary, and incorporating all of the relevant keywords.

And if you’re like most of my clients, you also need a solid strategy, LinkedIn know-how, and other career marketing documents.

That’s why I offer a job search and interview training program called TheHireRoad, LinkedIn support, and comprehensive services. I want to arm you with everything you need to succeed!

My PR and marketing background

Before becoming a career industry professional, I worked at a small, non-traditional, PR and marketing agency. While there, I became a manager and worked with clients in finance, construction and development, and health care. I still do some work as an independent PR consultant and writer, although my main focus is empowering job seekers to land their dream jobs.

I have served on the boards of the American Marketing Association (AMA) and Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) chapters for the Inland Empire of Southern California. I maintain membership in PRSA.

Partner with me

I love partnering with professionals, managers, and executives in a variety of marketing disciplines and related fields.

I’m very familiar with the typical duties, goals, and challenges of people at all levels of in-house marketing, advertising, and PR, as well as those in agency settings — so I understand how to make you shine so that employers will want to interview you.
