A
strong resume and cover letter combination is your only chance to land an
interview. The average hiring manager will review over 1,000 resumes to fill a single
position listed on popular job sites like Monster.com or in the classifieds
sections of major newspapers. Competition for jobs with the federal government can be even more severe.
Faced with this daunting task, the hiring manager
looks for reasons not to interview you and may even use computerized
resume scanning software like Resumix to screen out 90% of the resumes submitted.
A
ResumeEdge resume can ...
Enhance
your lifetime earning potential. We have helped clients add $40,000 to their
annual income and over $1 million to their lifetime earning potential.
Undermarketing yourself can be the biggest mistake you ever make.
Dramatically
increase your resume success rate and secure you more interviews than you
ever thought possible. We will make your resume stand out from the
six-inch stack of homemade resumes on a busy hiring manager's desk.
Shorten
your time spent searching for a job. According to the US Dept. of
Labor, the
average job search time is longer than three months. The time saved
searching for a job translates into tens of thousands of dollars in salary
for many of our unemployed clients.
Eliminate
the screen-out factors that relegate many resumes to the trash. Do you have
a typo? Do you use the word "I"? Do you address the employer's
value proposition? Do you sound like a boss's nightmare? You would be surprised how many screen-out factors the
average resume contains.
Ensure
you rank highly in a computerized resume tracking system like Resumix or
Monster. Currently, half of all mid-sized and almost all large companies
scan resumes into a computerized tracking system, which is searched for
keywords by hiring managers.
Put you
in control of your interview by steering your interviewer away from
potential weaknesses. Interviewers love to focus on resume liabilities,
including extended time off, frequent job switching, career change, etc. We write your resume to
minimize potential liabilities and showcase your strengths.
