If your social
work
resume...
is going to be
fighting for
attention in a
highly
competitive
market, or if
you're finding
it difficult to
express your
job
qualifications
in an unbiased
- yet
promotional -
manner, a
professional
resume writer
might be able
to help.
Do
you absolutely
need a
pro?
No – if you've
got time and a
bit of talent,
you can write a
resume that can
compete in the
marketplace.
But the
best
professional
resume writers
bring something
to the table
that's hard to
come by:
marketing
insight.
There's a real
skill in
selling a
candidate to an
often cynical
audience (i.e.
recruiters and
hiring
officials) with
nothing more
than words on a
page.
As a former
resume
writer...
you should know
that 99% of the
time I was able
to improve the
resumes that
were sent to
me. Sometimes
dramatically.
So, I'm acutely
aware of the
benefit to
having a pro on
your side in
your job
search.
Although I
don't write
resumes myself
anymore, I've
taken a hard
look at some of
the more
popular resume
writing
services on the
Web. Prices
range from $89
to $249. But
like everything
else in life,
there are some
good services
out there, and
some you should
probably
avoid.
If you're
interested,
here's how I
rate the Web's
most popular
Resume
Writing
Services.
