Is a Resume Writing Service Worth It?

Writer's picture: OliveraOlivera

Are you swimming and drowning in the sea of job search and resume writing information online?


You are not alone.


Every job seeker I speak with is puzzled by these questions about resume writing:


❓ What format, colours, and font should I use?

❓ Which sections do I need to have?

❓ Do I need to have a photo?

❓ How to present my experience, skills, qualifications, and accomplishments best?

❓ How to use keywords?

❓ Will the ATS eat my resume (👀 ?!?)

❓ Do I need to include personal info?


And for many, this mission seems impossible for various reasons, so they choose to work with a professional.


However - it's crucial to choose a professional from an HR background.


There are 3 main steps when doing resume rewriting services research:


1️⃣ Research the professional background of a coach, look for client testimonials, reviews and recommendations

Find out if there’s HR or recruiting experience, entrepreneurship, or a background in your industry, that would be beneficial for your unique needs. See if the coaching fees are transparent and understand exactly what you’re receiving for the cost.


2️⃣ Ask your friends, colleagues, family, or former clients for recommendations and referrals

Start from your inner circle - do you know anyone who used career coaching services recently? If so, ask them about their experience. Also, check the testimonials from former clients and contact them for further information.


3️⃣ Trust your instinct when choosing a career coach or a resume writer

The coaching relationship is based on trust. Almost all of my clients come either from referrals or after following me on social media for a while. If you are interested in working with a specific coach, check out their posts, comments, and the way they interact with people online. Listen to your gut and go for it!


And, before you decide what is best for you, you need to know the PROS and CONS of working with a professional on your resume or your career development.

Alessandro Lasi, Director, Business Process Reengineering at Johnson & Johnson, Switzerland

When you hire Olivera to brush up your Personal Branding you will get significantly more than any new resume!

In finding a new role within your company or at a new company what you really need is an image and a brand that others believe in. This is marketing 101 and Olivera will bring that to you.

Not only did she redo my resume that opened a lot of doors for me, she re-branded my LinkedIn profile and how I reached out to others; she also supported me all the way through my job transition to a new company, and was precious to set up my professional blog.

I highly recommend her services, you won't be disappointed.

Ofelia Ruiz, Regional Executive at Ricoma, USA

I'm very happy to give my recommendation for Olivera. She is a great professional and an excellent source of information with her insightful postings. She not only delivers a very high quality product, but her response and availability, makes her an outstanding service, together with her friendly personality. I will not hesitate to recommend her to all my fellow colleagues.

Marco Fuentes, Director Aerospace at Howmet, Mexico

Olivera is a remarkable Woman of great character and I would not hesitate to recommend her. In particular, Olivera has genuine talent and passion for adding value, leadership, training and giving support to executives.

Thashen Pillay, Turnaround Manager
at Neste, Netherlands

I recently had the pleasure of working with Olivera to improve my CV and LinkedIn profile after an unexpected occurrence in my career. I thought I had a decent CV already, but Olivera took it to a higher, more polished level. It was an absolute pleasure working with her!

 

Olivera's quick turnaround time on emails and document reviews is outstanding and her professional tips and expert guidance are extremely insightful and helpful - these were the things I valued the most. I could not be more pleased with the outcome. I would definitely recommend Olivera to anyone looking to take the next step in their careers by building and improving their online personal brand.

Cristopher Slauter, Senior Engineer at Amazon, USA

I recently had the pleasure to work with Olivera to revamp my resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile. After having worked with other coaches and resume writers previously without great success, I wasn't sure what to expect and was admittedly cautiously optimistic at best.

I could not have been more pleased with Olivera's approach, style, and great attention to detail ensuring I was on board with every change regardless of it's importance. She demonstrated a tenacity in her drive to produce results quickly knowing that the longer it took, the longer I wasn't applying with my best possible brand.

I am absolutely satisfied with the results of working with Olivera. On previous attempts at similar services, it always felt like I had overpaid for services that were underwhelming, and that I was simply a fee. With Olivera, not only were her rates surprisingly reasonable for the results delivered, I felt like I was working with a partner that was genuinely invested in my success..
