Resume Writing Services

1. Professional Resume

In today's competitive job market, it is important to stand out from the crowd. Secure more job interviews by engaging one of our expert resume writers to prepare a professional resume for you, tailored for your target role and industry. Your resume writer will ask you to send them links to any roles you wish to apply for. They will then work with you to highlight your relevant skills, experience and achievements.

Your resume will include:

A Career Profile / Summary
Your Key Skills and Achievements
Your Work Experience and Qualifications
Your Project Accomplishments
Other Relevant Information

2. Customised Cover Letter

Many employers won't even consider a candidate who doesn't include a cover letter in their job application. In our experience, applicants who include a tailored cover letter, written in the same writing style as their resume, are more likely to be short-listed for jobs.

Stand out from the crowd by hiring one of our consultants to write a customised cover letter for you that highlights your relevant skills and experience, and details the reasons why you are suitable for the position. We can tailor your cover letter for a specific job, or write a general cover letter for you that you can adjust to suit different positions.

3. Selection Criteria

The majority of government employers require applicants to address selection criteria in their job application. Hire one of our professional writers to help you get short-listed for more jobs! Our writers have extensive experience preparing government job applications and know what it takes to produce a successful application.

Your writer will ask you to provide them with specific examples that demonstrate how you meet each selection criteria. You will be asked to complete a STAR table which involves writing some brief points against the Situation / Tasks / Actions / Result undertaken for each of these examples. Your writer will then wordsmith this information into a logical response that clearly addresses the selection criteria requirements using relevant keywords and phrases.

It is important to note that you will not be able to dictate your STAR examples over the phone, nor will your writer be able to create a generic response without your input as the examples used may be included in discussion at the job interview.

4. LinkedIn Writing Service – Complete Profile

LinkedIn is the world's largest professional network with over 460 million members worldwide and more than 8 million members in Australia. We can help you take full advantage of all the incredible features LinkedIn has to offer, giving you a competitive edge over other candidates.

Your LinkedIn profile writer will start by interviewing you about your career goals, work history and achievements. They will then research your competitors and develop a professional LinkedIn profile for you, tailored for your industry.
