"As a family law lawyer with over a decade of experience, I struggled to transition into a new role. I hadn't updated my resume properly in over 8 years and my applications were overlooked until I used Resume People. I was assigned to Ashleigh in the academic team and her expertise was a game-changer. Within 3 weeks of using my new resume I had 4 interviews which led to two great offers!"

What's the difference between Resume People's premium service and a budget resume re-write service?When engaging a professional resume service there's typically two types of company you'll come across: Budget Resume Mills Price Point: $50 - $300 Resume Writers: Usually overseas freelance copywriters Volume: Hundreds of generic resumes per week Project Time: 1 - 2 hours Process: Re-write or edit the existing resume. Work from templates. No direct communication with writer or via email. Usually 1 round of revisions Bespoke, Premier Resume Writers - (Resume People) Price Point: $400 - $1,000 Resume Writers: Directly employed master resume writers & application experts. 100% US based. Minimum 10 years experience Volume: Work with a maximum of 4 clients per week Project Time: 10 - 12 hours Process: Study of target positions. Critique of existing resume and report compiled. In-depth Strategy consultation call. Resume written & design from scratch using only relevant skills, experience and achievements. Resume designed & formatted around the written content. Follow up consultations. Unlimited revisions If you are looking for a fast, budget service, a resume mill may be an option for you. However, the likelihood is you're probably best saving your money and writing it yourself using the free advice contained in our blog. These operators typically outsource to non-native English speaking countries where labour is cheap and quality is poor. They don't include consultation calls, and limit revisions, producing templated, rushed resumes, often littered with mistakes and not an accurate reflection of their clients skills, experience and achievements. With competition for jobs at an all time high, a bespoke, professionally written, ATS optimized resume is the only way to guarantee more interviews. This is the level of service you can expect when engaging Resume People®.
