Your resume lists duties, not the projects you delivered
You've delivered projects on time and under budget, led site teams safely and managed multi-million dollar contracts - but your resume describes what you did rather than the outcomes you delivered.
You're moving from site delivery into project or commercial management
Stepping up from site supervision or contract administration into project, construction or commercial management - and your resume needs to position the full breadth of your capability, not just your site background.
You're moving contractor-side to owner-side, or between sectors
Moving from contractor to owner-side or developer, or between residential, commercial and civil construction - and your resume needs to reposition your experience for a different audience and sector.
We specialize in construction hiring.
Construction hiring is driven by delivery, not duties. Projects completed on schedule and budget, safety records, change orders managed and contracts delivered - our specialists position that track record for the roles that value it most.
Project delivery and commercial outcomes positioned precisely
Project value, schedule and budget performance, change orders and safety record (TRIR and lost-time incident rates) - we translate your delivery track record into the language construction hiring managers look for.
ATS-optimized for construction roles
Tier-one general contractors, developers, government and subcontractors all screen construction roles for specific keywords, from OSHA 10/30 and site safety training to trade certifications and project values. We write your resume to pass that automated screening.
Sector-specific language across every area
Residential, commercial, civil, tenant improvement and infrastructure construction all have distinct vocabularies. Our specialists write in the language of your sector.

Site, project, contracts, estimating and commercial roles all require different positioning. We match you with the specialist for your area.

Do your resume writers have experience in construction?
Yes. Since 2011 we've grown our team to 65 specialist resume writers working across 72+ industries, and we've written more than 60,000 resumes for over 920 professions. We match you with the construction specialist with the most relevant experience for your role.

Your first draft is delivered within 3 business days of your consultation call, which is usually scheduled for the next business day after you book. Express 1 and 2 business day turnarounds are also available.
Who will be working on my resume, and how do we communicate?
A specialist in the US job market works with you from start to finish. It starts with a one-to-one consultation by phone or Zoom, typically around an hour. After that you can reach your consultant by phone, Zoom or online chat in your account.
Will my resume get past applicant tracking systems (ATS)?
Yes. Most employers and job boards use ATS software to filter applications, and most applications are filtered by these systems before a recruiter sees them. Every resume we write is ATS-optimized with the keywords and formatting your target roles are screened for.
Can I request revisions?
Yes. Revisions are unlimited. Your consultant delivers requested changes by 5pm the following business day, and we keep going until your resume is exactly right.

Resume People construction specialist vs generic and AI resume services.
Construction resumes live and die on delivery outcomes. Project value, schedule and budget performance, safety metrics and change orders need to be framed precisely - that takes a specialist, not a generic writer or AI tool.
