Resumé Writing Help (Editorial)

Resumé writing services abound on the Internet.  Most job sites have partnered with one of them to sell job seekers a professionally written package of resumé and cover letter.  Up until recently, BroadbandCareers.Com offered such a service -- with a twist.  Instead of being a virtual "resumé factory", our service featured a writer and an editor who actually hailed from this industry and, consequently, offered clients industry-specific experience in crafting a document package that would get results.

Eventually, however, we realized that we were doing our career-seeker client's homework for them.  Because your resumé is your calling card and so much more, it demands your absolute focus and determination to produce a document that is truly representative of your experience, your unique skill-sets and your career objectives.  It is a record of where you've been, what you know and where you want to go.  In this endeavor, no one can represent you better than yourself.

Therefore, I highly recommend that you produce this document on your own using one of the best-selling books on the subject.  Our favorite happens to be "The Perfect Resume" (Third Edition) by Susan Ireland.  With this book as a guide, and your own personal insight into your career accomplishments, we are confident that you can produce an effective resumé with which to effectively convey your value to a prospective employer.  If you're a bit intimidated, that's okay; once you have finished it you will be that much more confident about yourself and your ability to excel in the interviews that will follow!

In conclusion, it is imperative in today's email-centric world of business communication that you project to a prospective employer your own ability to effectively communicate in this preferred medium.  What better way than through your own resumé, cover letter and follow-up email?  No truer observation has ever been made that you only get one chance to make a good first impression.  Make those good first impressions on your own - as a result of your focus, determination and preparation - and you will be better for it.  We guarantee it!
