Default Looking for resume writer

My sister has the idea that she needs someone professional to write her resume. Anyone out there do that? Or know someone that does? Let me know, thanks.

I wasn't getting calls for positions I thought I would be perfect for, so I decided to have my resume professionally done.

I found a company called Wordscapes through the BBB. The guy who owns the company was a professor, as well as, a writer for the CBC. He did a phenomenal job. Within two weeks of sending out resumes, I had 6 job interviews.

I would highly recommend this company and have to several friends.

Funnily enough, I am losing my job at the end of November as my boss has decided to close the company but this really is for my sister. Thanks rico and CC, I will pass that info along to my sister.

Total cost including consultation, two-page resume & cover letter, along with, hard copies and email copies...$180.

Very reasonable in my opinion. I found a job that I love and probably wouln't have even received an interview without the fantastic job that David from Wordscapes did for me.

Just wondering, how long ago did you get this done? I just checked the wordscapes website and the price for a 2 page resume and cover letter package is now $225

Mine was done almost a year ago, which explains the price increase(but that does seem pretty steep for a year ago). Give David a call and tell him you were referred by a friend. He may cut you a deal.
