Resume Writer Recs?

DH is sick of not having any luck finding a job and he wants to hire a professional resume-writer to spruce his up. 

Has anyone done this?  Can you reccommend anyone?

Re: Resume Writer Recs?

  • I didn't even know that was an option!  So, no, no experience.

    Has he considered a temp agency like daisy used?  

  • Yeah, we've looked at temp agencies.  But most of them are clerical - which he's not exactly qualified for - or manual requiring certain certifications he doesn't have.  Sad

    he should do them anyway...there are tons of customer experience ones out there that you need like zero qualifications for. and the job i got is completely different than what i've done in the past...yeah i'm experienced with the stuff but it's not something i did as my job. I swear half the battle with temp agencies is getting in there, interviewing with them, and showing them that you're a normal human being. tell him to go to volt, aerotek, and maybe even kelly services. it takes like 15 minutes on each site to fill out the application, then he'll get daily emails with new job postings!!!

    volt wanted me to come in and do this customer service job..answering phones (After i already took the job with aerotek)....it started at 4am, but was only 3 days a week and the pay was decent...and i haven't done true customer service in YEARS. i swear it's worth it!!!!

    i don't know much about professional resume writers, but i did have my old boss look at mine, so i know a little what to look for...if you want to send it my way, i'd be happy to take a look at it! 

    ps --- see you soon!!!! :)
