1) I refer to guidance that is company wide, but specific to my business group. How would you say this? Business line wide guidance sounds funny, no?
2) I use the phrases "review" and "provide feedback" twice - any better ways of saying this? The thesaurus isn't giving me anything that I like.
3) Is there anyone here who deals with resumes often?

Re: Resume Question 2.0
A.) sounds very funny to me. I don't know what you are trying to say. This could be an issue with specifics to your industry though. Are there any other financial girls on here that could help out?
I used to work in HR communications so I know a deal about resumes and such but the specifics of finance are Greek to me. I'll help where I can though.
Instead of provide feedback... counseled? Advised?
As to the first, you know how you might refer to something at company-wide? Like, "that's a company-wide policy"? Well, my company has over 70 different business lines. So, if we're talking about policies (for example), the policy would cover my entire business line, coast to coast, but wouldn't necessarily be company wide - only business line or business group wide. Okay - that's definitely more confusing that I thought. Maybe I just say group wide? I need another word for business-line.
Would you mind if I emailed you a copy of this thing when I'm done Gerrie? I could use a second set of eyes.

1 - what about division wide to make it clear that you are only referring to your specific division not the entire company
2 - It is ok to say things like review and provide feedback more than once because you are describing your duties and most hiring managers can tell when you're trying to "smarten up" your resume by using phrases you wouldn't normally use to describe something.
Although if you really want to change them you can use analyze for review and assess for provide feedback. Those words might not work at all - its hard to change a word in a sentence when you don't know the whole sentence
3 - I write resumes for proposals
I do HR and recruiting.Feel free to send me your resume and I'll give you some feedback. My main piece of advice is to include accomplishments. Meaning, explain how your "advising" improved processes and procedures. I.E. Gave feedback on projects that led to increased productivity in blank business group.
Do you have the RAK list? I'm on it. If not, PM me and I'll give yo my email addy.

Andrea- Joe's in management in banking so he looks at resumes and interviews people all the time. I hadn't even thought of this until now! Plus he was a writing major in college so he's pretty good at this stuff.
If you want to ask him specifics, email me and I'll forward it to him.
I don't mind at all.
my email is on the RAK list
