Resume Writing
Let me help you get the resume you need for the job you want! I’ve been writing and editing professional resumes since 2013. Choose from one of three packages below (each one includes editing, a sample cover letter you can easily change to your specifications, and FREE resources for your continued job search success):
- Silver
- I will edit your completed resume and provide you a second, optional template/version of your resume $100
- Gold
- I will help you complete your resume (or write it from scratch after you complete an intake) and provide you with two professional versions *(this is also the best option if you’d like two different resumes tailored for two unique positions) $150

- Same as the Gold package, but it will include three professional versions of your resume and an edit of your cover letter. You may choose the template I provide, tailor it to your needs, and I will edit it $250

⭐Discounts⭐
I offer 10% off for US active, reserve, and national guard servicemembers, as well as military veterans. 💖🤍💙
I also lower the fee for returning customers who want a second-level edit on the same project (example: if you hire me for a developmental edit on your manuscript and, after making changes based on feedback, you’d like a line edit, I will work out a lower price for you; the total discount depends on the length and complexity of the project).
