Career Documentation/Presentation Bundle

Resume:

  • We will take the job-related information you have, edit it and create an ATS-friendly (Applicant Tracking System) document in one of three formats (chronological, functional or hybrid). This document will become your foundation resume.
    • We’ll add a breakout section for featured or key skills and create a professional summary.
      • The foundation resume is not the resume you submit, but it’s your baseline. Think of it as a personal resume buffet, from which you can select the work experience relevant to the opportunity. Creating this document and keeping it updated means never having to start from scratch – no matter the opportunity.
  • From the foundation document, we craft customized resumes tailored to specific opportunities of interest.
    • This provides an instant visual as to the foundation and what’s most important to emphasize on the resume you submit.
  • Training and a takeaway checklist will be provided showing you how to keep your foundation resume current and tailor it to every opportunity.
  • This article can give you more information about the importance formatting plays in making sure your resume is read.

Cover Letter:

  • In addition to cover letters being a requirement for many positions, they are also particularly important for recent graduates who may not have deep professional or relevant work experience to highlight on their resume.
