What are the benefits of having my resume professionally written?
-
The rise in technology and hiring automation has made it easier than ever for employers to find the right employees for their companies, but it has also increased the complexity of the entire job search process. This presents a whole new challenge when it comes to resume writing – your resume must now appeal not only to hiring professionals, but also to applicant tracking systems.
Unless you are well-versed in the nuances of the hiring process and what employers are looking for, it can be easy to miss the mark with your resume. Investing in professional help will ease your job search and set you on the right path for career success.
A professionally written resume from us…
…makes you more valuable in the eyes of both applicant tracking systems and hiring managers.
Our professional resume writers know the ins and outs of how applicant tracking systems work, and will be able to structure your resume accordingly to guarantee that your resume gets seen by actual recruiters and hiring managers.
Having been hiring professionals themselves, our professional writers also understand what employers are looking for and will be able to craft a resume that showcases you as an ideal fit for the jobs you’re targeting.
…sets you apart from other job candidates.
Each job opening get a total of 250 applications on average. Finding a way to rise above your competition is crucial, and this really comes down to how well your resume is written. Many job seekers who write their resume themselves lack the X-factor on their resume needed to stand out among the sea of job applications out there.
…saves you time – the most precious thing you’ve got.
It’s cliché but true: time is money. The hours upon hours, if not days and weeks, that you spend writing a resume that may or may not be effective could be better spent elsewhere.
By investing in professionals to handle your resume, you are able to get a better-written resume, save yourself the hassle of writing it, and then use your new resume to get more interview opportunities and ultimately find a job more quickly.

How does our resume writing process work?
-
Our resume writing process can be broken down into these steps:
1. Fill out our intake form
Start by filling out our online questionnaire, which will ask you about your work history, career goals, current resume, and other relevant information. This allows us to assign you to the most appropriate resume writer for your specific situation.
2. Work with your writer
You’ll communicate with your writer via both phone and email to nail down all the specific details necessary to write a top-tier resume for you.
3. Receive your initial draft
Once your writer has all the information that is needed, he or she will complete a draft of your resume and send it over for you to review.
4. Perfect your resume (and other documents)
Finally, your writer will work on perfecting your resume (along with your cover letter, LinkedIn profile, etc… if applicable) by addressing any concerns you may have had with the original draft.

How does ResumeGo differ from other resume writing companies?
-
Just like how you must set yourself apart from other job applicants, we set ourselves apart from other resume services with…
…a more collaborative process with your writer.
Other resume services either don’t allow you to speak at all with your resume writer or only let you communicate with your writer via email.
Our service doesn’t have any of these restrictions. We strive for a process where you work in tandem with your writer and are able to reach out to him or her via phone, email, or any other form of communication.
…a data-driven approach.
ResumeGo is the only resume service that continually performs in-house research on ways job seekers can optimize their hireability and improve their resumes.
Our cutting edge research has been covered extensively by national media outlets such as Business Insider, The Wall Street Journal, CNBC, and Fortune, to name a few.
…a money back guarantee.
Along with being the only resume writing company to conduct frequent resume research, we’re also one of the few resume services that offer a money back guarantee under which you can get a refund if you are unsatisfied with your writer’s work.
…unlimited revisions for up to 2 weeks.
Most resume services simply allow for at most 1-2 revisions (if any at all) after you receive the initial draft of your resume. That process can be very restricting, especially if they simply do a rushed job on each rewrite.
This is why we offer as many revisions as you’d like for up to 2 weeks, so you can thoroughly flesh out any kinks in your resume with your writer without having to worry that the next revision you get will be your last.
…understanding of applicant trackers.
The majority of our resume writing staff has direct experience with using applicant trackers and know how to optimize resumes for these resume scanners. We even have our own resume checker that anyone can use.

What qualifications do ResumeGo writers have?
-
Our team consists of certified resume writers and career coaches, current and former recruiters, and specialists who focus on individual industries.
Every writer on our team has written hundreds of resumes for clients and has in-depth knowledge of how the hiring process works.
Only the top 3% of resume writers who apply for a position with us are even considered for a spot in our writer network.
-
How does my resume writer collaborate with me?
-
Once we assign a resume writer to you, your writer will contact you via email to set up an initial phone consultation (if you so choose) during which he or she will go over your current resume (if you have one) and discuss what types of jobs you’re looking to apply for. With that information about your work history and goals, your writer will formulate a strategy for how to write your new resume.
From there, you’ll stay in constant communication with your writer until you’ve received a final copy of your resume (and other documents, if applicable).
-
Where do I go to place my order?
-
To work with us, simply select a resume package from our Order Page and continue on to the checkout process.
-
What resume package should I go with – Premium, Professional, or Executive?
-
The majority of our clients go with our Professional Package, which comes with both a new resume and a LinkedIn profile rewrite.
If you already have a fully-functional and well-written LinkedIn profile or simply don’t care to incorporate LinkedIn as part of your job search strategy, then the Premium Package is likely your best bet, as it comes with only a new resume.
If you’re one of the few individuals who have over 25 years of experience and are also applying to C-suite level job positions, then the Executive Package would be the most appropriate option to choose.
