Standard Résumé Package
One price covers everything for the Résumé
The first thing we’ll do is be sure we understand your communication style and unique interpersonal strengths; so, as your ghost writer, I'll be able to write in your voice. You’ll complete a brief--less than 20 minutes--behavioral assessment consisting of a questionnaire, response form, and evaluation.
Next, I’ll gather your chronological history and ask you some interview-type questions to see what type of quantifiable results and success stories you should showcase.
By the way, the assessment is not a test; there are no right or wrong responses. It’s the best way for you to tell me what I need to know about you. I'll tell you more about it before you access it.
