Question 1

What kind of clients do you work with?

Accepted Answer

I work with individuals in a range of industries, including financial services, technology, government, manufacturing, entertainment, education, public policy, consulting, and healthcare. My typical client is a mid- to senior-level professional or executive in finance, law, marketing, sales, communications, digital transformation, program management, business development, and operations.

I currently work with individuals in the U.S., looking for employment in the states (what is customary to include in resumes or CVs varies considerably based on your geographic location).

Question 2

Who will I be working with?

Accepted Answer

Me! I plan on keeping my business small and personal, which means that I will be your sole point of contact, including all coaching calls and material development.

Question 3

What do I need to do before I get started?

Accepted Answer

First, contact me, so we can set up a free consultation. During that call, we'll review your goals and timeline before I put together a proposal. To do that effectively, I'll need a current version of your resume and at least one job listing you're targeting — or one that represents the kind of role you're aiming for next.

Once you engage me, I'll send you a custom questionnaire to complete before our onboarding call. It's not a generic questionnaire; it's tailored to your specific background. It covers some basic questions I have after reviewing your resume, and asks you to start thinking about the career highlights, defining experiences, and milestones that best showcase your unique value. Having thought through those questions in advance means we can skip the basics on our call and spend our time on the strategic conversations that actually move the needle.

I also ask you to gather any additional materials you think could be useful to me in crafting your new career materials:  performance reviews, old bios or resumes, even press releases about your work. This "data dump" gives me multiple vantage points on your career and helps me build a stronger, more authentic professional narrative on your behalf.

Question 4

How much do your services cost?

Accepted Answer

The typical client investment ranges from $1,500 to $2,500. After an initial consultation, I'll prepare a customized proposal and quote based on the scope and extent of the work required. I personally handle all writing and coaching. Most of my work happens off the phone as I draft and refine your materials. For reference, a signature executive resume rewrite takes me 10 to 15 hours to complete.Every package includes 1:1 Zoom calls with me throughout the process and multiple rounds of revisions to ensure your final materials meet your goals. You'll know exactly what to expect before we begin.

Question 5

Do you create academic CVs or resumes suitable for applications to USA Jobs (the U.S. federal job portal)?

Accepted Answer

I do not prepare academic CVs or federal job applications as they have very technical requirements and industry-specific conventions.

Question 6

Do you provide samples?

Accepted Answer

I’m happy to provide sample resumes upon request.
