LANDED THE 1ST JOB I APPLIED FOR. "My friend Bill had his resume done by Julie Marseu. I was so impressed I would have hired him right there on the spot. I asked Julie to do my resume as well, and landed the first job I applied for as a Senior Account Executive with a major radio group." Gary Mason, Senior Account Executive

4 APPLICATIONS, 3 INTERVIEWS, 2 CONTRACTS OFFERED. "As a training contractor, I must make an immediate impact on potential clients. After sending out the cover letter, resume and biography that Julie wrote for me 4 times in the last two months, I received 3 interviews with Fortune 500 companies and have been offered 2 contracts. I'd like to think I received these contracts because I am just that good but these opportunities were a direct result of what information was initially presented to the HR people. Thanks again." Molly Ayotte, Corporate Trainer, PeopleSmart Communication Inc.

WORTH EVERY PENNY. "I highly recommend Julie at HighImpactResumes.com. Julie has written several versions of my resume and wow … what a fabulous job. I generally go after high end writing contracts and with only one exception, every time I have submitted my resume, I have been invited to an interview and been offered a contract. I think we are simply too close to our own talents to find the “gold nuggets” and sell the “sizzle.” That’s what Julie does … she is undoubtedly one of the best resume writers on the planet! And though her services don’t come cheap … they are worth every penny." Melanie Rockett, Editor, Freelance News

4 PROMOTIONS IN THE LAST 3 YEARS. "Julie has been developing my resume since I began my career as a teacher. Six years ago, I used her resume to get an interview for a teaching position with a major school board. Since then, Julie has assisted me to craft my resume as I have assumed progressively senior positions within my board.. I've gotten a job every time I've applied -- 4 promotions in the last 3 years." Scott Tumbach, Consultant, Early Learning

 

 


At High Impact Resumes, we create powerful resumes that position our clients to win job interviews and top salaries in today's competitive job market. Over the last 25 years, we have worked with over 9,000 clients in a wide range of occupations, including sales, IT, accounting, construction, oil & gas, trades and management. Our clients include everyone from new university/college grads to top executives.

If you are looking for a promotion or are considering making the move to another organization, it's probably to your advantage to have the best possible resume you can afford...especially since many employers are receiving hundreds and sometimes thousands of resumes for every position advertised.

Did you know that 90% of all resumes are screened out in the first 30 seconds? Ask any recruiter, and they'll tell you that if they can't find the experience and skills they're looking for immediately, you've probably lost their interest. I know. My name is Julie Marseu and I worked as a recruiter for 7 years, hiring hundreds of positions for both private and public sector organizations.

This is what I've noticed. Qualified people with poor or average resumes are often bypassed in favor of less qualified applicants with more powerful resumes. Why does this happen? Because the average resume doesn't communicate key achievements and skills effectively, if at all. Consequently, they fail to impress and end up in the "Not Suitable" pile.

For example, one of my clients (a top sales performer) came to me because he had sent out dozens of resumes and couldn't understand why he had gotten very little response from prospective employers, and none from any employment agencies. He had this job description on his self-written resume: "Responsible for sales, customer service and terrritory management." He didn't bother to list any achievements because he didn't want to be perceived as bragging. During our consultation, I asked him some very pointed questions, which revealed the following:

  • He had established and built a new territory from $0 to $5 million in annual sales within 3 years of joining the company.
  • He currently ranked #1 in sales volume in the entire company, outperforming 347 other sales professionals across the country.
  • He had played a key role in taking his branch from #12 to #2 nationally, outperforming branches in much larger cities.

Now imagine the impact of this new information on recruiters and potential employers. If you think he immediately became a hot commodity, you're right. In fact, he had 2 interviews lined up within hours of receiving his new High Impact Resume, and 3 more within the next 48 hours. Two of these were with recruiters who had previously not even responded to his application. Can you imagine how thrilled he was? And how much better he felt about himself?

Unfortunately, we see this type of thing all the time. The fact is that many self-written and low-cost "professional" resumes cannot possibly compete in today's competitive job market because they are missing the most important content.

The good news is that if your resume is not getting you the interviews you deserve, you can probably do better. All you need is a high impact resume.

As the President and Executive Resume Writer at High Impact Resumes, I take pride in producing powerful resumes that position my clients to win. If your resume is not doing that for you, maybe it's time to do something about it.

Why not get the ball rolling today?
