Management Resumes

You're on the fast track to success. You might be in charge of people, projects, budgets, sales performance, cost control, product launches, service delivery, operational effectiveness, productivity or all the above. Currently, you are a:

• General Manager or President of a small business
• Operations Manager, Branch Manager or Store Manager
• Customer Service Manager
• Sales Manager or Marketing Manager
• Project Manager or Team Leader
• Human Resources Manager
• Purchasing Manager or Materials Manager
• or a junior to mid-level manager in another field

Regardless of which category you fit into, you are planning to move up. Now all you need is the right marketing tool to open the door to the next level. That's where we come in.

At High Impact Resumes, we've helped countless people to climb the corporate ladder. We have a reputation for creating powerful resumes that win interviews, even when the competition is stiff. In fact, we've had thousands of referrals from clients and recruiters over the last 21 years, due to the exceptional success of our resumes.

If you've spent any time doing a job search recently, you will know how competitive today's job market is, especially for people in management roles. Today, employers routinely receive hundreds or even thousands of resumes for every job ad. Of these, they typically short-list and interview between 3 and 10 applicants. This means that well over 90% of all resumes end up in the "Not Suitable" pile -- often because they are missing key content!

Sometimes, we get inquiries from people who can't understand why they didn't get an interview, even though they were well qualified for a certain position. Invariably, their resumes sound something like this:

• Managed a retail store, with responsibility for staffing, operations, sales, promotions, customer service and reporting.

By focusing on their responsibilities (and leaving out their accomplishments altogether), these people do not differentiate themselves in any way from the hundreds of other people who also have experience in those areas. In other words, their resumes are adequate, but not very informative and definitely not impressive by today's standards. That's why "average" doesn't get results.

What do the winners do differently? They go to an experienced, high-end professional who invests the time necessary to pull out and position their achievements for maximum impact.

Compare the difference when the above responsibilities statement is changed to reflect key achievements like these:

• Reversed a declining sales trend from -15% to +25% growth within 1 year of taking charge of a home improvement retail branch that currently generates revenues of $9 million annually.
• Increased customer satisfaction ratings from 73% to 87% within 6 months.
• Instituted programs that increased employee productivity by 30% and reduced employee turnover from 100% to 20% annually.
• Restructured branch operations to achieve a 25% reduction in annual operating costs during a time of double-digit sales growth.

Now imagine the impact of these achievements on recruiters and corporate decision-makers!

That's why it's so important to go to a knowledgeable professional who knows what it takes to win interviews at the management level -- and who invests the time necessary to produce a truly outstanding product!

At High Impact Resumes, we take pride in creating resumes that are rated among the very best in North America. As a result, we have had thousands of referrals from recruiters and past clients who have been impressed with our work.

How are we different from the competition?

Our President and Executive Resume Writer, Julie Marseu (B.Sc.), is an experienced recruiter and a former employment agency owner. Since 1986, she has authored more than 8,000 resumes and countless marketing pieces. Her experience in interviewing over 10,000 people is a tremendous asset in brain-storming content with clients. Having managed a successful organization herself, she also understands the business world well enough to ask intelligent questions about pertinent accomplishments.

Unlike many of our competitors, who rely on their clients to fill out a general questionnaire by e-mail, we brainstorm with our management level clients for an average of 2 hours, either in person or by telephone. During this consultation session, we ask probing questions to uncover our clients' career goals, experiences, strengths, management philosophy and most impressive achievements. Then we put many more hours into writing and crafting each resume, until it passes our high quality standards! For more details on our process, please see Our Process.

If you are qualified -- and motivated -- and you think your current resume isn't doing you justice, maybe it's time to take action.
