Rebecca is the best! I got early college admissions decision for Stanford University. I could not have done it without her. Her counseling skill is amazing. She alleviated my nervousness and actually made the process fun. Her writing skills, the best. I will be forever grateful!

Our family hired Rebecca to help my son finalize his college essays and to work on his resume. She responded quickly, worked with our busy schedule, and did the job promptly. After visiting with her on the phone, she set our minds at ease about the process. I can recommend her without hesitation. We plan to use her again in the future.

This review is long overdue as I waited to see what types of attention my resume would draw before I left a comment. Since Rebecca completed my resume in a quick and efficient manner, I have had numerous contact opportunities and interview offers since I started actively job searching with the new resume. My old resume was outdated and I received zero attention on my original resume that I created in college. Rebecca's work is impeccable and she deserves every bit of the 5 stars (and then some) that I gave her. The new resume has given me hope that I will find the perfect job more sooner than later. Thank you Rebecca!

Yay! Part of my job is accepting that I don't typically hear back from my clients, which means they have moved on to bigger and better careers. That said, it sure feels good to know I continue to deliver. Thanks for the confirmation. Best, Rebecca Job: Resume & Cover Letter, Training Coordinator / Program Manager

The Edit Guru did a great job editing my graduate admissions writing prompts. She helped me see the view point of the admissions officer and helped me clean up language which was too specialized or 'industry-specific' -- I will definitely reach out again if I have new writing projects.

I am a recent college graduate. The Edit Guru did a great job with my resume. She worked with what I had accomplished during college, instead of dwelling on what I had not done. She was extraordinarily accommodating with her time and paid a great deal of attention to detail. Her template resume is outstanding and was flexible enough to highlight my unique experiences. The Edit Guru also has a tremendous command of the English Language, and her skills are far greater than just resume writing. I give the Edit Guru my highest recommendation.

Thanks, Matt! To clarify, my resume template is proprietary. I have spent years perfecting my highly successful format. There is no substitute for a clean, well-presented document. I appreciate the accolades! I guess my upbringing and education have finally paid dividends! Best, Rebecca Job: Resume & Cover Letter, Social Media Marketing
