Hey Leeza, I'm so excited I received a job offer last week Thursday. Leeza, I also have to let you know I had four interviews last month with my new career marketing kit you crafted for me.

I listened and did everything you said and it paid off, it took 5 weeks for me to find employment. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING!!! Regards, Kim A.
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Here's how the industry works and what you should look for when selecting a resume writing service: *Avoid scams: Websites that claim to have reviewed the BEST or TOP 10 Resume Writing Services are advertising scams. The BEST Resume Writing Services get their clients Interviews Fast. *Avoid the template factories: They use "cookie cutter" programs to make your resume. They will not get you interviews. Professional Writers always customize and write resumes from "scratch." One way to identify a template factory is by their very low prices typically under $300. Remember, you ultimately get what you pay for. *How does their web site look? If they cannot organize their web site and make it look attractive, then they can't do that for your resume. However a good writer with a terrible website may exist somewhere. *They should be certified: One of the industry standards is the Certified Professional Resume Writer (CPRW) designation awarded by the PARW/CC organization. *Make sure you view samples of their work: Look to see if they are actually focusing on skills and accomplishments as opposed to producing pretty resumes that just list job duties. *Check out their resume writing process and make sure you get to speak to someone: This allows the writer to ask insightful questions that highlight your skills and achievements that will impress employers. The better resume writing firms will use both a detailed questionnaire and a phone consultation. *Get a free resume evaluation: If they don't offer one, then they are probably too weak to provide a good critique, or they rely on high volume and are one of the "template factories."
