About

I am Arlen Crawford, Resume Writer and Employment Consultant. My background includes working as a director of recruiting, executive search recruiter, and contract recruiter, as well as business owner and operator. I specialize in writing resumes with key word optimization to get through an Applicant Tracking System (ATS), career transitions from one discipline or industry to another, re-entering the workforce after time away, attracting recruiters’ attention, and enhancing your presentation (standing out). I sincerely enjoy helping clients prepare for their job searches to enable them to improve their work situation, to better enhance their career progression, their financial possibilities, and their general happiness with their working life. Many of my clients have reported great success with a more results-oriented resume. They have gotten more responses leading to more interviews, and ultimately better career choices. I also offer interview counseling and job search tips for greater success. Also, I would like to emphasize that I do not charge extra for a cover letter, thank you letter, or linked-in help. I also provide counseling as needed concerning your job search. We also offer quick turnaround of approximately 48-72 business hours. Please see reviews for clients' kind words concerning their satisfaction with the process.

Prompt and professional describes Arlen! He took my existing resume, made some tweaks, polished it up, packaged it with some helpful hints, and took the time to answer my questions and walk me through everything over the phone. I'm excited to start circulating my resume, and I'll update my review based on how that process goes. Love the process, looking forward to the results!

I have worked for the same company for more than 30 years. Consequently, I haven't written a resume since I was in college. When I decided to start looking, I wrote my own resume and didn't get a single call. I thought there must be something wrong with me, but I realized there was something wrong with my resume. I had reservations about working with someone who I couldn't meet in person, but quickly realized that this kind of work is no different than distance learning. Arlen was the quickest to respond, and was engaged with me throughout the process. He could not have done anything more to satisfy me as a customer, and I left almost feeling we had become friends. Since posting the resume he produced, along with my LinkedIn profile that he updated, I have been getting regular calls. No interviews yet, but there has been a measurable change in results. Thank you for your fine work Arlen, and I wish you blessings in your future!

I had a good resume but it still didn't articulate my abilities well or have the panache needed to catch a hiring manager's eye. With Arlen's experience and people skills, he was able to ask me the right questions to understand my abilities and objective and ediited my resume with the reader's goals in mind. His initial call was same day and when we scheduled follow calls and reviews he was prompt and efficient. What really set Arlen apart was that I didn't just get a resume makeover, he also answered countless questions on job searches and gave me specific advice towards applying and interviewing for positions.
