a dramatic improvement

“​This is incredibly helpful. I’m watching you like, ‘These are all great ideas, I wonder why I never thought of that.’ I’ve done a lot of reading résumés and interviewing at [top ten 10 law firm], and I have to say this is a dramatic improvement. It's much more organized.​”

money very well spent

“This is money very well spent. The things we talking about in the résumé are things that are going to come up at every stage of the interview process as well. I need to be able to speak more eloquently about the things I’ve done. But I’ve had trouble in the past because I couldn't put it all together. So figuring out this organization is very timely. And I really enjoy doing this with you. I really like the way the résumé’s ordered. I’ve been working with chaos, but it almost naturally fell into an order now. It’s kind of genius.”

I wish I had met you years earlier.

“​Thanks for doing the résumé​. It really tells the story, which is a difficult thing because my path isn’t linear; it’s very broad. But it all rings true to me. Overall, it’s exactly what I had hoped it would be. And I’ve told many people I couldn’t have done it that way. I wouldn’t even have thought of doing it that way. I’ve been telling folks that I wish I had met you years earlier.”

For years, I’ve looked—on paper—like a hot a mess.

“For years, I’ve looked—on paper—like a hot a mess. I'm so grateful to you already. I've really found this process very valuable. It seems much more fun to think of and write my résumé as story about my career, rather than using the same old boring résumé format and language everyone else uses. I'm excited to continue working on my own.”

I got a job within 6 weeks

“Shauna Bryce -- she helped me craft a résumé after 5 years as a SAHM (stay at home mom). I was a lawyer and she did an amazing job marketing me. I am tempted to hire her again now that I’ve been back to work a while to help refresh it. She’s really good at what she does. Highly recommend. Shauna wasn’t cheap - especially since I wasn’t working at the time, but was worth it to me. She was interesting because she was able to translate my unique working experiences. I got a job within 6 weeks of switching up my résumé. She did an excellent job.”

I found my dream job

“I’m happy to report I found my dream job (left the in-house legal department) and now I’m on the business side of development, in the city where I want to retire, and with the company that is the best fit for me culturally and intellectually. And I did all this through networking, patience, and developing a job position that did not exist six months ago. Cheers.”
