- Lead defense counsel at Fortune 100 financial services giant
Read More“I think the résumé is really good and I could have never gotten here on my own. You took a gobbledygook of information and turned it into a story. I thought the cover letter was amazing to be quite honest with you. I would never have come up on it on my own, and yet it’s exactly what I wanted to say and how I wanted to say it. My goodness. I’m in light years better shape. Thank you for all that you’ve done. I’m really glad I’ve been working with you and I want to continue working with you.”

- L&E lawyer transitioning from government to the private sector
“I was so excited to hear about you! There are all these places that do career counseling, but they just don’t do the résumé writing and they don’t have legal expertise. I’m so glad I called you! I was anxious before the appointment, but this is a level of wordsmithing at light speed I’ve never seen. And the way this résumé is written is just so much better.“
- Former Air Force Captain shifting to in-house roles
Read More“I’ve got to tell you, I like the career portfolio [CV, CV addendum, and cover letter] a lot. I’m pleased with all of it. I like the structure. I like the way you broke the information up and used bullets, and I like your wording. The CV has impact from the first page. And I can see you really did your homework. I don’t know how you did it, but you worked it! Every word has value. Trying to do it myself was a fool’s errand.
The cover letter is also a really, really helpful tool that I will be able to build on for future applications. It sets out a structure and lets me know how and where to add information for different job applications.
And I already got great feedback from the retained recruiter. You did everything I needed and I’m in a really good place.”
