We want to tell your story with a professional resume

With his new Successful Resume, Zevi Kramer, technology expert and leadership trainer landed an interview with the world’s leading performance management firm Gallup. He emailed us to say “The difference between you and others is that others rearrange. You created me. You showed what’s possible”

We love how Zevi articulated the essence of Successful Resumes because it reflects exactly what we aim to do for each and every client.

Nicole was extremely warm, efficient and professional. I have already highly recommended Nicole to others, she took my documents rebadged them and produced outstanding results.

Hi Lucy, just letting you know I’m starting an Engineering Drafting role with Sea-Struct. I wish to offer my sincere thanks for your hard work with the preparation of my resume. The HR and engineering staff were impressed with its presentation. I believe it was the key to me getting an interview – Notch another one up for Successful Resumes! Once again, many thanks.

Hi Martin, This is to thank you for the great job you did with my resume. I landed a position in the mining business, as we targeted… The work I am doing is the sort of activity I had in mind to use the skill sets you highlighted so effectively in the resume. The interview process was significantly enhanced, with the resume acting as a very effective marketing platform from which I could project a well presented story. I think this may be the most powerful aspect of the well-crafted document you created. Well done, and thank you Martin – I will definitely be recommending you to more friends and colleagues who may need your services.

Hi John, Just a quick message to let you know that following my presentation of my new CV and subsequent interview, I have been awarded a supervisory position with John Holland at the new Perth Children’s Hospital. It was the first position I applied for. I would like to thank you for your great work creating the CV.

Col, After applying for jobs many times with my old resume, and not even getting a call, I have had two interviews, and been offered a job and start Monday. You made my resume ‘jump off the page’. Thank you.

I have to say that you’ve done a brilliant job distilling all my information down to a very hard-hitting snapshot of my career and experience. As they say in the classics “you only get one chance at a first impression” – you have captured it perfectly. I am delighted with the end result. Thanks very much once again for a fantastic job.

I knew I had the qualifications and the necessary experience to pursue further challenges in my career. What I did not have was the skill to write up a resume, that would skillfully summarize my experiences, and make me feel confident to prospect for employment anywhere in the world. I even tried the internet for tips but was not satisfied with the outcome. Successful Resumes assisted me to realize my potential and gave me the confidence to seek employment world over. I am now proudly submitting my resume to employment agencies that are seeking applicants with my qualifications and experiences.

I have never looked so brilliant on paper! Great service, really took the time to understand me and the career I wanted even offered advice as to how to answer the interview questions!

Digital Marketing Executive, Northern Beaches

Thanks Elisa! I am proud and happy to announce that I was successful in my application and have been appointed Fire Lieutenant at my station.

Cheryn is an exemplary Career Management Professional. Her experience in HR and service industry underscores her ability to provide high quality, client centred services. Her communication skills are superior. Highly recommended as a Career Coach for all levels: graduate to executive

Happy with the service provided and the questions asked to best present who I am in a Resume format.

I believe you have been a key to my success and I cannot thank you enough ! Thank you ! Buying you a beer would be the least I could do for you

I worked with Ray on having my resume and cover letter up to scratch. Literally within the first week of having my new resume I started getting call backs! It was great! Ray was always so helpful by giving advice and helping me with any necessary changes, I’m so glad I went with this company!

Great thanks Allan – received at least 7 – 8 LinkedIn requests today, it’s really working. If I hear of anyone else who needs help I will put your name forward.

Having decided to change career direction and move into an area I had very little experience in, I was fortunate enough to be given Elisa’s email address by a friend. Writing positive things about yourself can be quite daunting! However, Elisa obviously enjoys a challenge and within a couple of days, I received a draft of my FABULOUS resume in my inbox. Elisa’s understanding of the English language is quite exceptional. Bare in mind, I was wanting to have a complete career change, so this task was a challenge. To Elisa, Thankyou! Thankyou! Thankyou! I can say honestly and sincerely, that I will recommend your talents to everyone I know.

Thank you so much for putting together my new look resume. It certainly looks and reads more professionally than any I have put together myself in the past. I feel that you have made me sound fantastic, somewhat superior to how I even view myself. You definitely have a way with words!

My profession covers both financial services and information technology and I was particularly impressed at how Ray was able to understand and articulate my skills and experience into a succinct and effective document. What you get with Ray is much more than just a resume writer; you will get someone who will listen to your story and craft a CV that represents who you are and what you bring to the table. Thank you Ray.

G’day Col, I did get one of those three jobs FIFO jobs I applied for. Thanks for fixing up my resume. It was terrible, yours was outstanding.

Hi Martin Hope you are well mate, and I’m more than happy to keep referring people to you, couldn’t recommend you enough. …Thanks again for all your help which allowed me to break into the corporate market.

Many many thanks. Just taking this opportunity to thank you dearly for your help and support.

Just wanted to advise that I was offered that reliability engineer job you did my resume up for. With that in mind I’d now like to update my CV. The resume you wrote was brilliant, but it was targeted at that one job and needs to be amended for some of the more senior roles I am now targeting

Good evening Kel,

Wow I would employ me.. or at least interview!
Thank you, it is a fabulous resume, updates and impressive.
Would love to discuss minor details any time to suit you tomorrow.
Thank you.

Regards,
Marian

I just called to let you know that within days of submitting that new resume you prepared, I received calls for interviews for those senior roles I was looking for. I have no doubt that, plus the tailored cover letter and new LinkedIn profile, was instrumental in helping me take the next step in my career. Definitely worth the investment.

I just wanted to let you know that the wonderful resume you did for me helped get me a job! I recently signed a contract with Rio Tinto for their 2 year graduate program… Thank you for your help, I appreciate it very much.

Lucy was absolutely incredible. Not only did she write a resume that resulted in multiple interviews, but helped me to land my dream job! She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and ensured that I understand what is required from my resume in the future and how to be successful in the application process.
S.S – Administration

It has been confirmed I have won the position, against steep competition! Thanks for all your support with a strong CV. Their comment was ‘a great enjoyable read’, they loved it

Hi Martin, just letting you know I have acquired a job overseas in Saudi Arabia as an underground supervisor. Thanks again for helping with my Resume, it really works!

Hi Lucy, you have done a great job on my resume – so professional. Thanks so much for your kind support and sound advice. Is it ok if I give your contact details to a workmate of mine who also wants to get his resume written?

Just a quick word to say thanks- I’m very happy with everything you did for me.

I was so nervous about applying for the internal role. I didn’t know how to write about my experience without it sounding like I was taking credit for the work the team did. I’m so glad that I decided to get professional help!

Project Manager, Brisbane

Hi Sandy, I just wanted to let you know I have been selected for the principals job. I could not have got there without your work in preparing the cover letter, resume and selection criteria. I did not realize the scope of the task and appreciate the many hours and phone calls to ensure we covered every detail.

Thank you very much for your service and producing wonderful documents, you make me shine.

I was referred to Successful Resumes Midland by a business associate.  I had transitioned between industries and my résumé began to appear cluttered. My writer was able to help me focus my objectives, highlight my talents, and streamline my message without losing content. She was able to work with me under tight deadlines, and produce an incredible product that helped me get in the door. Having such a solid résumé has also provided me with an added boost of confidence. I have now committed to speaking with her regularly in an effort to update and highlight my achievements along the way. I have and will continue to recommend Successful Resumes Midland to people from all industries who want to ensure their résumé is moved to the top of the pile.

Hi Martin, Both the cover letter and my resume are perfect, thank you. I know the amount of work you have put in to their presentation was considerable and this reflects in their truthful streamlined simplicity. I definitely could not have done my resume or cover letter to this quality which you viewed first hand in my original very detailed résumé. I will definitely have no trouble in referring your services….

“I was simply stunned at the quality of the cover letter which got me a leg in the door for a career change position I was considering, in addition to the amazing resume you had also already prepared for me. Not only that, Dee went above and beyond and provided me with invaluable interview advice on what to expect and what this type of employer will be looking for which helped me prepare for the interview. Fantastic service I would recommend to anyone.” JM, Banking Executive

Thank you for capturing who I am as a person and what I have achieved in the past 12 years as an arborist. You knew exactly how to talk about my skills so that I could make a career change so much faster and easier than I ever thought possible. I’m so appreciative!

Dayton, Adelaide

Hi Sandy, I’m honestly very impressed…thank you very much. I can’t think of any more additions. I can see immediately how you have made my Resume more succinct and punchy!

I am very happy with the outcome of my Professional Portfolio that was created for me. I was under a lot of pressure to get this Portfolio to a casting agent and Carol delivered, no matter how big or difficult the changes I requested. Carol is the real thing. She listens and asks questions to ensure that I was happy with the final result. Carol personalised my Portfolio to suit my personality and purpose. No other service, I believe, can offer this warmth, compassion and drive to see you achieve your highest goal, whether it is to prepare you for an interview or general advice to assist with your future development

“Thank you again for your expertise with my CV. It was so much easier applying for jobs with my CV professionally done, and your advice about adapting it to the ad was invaluable.

I got an interview, studied for it, and was offered the job!

Thank you so much Lucy, I couldn’t have done it without you.”

S.B, Radiographer / Health Sector

This looks amazing. I have my interview today in Brisbane at 1300 hrs. This is going to be great as you have helped me to understand who I am and what I am capable of.

I felt comfortable talking to Chris to explain what I was after. Chris worked over the long weekend to provide a resume, well worded answers to key competencies questions and a cover letter. Not only were these provided over the long weekend but Chris kept in regular contact, asking questions to ensure the resume represented me honestly and in a manner that I was comfortable with… The result of Chris’s work and final products was that I was offered an interview and ultimately the job. This is amazing as a year ago I had sent my previous resume for various jobs and received no response… Not only did Chris improve my resume – ultimately I believe his work got me the interview to the job I wanted.

I am pleased to inform you that as of next Tuesday, I will be starting my new job as a trainer … They informed me that I had a pretty comprehensive resume and it was more of a meet and greet than an interview! Thank you again for the resume, your professionalism and attention to detail. I have no hesitation passing your details to others who may be in need of a professionally written resume.

Hi Phil, Just thought you might be interested.  Part of getting in touch with you was a staged process in looking for different work opportunities.  I used the resume you worked on and applied for a position as a Director in Research and Innovation at the Australian XXX  and this was subsequently elevated to General Manager once they knew what skills I brought to their executive group.  And after 25 years at my previous job, I have now left ready to take on my new role as GM of Research and Innovation in Canberra!

Your simple act of working with me to modernise my resume gave me the confidence in myself to make a change and shoot high!

All the best and keep up your good work, Rob

I was struggling to find a job for a few months. Although my previous work experiences with reputed MNCs was impressive, my CV did not reflect my true merit. Lucy, you tuned my CV so well that I got an overwhelming response – an incredible three interview calls within four days of applying with my updated CV.  I am so happy with my decision to go with you.

System Engineer, Perth

“Thank you for your friendly and professional assistance in tailoring my resume and cover letter to meet today’s job market. I now feel confident that my experience is well represented in all applications. Your assistance and guidance is greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!”

I’ll take this opportunity to let you know that I think you have done a great job & I’m very pleased with the finished result of the resume, cover letter & how we dealt with the whole thing. I will for sure be recommending you to friends & colleges. Much appreciated Sharon!!

Thank you for taking care of my personal resume in such a prompt and professional manner. All I can say is you do fantastic work and know how to bring out the best! The group I am working with in Hong Kong and China reviewed my resume and said they admire the format and content. It is a pleasure to have met you and I sincerely thank you for a job well done. Keep up the excellent work.

“I couldn’t more highly recommend Dee who did my resume, cover letter and LinkedIn profile. She is professional and very good at what she does. I have had comments from employers that I have gone for interviews for about how professional and good my resume is. She has great interpersonal skills and asks a lot of questions to ensure your resume reflects your experience. She also provided me with many interview tips which were very useful.” Lawyer / Finance Investigator

I’m speechless Phil – it is so professional.

Hi Martin, you are a champion! Brilliant! Exactly what I was looking for… Thank you. You have been a tremendous help to me at short notice. I will be sure to pass on your details to others I know needing similar assistance.
