Bio
Jason Carter
I was unemployed for around 2 years, and I recently decided to look into working with a professional resume writer to create a better resume, because mine was severely lacking. After careful research, I found Candace who has extensive experience in the area of professional resume writing. Candace was 100% professional throughout the entire process, and she asked all of the right questions to gather the best information on my experience and career goals. She knows how to word everything in a way that it will be picked up by the ATS systems that companies use to narrow down potential candidates. She was on time every step of the way, and she crafted a professional resume and LinkedIn profile for me that I can truly be proud of! As a result of the new resume, my confidence with the job search and interviews grew tremendously. Without Candace's help, I strongly doubt that I would have landed my current job. It is an entry-level position, but Candace has experience working with people at all levels of their careers. I highly recommend contacting Candace if you ever need any help with a professional resume, career coaching, or LinkedIn profile creation! I would definitely use her services again in the future!

I know how to capture the attention of your target audience and leverage my executive recruiting background to create custom career documents - resumes, cover letters, branded biographies, and LinkedIn profiles - that get results. BUT... career documents are just one piece of the puzzle. How you approach your job search is key - and becomes even more as you ascend the career ladder. Executive roles are not typically filled via job boards. I am passionate about teaching my clients how to run a proactive vs. reactive job search, and all of my resume packages come with educational materials. Reach out anytime to discuss your unique situation, career goals, and explore how we can work together to achieve them.📌 Working with me includes:➟ Accomplishment-driven, branded documents➟ You work with me, never subcontracted writers➟ Clean formatting and modern design➟ Job search education with all packages My most popular services range from $750 - $1950📆 Schedule a phone consultation: www.calendly.com/strategic-resume 🖥 www.strategic-resume.com
