with a few clicks of a mouse. And the entire transaction can be

What We've Done
We've taken 10 of the more popular Resume Writing Services on the Web and
put them through their paces. These are companies that
collectively employ hundreds of professional writers
covering a broad spectrum of industries and
occupations. We wrote in-depth reviews for each resume
service, and gave them star ratings based on the
following:
- Writer Certification
- Price and Value
|
- Quality of Workmanship
- Personal Attention
|
- Satisfaction Guarantee
- Timeliness
|
The resume services that we
identified have prices ranging from $89 to $249 for a
mid-level professional. Those prices at the higher end of
the scale reflect an actual interview with you over the
phone to discuss your work history, and 2-3 hours of work by
your writer to craft a resume that will get results.
I'll be honest; although each was popular, not every service
rated the same. In fact, the ratings range from 5 stars to a
single star. You'll find that our 5-star "Top Picks" offer
the most value and service.
[Note: If you're pressed for time, you might like to know
that ResumeWriters.com
received our highest rating. With certified writers
specializing in 5 dozen career fields, this company has been
delivering a 99.98% customer satisfaction rating since 1998.
Plus, they've got one of the strongest guarantees in the
industry... if you haven't gotten interviews within 60
days, they'll re-write your resume at no
charge. You can even choose to work with a new
writer for a totally fresh take on your resume. That cinched
the deal with us.]
All of this, and no I-35 Road Rage
at the MLK!
Visit our home page, Review of Resume Writers, and judge
for yourself. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. If
not, well, you can always fire up the car and strike out on
the Mo-Pac in search of a local firm. Either way, I
wish you the best of luck in your job search!
