We've also put together some Charlotte employment resources
(see box below). But now for some alternative
thinking. And it's simple logic really. A good resume writer,
like any other professional today, is connected. Specifically,
connected to the Web. In fact, you may be surprised at how many
are conducting their business over the Internet. With that
being the case, there's no need to tether yourself
only to writers with a physical presence in
Charlotte.
A Charlotte Resume Service - Or An
Online Alternative?
Each day that passes, there's ever increasing odds that
your ideal resume writer, a certified writer with
a work history in your very industry, might just
be living in Atlanta or Chicago or New
York – and not Charlotte, North Carolina. What
if we told you that you could access that writer with a
few clicks of a mouse? And that the entire transaction could be
handled by phone, email and fax?

What We've Done
We've taken 10 of the most 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
|
Pricing for these 10 Resume Services range from
$89 to $249 for a mid-level professional. Prices at the
higher range 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 Road Rage on
I-85!
Visit our home page, Review of Resume Writers, and
judge for yourself. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised
at your options. If not, well, you can always fire up the
car and strike out in search of a local firm. Either way,
best of luck in your job search.

↓ "Charlotte has become a major
U.S. financial center and is now the second
largest banking center in the United States
(after New York). The nation's largest
financial institution by assets, Bank of
America, calls the city home. The city was
also the former corporate home of Wachovia
until its purchase by Wells Fargo in 2008;
Wells Fargo is in the process of integrating
Wachovia, with the two banks expected to be
fully merged by the end of 2011. Bank of
America's headquarters, along with other
regional banking and financial services
companies, are located primarily in the
uptown financial district. Thanks in large
part to the expansion of the city's banking
industry, the Charlotte skyline has
mushroomed in the past two decades and
boasts the Bank of America Corporate Center,
the tallest skyscraper between Philadelphia
and Atlanta. The 60-story postmodern gothic
tower, designed by renowned architect Cesar
Pelli, stands 871 feet tall and was
completed in 1992. Electrolux recently
decided to relocate their North American
headquarters to Charlotte from Augusta,
Georgia. Electrolux will also consolidate
all of their North American offices into the
new Charlotte headquarters. Swedish-based
Husqvarna recently announced that they will
relocate their North American headquarters
to Charlotte from Augusta also.
The following Fortune 500 companies are
headquartered in the Charlotte metropolitan
area, in order of their rank: Bank of America,
Lowe's in suburban Mooresville, Nucor (steel
producer), Duke Energy, Sonic Automotive,
Family Dollar, Goodrich Corporation, and SPX
Corporation (industrial technology). Other
major companies headquartered in the Metro
Charlotte include Time Warner Cable (formerly a
business unit of Fortune 500 company Time
Warner), Continental Tire North America
(formerly Continental/General Tire), Muzak,
Belk, Harris Teeter, Meineke Car Care Center,
Lance, Inc, Bojangles', Carlisle Companies,
LendingTree, Compass Group USA, Food Lion,
Coca-Cola Bottling Consolidated Company (the
nation's second largest Coca-Cola bottler), and
the Carolina Beverage Corporation (makers of
Cheerwine, Sun Drop, and others) in suburban
Salisbury, North Carolina. US Airways regional
carrier CCAir was headquartered in
Charlotte."
