We've also put together some Seattle 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 Seattle.

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 be living in Portland or Los Angeles or Fargo – and not Seattle, Washington. 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?

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 the Pacific Highway!

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.

↓  "Six companies on the 2008 Fortune 500 list of the United States' largest companies, based on total revenue are headquartered in Seattle: former financial services company Washington Mutual ( now Chase ) (#97), Internet retailer Amazon.com (#171), coffee chain Starbucks (#277), department store Nordstrom (#299), insurance company Safeco (#388), and global logistics firm Expeditors International (#458). However, in April 2008, the sale of Safeco to Liberty Mutual Group was announced and in September 2008, Washington Mutual was seized by the FDIC and was sold to JPMorgan Chase. Other Fortune 500 companies popularly associated with Seattle are based in nearby Puget Sound cities. Warehouse club chain Costco (#29), the largest company in Washington, is based in Issaquah. Microsoft (#44) and Nintendo of America are located in Redmond. Weyerhaeuser, the forest products company (#147), is based in Federal Way. Finally, Bellevue is home to truck manufacturer PACCAR (#169), and to international mobile telephony giant T-Mobile's U.S. subsidiary, T-Mobile USA.

Prior to moving its headquarters to Chicago, aerospace manufacturer Boeing (#27) was the largest company based in Seattle. Its largest division is still headquartered in nearby Renton, and the company has large aircraft manufacturing plants in Everett and Renton, so it remains the largest private employer in the Seattle metropolitan area."
