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.
A Seattle 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
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?
Seattle, You're Going To Love 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
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."
