Adam M.

Sr. Resume Writer & Career Counselor (20 Yrs) | Job Search Strategy

Highly experienced Resume Writer & Career Counselor (M.S.) | UpWork Top-rated for since 2017 | I've rewritten thousands of Resumes & LinkedIn profiles. All jobs can be quoted as fixed-price. My writing process is meticulous and highly personalized, based on 18 years of experience. I understand the hiring process first-hand, have worked in HR, and have a very active pulse on the job market, and many challenges it is presenting nearly all applicants. My approach; refine & submit targeted resumes, because there's one goal; secure interview calls. RESUMES FOR ALL CAREER LEVELS: • All Resumes need clear targets; I request 3-5 openings, then ask you detailed questions • If your resume doesn't show HOW you solve problems w/ results, companies pass on you • Resumes need to be concise, easy to digest & offer specific examples + results (your value) FREE RESUME OR LINKEDIN REVIEWS (from a Recruiter's perspective); 1) Send current resume and/or LinkedIn URL; 2) You'll get a feedback on content + formatting improvements HR & HIRING EXPERIENCE (CRITICAL IN TODAY'S MARKET!) • There's no such thing as "ATS Optimized" resumes (trust me, I'll show you HR proof) • If you're having trouble, it's likely an ATS PARSING issue due to poor formatting; • Dual columns, graphics, text boxes & tables make it difficult for an ATS to autofill fields • Recruiters review resumes & decide to proceed or not in 6-13 secs (not robots!) SERVICES: Resumes | LinkedIn Optimization | Cover Letters | Federal & Academic CVs | Executive Bios | Outplacement (Job Transition Assistance packages) | Career Education Courses/Program Design CAREER SUMMARY: • Career Counselor (Master of Science, Career Counseling/Vocational Psych.) • Owner of DIYCareerGuy LLC, 2016 - Present • Workforce/Professional Development experience at startups & consulting • Former Adjunct Professor of Communications at SUNY Oswego
