Clever Fox Resume Service

We've heard it often enough.  "I know I'm good at what I do, but I just can't get on the short list".

The truth is, most recruiters are inundated with job applications on a daily basis.  They have to sift through volumes of paper and select applicants who appear to have the right skill sets.  All this within deadlines they have to meet.

If you are applying for a role in the hidden job market, you may not have to compete with hundreds of other applicants.  However, it should leave no doubt in the minds of the hiring manager or recruiter that you deserve an interview. 

Why use Clever Fox's professional resume service?

In most cases, your resume is being scanned for elimination.  Within seconds of looking at your resume, a decision is made on whether it lands on the cutting room floor with the majority  - or makes the shortlist.

A do-it-yourself resume created using outdated or wrong tips from books or the internet could mean losing your dream job to someone who has been able to sell themselves more effectively.

Our professional resume service is designed to improve your chances of success in obtaining the career you want.  As a Certified Advanced Resume Writer (CARW) Kathleen's qualification is internationally recognised and demonstrate best practice in resume writing.

    Testimonial from one of our resume clients...

    Kathleen, you've changed my perspective on resumes - from a document that provided an overview of my education, experience and achievements to an important marketing tool!  The methodology you used helped me to think in detail about what my achievements were, and what tangible results they had created.  It's helped me clarify what  "my story" is when meeting with recruiters and potential employers.  Highly recommended for any executive who wants a compelling resume.  Tim W, Executive
