Resumes that get noticed.

Where Are You in Your Career Journey?

Hi, I’m Meg, and I write resumes that help ambitious professionals get noticed.

You’ve probably heard that recruiters spend 7-10 seconds (at most) reviewing each resume they receive and often receive hundreds of applications for each job opening. As they scan, they’re looking for two things: That you have the basic requirements, and that there’s no obvious reason to rule you out.

You know you have the education, background, skills, and experience to land your dream job. All you need to do is get your foot in the door. Once you get the interview, you’re sure they’ll fall in love with you, and the rest will take care of itself.

But you’ve been submitting resume after resume, and silence has been the only response. It’s frustrating! You’ve heard it can be hard to get noticed, but there’s so much “advice” out there, and you aren’t an expert in the process of job seeking – how can you be expected to know what strategy will work best in your current situation?

HRMeg can help.

With 4+ years of resume writing experience serving hundreds of clients, I know how to create a resume that makes a recruiter want to keep reading and place you on the “yes” pile. I know what makes an effective resume:

  • It clearly shows that your skills and experience align with the job you’re targeting
  • It’s more than a job description – it focuses on outcomes and accomplishments, demonstrating ways in which your employers have benefited from your contributions
  • It anticipates the obvious questions and provides explanations that make sense
  • It makes it obvious you’re worth inviting for an interview

How do I do this?

I spend time getting to know you. I dig deep to understand your career history and your current goals. I use what I learn to articulate your unique offering to prospective employers in your chosen industry. And I work with you to develop a positioning and branding strategy that effectively communicates your unique value proposition.

In short, I transform your resume to convey your personal brand and career story with elegance and precision, enabling you to land interviews.

A professionally prepared resume boosts your confidence by showcasing your qualifications. It makes clear to prospective employers that you have the ability to make a positive impact on their business. And when you feel proud to share your resume, it puts you in a prime position to land your dream job.
