through the first phase on a third... a pre-IPO software possibility...
Your resume has received positive results from all three...thanks.

I had. I really appreciate all your help."

the resume present 10 times better, I think; that is amazing to me,

outfit, [...]. The thinking process that you have had me go through
dovetails very well with book or two I am currently reading on
interviews, etc., and again I am very pleased. Thanks again!!"

that I selected you to help me with it. All the best!"

with your resume."

outstanding. I received over 15 interviews and 4 offers based on a

his resume, and I am so impressed. I was working with him a little
while when he first took the early severance package and he was
struggling with his resume, as he'd never done one before. Well, I
just got a look at the one you did and it's fantastic. I need to
refer people to someone who does a great job on resumes, and I was
wondering if you could put in the mail to me your cards and brochures
so I could pass them out."

knocks them out!"

I especially like your emphasis on the leadership concept. My very
first use ... resulted in a call from a headhunter offering me an
opportunity for a President/CEO job. The headhunter quoted, without a
prompt from me, [your phrasing], and said he liked it. After hearing
my review of operational expertise, he said I could indeed sell
"Rs to Es." He also verbalized his client's need for
leadership almost verbatim from our text. Bravo!"

"The résumé's
fantastic. You know I look this resume over and think, is this me?
And then I realize, yes, it is. It just sticks out at you. I've read
a lot of resumes in my career, and anybody who's hiring when reading

callers said I was one of 100 selected out of 1,800 from an NBEW ad
response!"
