Canada's Best 1-on-1 Professional Resume Writing Services For All Industries and Career Stages

Yes! In addition to resume writing, we offer professional interview coaching services across Canada. Our certified coaches provide personalized 1-on-1 sessions to help you confidently answer any interview question and stand out to hiring managers. Learn more about our interview coaching services.

Standard turnaround time for all resume packages is 3 business days from the time of consultation. This is quicker than the average turnaround time for the industry. However, if you have a pressing job application deadline, please select Express Option at checkout and the writer will call you and work hard to meet your timeline.

No one knows your career better than you. The consultation process is quite thorough and exhaustive, but ultimately, resume writing is a collaborative process. Occasionally, minor revisions are required, and these changes are included in all our resume writing packages. We want to be sure that you are completely comfortable and confident with the way your resume markets you.

Just one. Unlike career coaching that requires multiple sessions, the resume writing process requires just one 45-minute consultation. During the consultation, you'll be guided to deep-dive into your career history, education, experience, skills, strengths, accomplishments, and goals. After the consultation, your resume writer does all the work to craft a compelling message for your target audience.

Our writers are experts in the resume writing process and have years of experience working with all industries. We feel confident that we can help you, no matter what industry. If you would like to find out more, book a free phone chat with us and we will be happy to answer any further questions you may have.

Looking for a new job can be an expensive business.

After buying fresh interview outfits and paying out for travel costs, the last thing you want is more expenditure.

Sometimes, though, you need to spend money to make money. Investing in yourself should always be your main priority.

You should seriously consider using a professional resume service in any of the following situations:

• If Writing is Not Your Strength: Not everyone is a natural wordsmith. You might excel in your industry but lack the prose skills to effectively highlight your experience. If writing is not your forte, it's time to call for some resume help.
• If Your Circumstances Are Unique: Have you got lengthy gaps in your employment history? Are you switching careers completely? Have many of your jobs been very short-term? A professional resume service can help you present a unique situation favorably.
• If Your Resume Is Failing To Generate Responses: With HR personnel often spending just 5 seconds scanning resumes, yours needs to pack a real punch to avoid the cull. Failure to generate interviews is often due to a resume that doesn't present key information clearly. If you're not hearing back from employers, it could be your resume rather than your skillset that's to blame.
• If You Are Just Entering The Job Market: If you're an entry-level jobseeker or recent graduate, getting a first resume written well is crucial. Once you have this in place, you can build on it over time so get the job done by a pro and get into the workplace quicker. A one-off investment at this stage will continue repaying dividends over time.
• If You're Not Clear On What To Include: How far back does your employment history need to go? Can you omit jobs? Do you need to include information about your hobbies? If you don't know where to start, a resume writing service will clarify all this for you.

All Careers By Design resumes are developed with key words and critical job requirements in mind to work with resume scanning/tracking systems. Not only will your resume pass through software programs, but it will provide a compelling story when it arrives in front of recruiters and hiring managers.

It's important to us that you achieve your desired results from your new resume and career marketing materials. Unfortunately, without a career target or goal, your resume will simply not deliver optimal results. Resumes that are too broad and general tend to fail at demonstrating the value you have to offer, and therefore are unlikely to generate responses and interview requests. We recommend accessing career coaching first if you're unsure of your next career steps or area of interest.

If you are a new immigrant to Canada or are planning to move here, we can certainly support you with our powerful and effective resume writing services given you have a specific job description or listing to target. Your job must be one that is either in Canada or the US as our services are designed to perform the best with that type of readership. However please note that our career coaches are not skilled at new immigrant issues and we do not take on coaching clients with less than 3 years of residence in Canada.

LinkedIn is an incredibly powerful tool for job searchers in numerous industries. Recent research indicates that many recruiters use LinkedIn exclusively for sourcing candidates, while 80%+ of hiring managers review LinkedIn profiles before deciding to call a candidate for an interview. If you don't have a LinkedIn profile, or if your LinkedIn profile lacks critical content, you could be missing out on potential opportunities. Your resume writer can help you optimize your profile and develop new profile content that will complement your resume and strengthen your personal brand.
