#5 Amazing cover letter for job seekers There are many candidates having brilliant results but unfortunately they are not getting a single interview call.

The cover letter carry’s an important part in job application. Most job seekers don't have a clue about getting their "foot in the door" for a job opening... not a clue. Forget about job offers... many people see months fly by without landing ONE decent job INTERVIEW. It's no secret we're living in some of the most stressful and difficult times in years — and today's job market is a killer.

#7 G r a h a m S h e r e s t o n Executive Recruitment

Time to get serious about your job search? Have an Experienced Headhunter re- write your resume

I know what Recruiters and Hiring Managers look for and can re-write your resume so it will get noticed.

During my many years as an Executive Recruiter and Professional Resume Writer I have read thousands of resumes from highly qualified candidates.

Too often candidates miss out on opportunities because their resume is badly written and does a poor job of selling the individual.

The sole purpose of a resume is to sell the candidate and to trigger a response.

In today's competitive job market it is essential that you present yourself in the best way possible in order to get that vital response.

The fee of $150 includes:

-Telephone conversation to critique your resume, discuss your background and career objectives

-Professionally written resume in MS Word format

-Cover letter (tailored to a specific job opportunity if desired)

-Free revisions for up to ten days

The turnaround time is usually 3 business days or less. Rush orders can be completed in 24 hours for an additional $50.

Email me at [email protected] with your contact information, please attach your current resume and let me know a good time to call.

Some recent testimonials from satisfied clients: a) Wow! Everything sounds fantastic! I am very, very pleased with your work! I love the way my resume sounds as I'm reading it out loud. It’s very professional & I'm so glad I decided to do this. I'll look forward to hearing your expert opinion. Thanks again! A.N. Texas b) Thank you ever so much for using your well-honed experience to compose and format my resume and letters. I see no room at this time for editing, and am now only thrilled to be able to present my experienced self in this professional style. The letters, as well, sound suitable and professional. C.R.

RESUME AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT IN THE FIELD OF LAW

Go to: http://brycelegal.com/

Why Us?

An attorney-founded boutique dedicated to outstanding career services in just one field — law.

Changing jobs can seem overwhelming. Especially in a difficult economy. There’s so much to think about. Does your resume highlight your experience, skills, and assets? Will your resume help you get noticed by employers and legal recruiters? Is your resume targeted to your immediate and long-range career goals? Does your resume move your job search and your career forward?

Here’s how Bryce Legal® can make a challenging time easier for you: We understand what you’re going through. Many of Bryce Legal’s clients are looking for a new legal job for the first time in years, some for the first time ever. We understand your challenges, frustrations, and fears. Whether you are currently employed, downsized, graduating, or just looking for a change, let us help you understand the value you bring to employers, and to position yourself to find a better fit, in less time.

We understand hiring processes and trends in the legal market. Bryce Legal was founded by Shauna C. Bryce, an attorney with experience in legal hiring as a member of a law firm hiring committee and as a resume writer and career adviser. She stays on top of the legal market through an extensive network of hiring attorneys (in firms of all sizes, government, nonprofits, regulated businesses, corporations, and academia), legal recruiters, and other legal/hiring professionals.

We conduct in-depth client interviews. We do not send you lengthy forms to fill out, expecting you to recite your job responsibilities. Instead, we conduct one-on-one client interviews designed to identify and highlight the experience, skills, and accomplishments that employers tell us they’re looking for in job candidates. It’s a collaborative process that not only results in a resume that appeals to employers, but also will prepare you for tough job interview questions.

We custom-craft all our career documents and target them toward your career goals. At Bryce Legal, we do not use resume and cover letter templates. Nor do we just revise your existing resume. Instead, we recognize that every client is different. A resume that’s perfect for a senior products liability litigator in a large Los Angeles firm will not work well for a recent graduate with an LLM in Tax pursuing a career in trusts and estates in a small firm in Atlanta. We create each client’s resume, cover letters, and other auxiliary career documents from scratch, and target them to that client’s career goals.
