What the writing service covers

We know how to write resumes that get you rated Best Qualified. With accomplishment coaching built in, the goal is simple: get you Referred and invited to the interview.

The Outline Format resume

Our format is popular with the federal HR specialists who review first and the hiring managers who read next. Length runs about five pages, packed with the keywords and accomplishments the announcement asks for.

Accomplishment coaching

Accomplishment examples are critical to getting Referred. We add five to seven accomplishments so you prove the past performance that matches the KSAs the position requires.

KSA writing

The KSA keywords go in the text of your resume, with examples in your accomplishments, following the directions in the announcement and the questionnaire.

Career or occupational change

We analyze the qualifications for the new target position and interview you about the skills that transfer into the new job series.

Targeted to your next grade

Have not updated your resume in a long time? It is time to make sure the resume represents your qualifications, experience, and accomplishments, targeted for the next job and grade level.

Start with the $210 federal resume quote, assessment, and consultation: your consultant reviews your target announcement against your background before any writing begins.
