"Truly Amazing Results!"

Searching for a job IS a full-time job. I just didn’t have the time to write my own resume, let alone a cover letter and LinkedIn profile. Nor did I have the time to research keywords. Thankfully, Ampresume made it easy, and taught me how to apply to get the most value from my new resume. When I used my new resume, it felt like I heard back from about 75% of my applications. Truly amazing results.

"Heard Back From Most Applications"

Jason Miller, Oracle

The Problem

Jason is a contract manager with a passion for law, a doctorate, and two master’s degrees. He feels his current salary and position do not reflect his skills, experience and education. He is ready to uplevel his career. Recognizing that the job market has evolved, he reached out to us for help.

A quick glance at his resume reveals some important oversights:

  • Jason’s work history is not aligned with resume writing best practices. For each job in your work history, describe your routine tasks in a short paragraph, then follow up with 3-6 bullet points detailing your achievements. This allows you to clearly differentiate between tasks and achievements, making for a more effective and appealing layout.
  • Jason uses a two-column resume layout. While that may seem reasonable, many older versions of ATS (the automated screening algorithms companies use to screen out candidates) cannot read information in two separate columns. Stick to one column to play it safe.
  • Jason’s work history is sparse on accomplishments and fails to properly articulate his value.

 

Because of the sheer volume of applicants, recruiters spend less than seven seconds on average scanning resumes. A poorly written resume stands no chance, even if the candidate himself is a good fit for that position.

The Solution

Occasionally, we get candidates whose resumes seriously undersell them, stifling their career potential. Jason is one such candidate. He has a handful of master’s degrees, a PhD in law, and over 18 years’ experience in various legal roles.

We start by incorporating powerful action verbs to present the narrative of an accomplished academic and a veteran of contract law. His accomplishments take center stage and, when combined with his updated LinkedIn profile and impressive academic credentials, effectively convey Jason’s true value and potential.

The Core Message

Jason is an out-of-the-box thinker and accomplished academic who solves complex problems with a nuanced understanding of global legal frameworks.

The Result

Jason takes advantage of our e-book and learns how to tailor his new resume for each job application. It didn’t take long for him to see terrific results; three interviews in two weeks and two job offers one month later. Jason now enjoys improved job satisfaction, enhanced job security, and a more senior position – on top of increased pay. Better still, he has learned valuable career lessons that will last a lifetime.
