About Our Ratings...We evaluated dozens of professional resume writers and resume services in the course of developing this site. We reviewed everything from one-man shops to boiler room operations employing dozens.We saw prices ranging from $39.00 to $1000.00 and everything in between. Needless to say, the vast majority of these companies didn't make the cut. Why? Four reasons: Quality of WorkmanshipWe're former resume writers, ourselves (see "Who We Are"). After ten years in the business, we know a thing or two about writing a resume. Like how to draw relevant information out of a client. Like how to put that client's best foot forward on paper through subtlety of language. Like how to use design and layout to marketing advantage. It drove us a bit crazy at times because we're perfectionists. Though we're no longer writing resumes, those job skills, that perfectionism, is still there--and we look for it in other writers. Most of the time, sadly, we don't find it. When we do, we sit up and take notice. So quality of workmanship is what we value the most. Price and ValueBecause we know what it takes to go from telephone interview to finished resume--in terms of time and anguish--we know fair pricing when we see it. Which explains why the resume writing services we detail above are in the same relative ballpark when it comes to pricing. And explains why we elected not to review that resume writer charging $1000. We look for fair value. TimelinessWhen you're between jobs and out of work, every day seems a month and every month a year. Time is of the essence and we looked seriously at the sense of time conveyed by resume writers. Not everybody has to offer rush service. But they do need to provide a reasonable time frame for completing your project. EaseEverything's a hassle. Ever notice that? And just when you really, really need things to go right--like when you're out of work or can't take another day under the oppressive thumb of Attila The Hun, the night shift supervisor at Acme Wing Nuts--well, forget it. Hence, we put a good deal of stock in resume writing services whose web sites navigated smoothly. Where information was readily available. Where pricing was up front and clear. Companies who signaled a level of personalized service that would make us comfortable shelling out those bucks--fair as they are. In short, we valued resume writers who were easy to work with. We've tried to provide a modicum of help in preparing a resume that reflects your unique qualifications for the job you desire. We wish you well in your job search, and trust that your career goals are just within reach. -- David Alan Carter
