[x]Professional Biography (Bio)
A Bio is written in essay style and details the most fundamental moments, contributions, and style of your career. Generally one page (3-6 paragraphs), it focuses on your most current achievements and works backwards in reverse chronological order. A Bio is utilized for speaking engagements, company Websites, and portfolios used for marketing, job searches, and similar promotional activities.
[x]Strategic Follow-up Letters
A strategic follow-up letter is sent following an interview. More than an ordinary thank-you letter, a strategic follow-up letter strengthens the interviewer's perception of you while addressing any potential concerns that may have been raised during the interview. It also provides an opportunity to add related skills, abilities, and interests, or any other information you did not think of in the interview — which may have a bearing on your candidacy.
Since there will typically be several top candidates competing for the position, each with various tradeoffs regarding strengths and liabilities, a strategic follow-up letter helps nudge that often difficult decision in your favor.
[x]Additional Resume and Cover Letter Targets
When pursuing jobs that are significantly different (in industry or responsibilities), it is best to modify your resume and cover letter to reflect the skill set sought in each type of position.
This can be especially true when the skills are non-complementary, or when one option is a hands-on position and the other is a management position. Emphasizing skills other than those sought by an employer may raise questions about your interest level in a particular position.
Rewriting your resume for appropriate emphasis on different skill sets will sell your abilities relative to the type of position you are pursuing.

As an experienced professional you need a skillfully developed presentation demonstrating both the depth and breadth of your expertise. Your resume must show a core set of professional or technical "hard" skills, an ability to solve problems, and a broader set of administrative and interpersonal "soft" skills. To be portrayed appropriately, you must demonstrate a skill set that will meet new challenges and an ability to be a team player in any type of organization.
Career Advancement: If you are seeking advancement, we will use a Skill Upgrade treatment that will illustrate how your past skills and accomplishments are relevant to a new level of responsibility.
Career Change: Whether you seek to leverage transferable skills from previous jobs or recent education, we will use a Skill Transfer treatment that highlights how your skills are relevant to the career you want now - rather than peg you according to your past history.
Our proprietary skill analysis questionnaire (SkillNet™) will draw out vital areas of your background; our strategic development of your resume will minimize potential liabilities and emphasize your past achievements and skills for a new set of challenges. Our resume writing strategies will equip you with a powerful resume that professionally highlights a successful career.
