You want to be proud of your resume.
I want you to be proud of it too.
In this self-guided course, I lead you step-by-step to create a tailored resume for a specific job.
You can write a great tailored resume over a weekend. Yes, really.
You can do this course at your own pace -- it's your resume. I designed it so if you have a full weekend for this work, you could complete it.
But it's okay to take your time with it too. You can use the method again if you are applying for several jobs (it gets easier every time too).

If you are thinking about writing a resume and ...
- you want an easy way to hit the points hiring people need to see every time
- you want to be proud and confident about the resume you send in
- you want to make the best impression possible and have your resume sound like you
- you want to land interviews based on your qualifications and stories. And when you show up, they know what they are getting.
- you want to know what makes you unique for a role and how to sell that
- you want to be led by someone who has helped thousands of people create their resumes.
then this is the program for you.
You could probably use a process that helps you write a great resume with the least pain possible.
You need a resume to open doors. And while I understand the urge to just have someone do it for you, you are better off writing it yourself.
Nobody can write about the things you have done, like you can.
You just need to know the new rules of resume writing, get some inspiration, follow a proven process and get some encouragement. I would love to do that for you.
The beautiful thing about writing your own resume is that you own and know your career story and the words. It becomes easier for you to talk about your skills in an interview, while networking, or on LinkedIn, when you write your resume yourself.
Writing a resume isn't that hard to do. The hard part is when you start to question what to include, what format to use, and what the expectations are.

Would you like to know that stuff without asking six different sources?
Would you like to have a clear and simple process, one so perfect that creating it only takes a few days?
I've put this program together to help you do exactly that.
It's called Resume Bootcamp.
Resumes aren't that complicated
I used to write poor resumes. And, the worst thing was that I didn't know they were bad.
It didn't matter because I was going for entry or coordinator level roles. But, once I started applying for higher level jobs I stopped getting calls. I knew I was qualified. But I wasn't landing interviews.
I was doing something wrong. I got obsessed with resumes. I read every resume book I could get my hands on.
I signed up for resume classes and spent three years studying resumes from every angle. My resumes got better. I even did a HR Certificate to understand how recruiters and hiring people read resumes.

I used my skills to land a job as a Career Transition Consultant at a HR firm. In that role I learned resume writing from their executive coaches, and quickly became the in-house resume expert. I taught all the workshops and webinars. Clients of all levels came to see me for resume help. I taught over 1,000 people, ranging from entry level to CEO level how to write their resume.
Over time I developed my own method for teaching this work. I tested this new method of resume writing on two groups in 2018.
1. The first group was an online cohort of professionals. I gave them three weeks to do the work. But I was surprised when they did it in days. They got calls for interviews immediately. Awesome.
2. The second group was a class of 15 Web Development students, many who were international. I used the same process to teach them how to write resumes. Not only were they beautiful documents, but some students used them to apply for jobs, and landed interviews within days!
People in both groups raved that I took a process that they previously hated and made it kinda' fun.
I knew I was onto something.
Once you have a process, resumes are easier to write
Resume writing is not about a lack of information, but too much information.
You need a trusted process to craft a document that lands you interviews, instead of questioning every line and word.
Get my process for creating resumes that get you called for an interview without ever having to use cheat tactics, swallow your pride, or be a cheese ball -- not even once.

I know that resume writing rarely is just about a resume, so I share tools to help you see how awesome you are, and how to translate that onto paper.
Testimonials
Your advice helped me update my internal resume for a proposal. I thought it hit the high points of my experience. The proposal team wanted more depth. I added accomplishments I was proud of on each project, and updated my resume quickly and easily. Normally I struggle with updating my resume - your advice made it a fast and satisfying exercise.

Are you experienced?
I get it – so many people talk about resumes, but it's hard to know who is the real deal.
I have been hired by institutions like The University of Winnipeg to teach resume writing for their PACE program, and advice their leadership how to improve the course. I led resume writing workshops and webinars for three years at People First HR; and have been invited to teach resumes at communities and schools across the country.
I have been helping people figure out their stories and how to position themselves for over 20 years, first as a drama teacher and now as a career coach. This is my favorite work to do.
You like people with degrees? Me too! I have a B.A in Theatre, M.Ed in Humane Education and a HR Certificate. I am a certified Resume Strategist and member of the Career Professionals of Canada.
I contributed to the resume section of the Amazon Best-selling resume search book, YouMap.
I am often hired by people who spent hundreds of dollars on another resume writer and want to get back to an authentic style.
And I'd love to help you!
