Todd’s new résumé opened with a Qualifications Summary, serving to tell his target audience what he could do for them. It then flowed into a Professional Experience section, which presented a more thorough overview of his positions and the accomplishments he drove. Todd’s new Professional Experience section contained 365 words versus the original 53, a stark improvement in the ability to contain keywords and desired qualifications. Lastly, Todd’s Education section was right-sized, with non-differentiating information being omitted, including his high school diploma and incomplete degree.

Did the phone start ringing?

It did indeed! Todd wrote, “I searched for a position, other than a diesel technician, for about a year. I was contacted very few times for an interview. All of the contacts I received were to let me know the position was filled. I was starting to wonder if I was ever going to advance my career. I was guided to Samantha to enhance my résumé. I was blown away by the difference between the résumé I was taught to write, and the résumé her service provided. I was shocked by the number of inquiries about employment I had with the new résumé. My phone was ringing off the hook. I had more job interviews in the two months following the use of Ladybug’s résumé service than ever before. I received a position as a project manager in just two short months. I was able to pick my future instead of settling for a position.”
