I must take some time from a very busy career transition
effort to thank you for the splendid work you did in editing,
formatting, and adding an "executive polish" to
my resume. Your precise and hard-hitting words have, within
one week, caused an incredible interest in me from some very
impressive companies.
Your timeliness in working on a compressed schedule and
delivering a near perfect product on the day you promised
was not only appreciated but thoroughly impressive.
Finally, one of the most impressive aspects of your work
was your excellent ability to translate my 15 years of information
technology, telecommunications and leadership experience
as a career military officer into very relevant industry
terms.
I'm sure that this is only the beginning of a long and fruitful
relationship Kim.

Sample comments by employers, recruiters, and colleagues
regarding this client's resume:
"I got a chance to look at your resume. VERY IMPRESSIVE.
Would you mind sending me a copy for plagiarizing purposes?
I'm always tweaking mine and looking for new ideas for presentation."
"You have a very powerful resume -- skill sets in several
areas. Please contact me when you are back in Fredburg...I
have several ideas about your future, some of them with us."
"You have done a GREAT job of presenting yourself on
paper in a way that a non-military experience, commercial
executive can see your skills...I do not have any CIO searches
open at this time myself, but a number of my partners do,
and I will urge them to review your resume."
"I thought the resume looked great - right length,
right amount of "big picture" and detail. I am
not surprised that you are getting positive responses. Some
employer is probably out there drooling for a shot at an
IT person with your background and management experience..."
Once again I have to commend you
and your staff for the
wonderful work you
do. I have to say it again, you truly are professionals!
You guys are writers, career guiders, counselors and psychologists
all in one! You have really helped me through this. I would
not have been able to do it without you. I would recommend
your services to friends and family but they all have JOBS!
C.P., Program Director, Connecticut
Hi Jodie,
Nice to hear from you and thank you for your concern in
this difficult time for several people here in Southern California.
I am well and far from the firestorm. The air is difficult
to breathe but bearable considering the circumstances.
Due to the exceptional assistance from ResumePower.com,
I have been working full time for a marketing agency in a
job I am very excited about. I work from home and love the
fact that I don't have to commute on the freeways. In the
near future I will contact you to assist me in updating my
resume with my current employment position and my accomplishments
to date. Sincerely,
G.A., Marketing Director, California
Hi Jodie,
I just wanted to let you know that I got excellent
feedback about the resume from the HR folks, everybody
loved. In addition I put together a basic professional
web page (see below) and received the same positive
response. The problem I’m facing with is that
I got two offers and don’t know which one to
take. I took the liberty and gave your name and phone
number to a friend of mine to help him with his resume
needs. Regards,
P.C., Quality Assurance Manager/Engineer,

I reviewed the first draft on the first day you sent
it to me. I have been having great success with it.
I have it posted on hotjobs, monster, careerpath, and
yahoo. Actually, the biggest success that I have had
with the first draft, was with <XYZ Company>.
They had a job posting for an analyst position international
banking in their treasury department. This past week,
I just finished going on my third interview with them.
This upcoming week is when I should hear on what their
decision ends up being. Headhunters have been constantly
been getting in touch with me, so that they could have
me come down to their offices. Lastly, I included my
first draft in my graduate application for Pace University.
Two weeks later, they've accepted me for the Spring
2000 semester. It has been one thing after the other.
I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. At
the present moment, I would like to keep the first
draft in tact as is. If there any changes that have
have to be made, I will notify you promptly. So far,
I have experienced great early success with this first
draft. This was definitely money well spent. I will
touch base with you soon and let you know how I made
out at <XYZ Company> and any other upcoming opportunity
I get. Once again, you have done a great job.
S.I., International Banking Rep,
New Jersey
I already reviewed it and it looks perfect. Thank
you very much - you did a terrific job. Last time you
helped me with this (like two years ago), I found work
in two weeks. For a newcommer it was like a record,
I hope I'm as lucky as before.
M.B., Manufacturing Engineer, Ontario
Kim: I am most impressed with the way your company
does business. I will continue to come back to you
as my career progresses and recommend others to do
the same. I know a lot of people looking for jobs at
my company and I would be willing to hand out your
business cards to a few people if you would like to
send some to me. Thanks for all the great work you
and your team has done for me. Regards,
S.S., Lead IT Architect, Colorado
Come on! Hopefully you already know the answer! Of
course I'll be a reference!!!! I talk you up at every
chance I get. Just to give you an idea on how well
your resumes have worked for me, here is a list of
people who have contacted me: CIA, U.S. Secret Service,
Transportation Security Administration, and <snip> Company.
Essentially everyone that I sent a resume to requested
an interview with me. Your resumes work beautifully!!!!
J.G., Executive, Maryland
Yes, I did receive the package. I have been on two
interviews already, and hope to here from either one
any day now. Again nice job on the resume, it is definitely
getting my foot in the door.
D.S., Sales Manager, Ohio
I really believe my resume has been transformed into
a real sales document. I especially like the PDF printout
which significantly highlights impactful career highlights
at a glance (and as you know, sometimes that's all
you get). Money well spent! Thank you and a special
thanks to Karen. Best Regards,
J.K., Director of Human Resources,
New Jersey
Hi Karen,
I would like to thank you for your assistance
with my resume and my job search a few months
ago. I have recently secured the position at <snip>.
Your assistance and advice were invaluable for
me and it was a great pleasure to work with you!
I wish you only the best for the new year and
I hope you have a great holiday season! Thank
you,
A.K., Senior Software Engineer,
California
Hi Karen,
I'm sorry it took me so long to get back to
you. I was out of town for a week. I can't begin
to tell how pleased I am with my resume. You
did a FANTASTIC job!! After reading it, I was
even impressed with myself. My husband, who rarely
says anything more than "it's OK," thought
it was "exceptional and phenomenal." In
fact, your group should be hearing from him shortly.
He was so impressed with your work that he would
like to have his resume rewritten.
Thank you, once again, for the superb job that
you have done. I am truly impressed with the
staff members at Resumepower. Everyone was courteous,
responsive, and very professional. It has been
a pleasure dealing with everyone. Believe me,
I am spreading the word!! Regards,
D.M., Public Relations Specialist,
Missouri
Thank you so much for everything. This has been
the best experience I've ever had purchasing
a service from any company. My satisfaction with
the resume is eclipsed only by the joy I have
knowing I will never have to do my own resume
again. I will be using your services throughout
my career - please don't retire before I do!
E.C., Programmer/Analyst,
Florida
Hi Karen, I haven't spoken to you since March
when you helped me write my resume, but I wanted
to write you this short note to tell you about
my new job! After months of patient searching
I've found a new home with a major national distribution
company, and it's everything I ever could have
wanted in a job. This company has over 500 employees
in 15 cities nationwide, and their Human Resources
department has seen plenty of resumes I'm sure.
But they were very impressed with the way mine
looked, and you get all the credit.
I've been a brand manager in the past, designing
products for <snip>, and that's the direction
I was expecting to go, but this company has given
me a position as <snip>, which gives me
responsibility for 3 brands at once plus the
ability to create more brands as fast as the
company can grow them! I now report directly
to the president. I'm positive that without such
an excellent resume they would not have considered
me for a position at this level. I'm pleased
to say that my salary is now in six figures,
with likely bonuses beyond that. Karen, the money
I spent with your service was repaid to me in
my first paycheck. Thanks so much for your fantastic
work. I'll happily refer anyone to you that needs
help with a new career. Best Regards,
P.D., Marketing & Product
Development Executive, Colorado
Dear Karen,
What can I say, except "THANK YOU," once
again, for delivering an outstanding product,
with no advance notice, and delivering it right
on time. The thank-you letter exceeded my greatest
expectations as has all of your previous work.
I had a great interview yesterday and felt very
confident providing the Regional VP with a copy
of my new resume. I felt the follow-up letter
of thanks was the icing on the cake. You never
know how these interviews will turn out, but
win or lose, I know (thanks to you) that I did
the best I possibly could.
I wanted you to know how much I appreciate your helping me out and what a terrific
job you did on this project. I won't forget what you did for me.
Sincerely Yours,
T.S., District Sales Manager,
Georgia
Hi Karen and Jodie,
I wanted to take a moment to update you on
my job search. I accepted a position last Friday,
and the resume’ you produced for me had
a major part in getting this job. I am going
to be working for <snip> providing computer
support to three Cisco sales offices. The hiring
practice went very quickly. A recruiter in CA
found my resume’ on Monster.com and called
me. I emailed him a Word formatted version, had
a telephone interview at 9AM the following day,
and received an offer at Noon that same day.
So I was hired based on a 30 minute telephone
interview and my resume’, so I can’t
thank you enough for the wonderful work you’ve
done for me. Thanks,
N.S., Network Technician,
Pennsylvania
Hi Karen, Thanks for all your help over the
last few weeks. You were a pleasure to work with
- very organized and professional. I will keep
you informed of my progress. It was really nice
to work with an organization and its people who
not only claim to be professional, but also can
back up the claim by providing first-rate service
with a staff that's not only knowledgeable but
are nice people. Best wishes to you all. Regards,
D.M., VP Operations, Massachusetts
Hello Karen, YOU are awesome!! It looks great
and definitely "sells" my skills, career
accomplishments and....clearly states my career
goal. I have to thank you for your detailed work,...THANK
YOU,THANK YOU!
T.A., Sales Manager, Pennsylvania
Hi Karen,
Kudos to you -- I submitted the management resume
online and got a few hits. I have a meeting with
a headhunter this afternoon. I feel so much more
confident that I have a resume that portrays
me and all my skills. My old resume did me more
harm than good, so I didn't put it out there
like I have this one. I am very pleased and very
satisfied!
F.S., Operations Manager,
Colorado
First, let me congratulate you on an exceptional
job. I was honestly very, very impressed with
the product. You convinced me that I have done
the right thing and hired a very talented group
of folks to assist with my new job search.
C.R., Operations Executive,
Virginia
Thanks so much! I am so glad you wrote my resume
-- and many thanks for suggesting a layout that
mimics my site. This is SO much stronger/punchier/cleaner
than what I had been using prior to meeting you!
I really enjoyed working with you.
I'll let you know where I land. Thanks again.
C.G., Senior Designer, Massachusetts
Hi! I want to let you know that I found a new
job. It is exactly what I am looking for. Thank
you very much for the awesome resume and cover
letter you created for me. You helped me get
my foot in the door to interview in school districts
that I wouldn't have with my old resume. Thanks
again for your help!
B.H., Teacher, Minnesota
I have to say that I am pleased with the product
that you produced and feel strongly that it will
be instrumental in securing my next position.
THANK YOU!...I would again like to tell you how
happy I am with the work that you did and I will
not hesitate to refer anyone to you.
W.F., General Manager, Oregon
Jodie, Thanks for following up. I must say,
I'm very impressed with the level of professionalism
within your organization. My search is going
well. In fact, I'm very close to getting a job
in the field I am interested in...Thanks to my
impressive new resume! Thanks,
L.V., Property Manager, New
York
Wow Karen - you've done it again! The resume
is unbelievable - it's sharp, the content nails
it, and the CompTIA and MCP icons look great
when viewed in MS Word as well as in hard copy.
D.S. (for his brother--gave
resume as a graduation gift), Massachusetts
Without your help I might not be in the job
I'm in now! Thank you so much for everything
you did, you were awesome the whole time, more
than just writing the resume...with the coaching
you made me take a hard look at what I'm really
capable of, and I guess I needed that! Resume
writing and interview coaching were excellent.
The job I'm in is going really great and is exactly
what I was aiming for. Again thank you for everything
Kim, you were great!

Central Office Technician
Good Morning,
Well, I'm speechless. And trust me, that
doesn't happen often. The resume is more
than I could have imagined. I truly believe
you've captured and illuminated the very
best of my professional self. What employer
would not want to scoop me up?! I'm going
to review the draft one more time. But
I think it's a go. I've already recommended
your services to several friends. Thank
you.
L.V., HR Director, Maryland
I want to take this opportunity to thank
both of you. You made the resume creation
process far easier than it would have been
on my own. I am extremely impressed with
the product you created. A week ago, people
looked at me funny when I said that I was
having my resume done professionally. Now
having seen the finished copy, they understand
just what the difference is. The job fair
was not really what I had expected, having
been a rookie in that arena. It was crowded
and really lacked the one-on-one experience
that I anticipated. I will say that I feel
like I held my own with the other participants....and
I know I had a better resume. You should
have seen a few of the faces when I presented
copies to them! Thanks again and I look
forward to working with you in the future.
N.L., Network Engineer,
Virginia
Kim and Karen, Just wanted to let you
know we sent out the final resume for <snip
client name> on 8/8/01 and received
a call today for an interview! Wow! We
are both excited and thankful for your
expert writing skills. Best wished to both
of you and your business.
M.S., New Product Development
Supervisor, Texas
Karen, I must say................................WOW!
You did a magnificent job with this! I
knew that it was missing something and
this really makes a big difference. I think
the overall presentation will most definitely
assist with getting more interviews......you
are so awesome......
C.T., Team Associate,
New Jersey
Great; thank you again!!! Excellent work...As
for the cover letter, you did such a great
job on the resume, I'm game. Please start
immediately!...Thanks again for the stellar
performance.
C.R., Operations Executive,
Virginia
Karen, Wow. I am speechless. After reading
through what you've created, I would interview
myself! Any doubts I may have had about
hiring a professional writer has been put
to rest. Wow. Again, you have done an amazing
job. "WOW" is all I can say.
Everyone I've shown this to loves it!
Hopefully, someone from <Company Name> will
love it enough to want to interview me!
Thank you so much for the wonderful job
you've done. I will be sure to let my friends
and colleagues know where they should go
if they ever need resume help. High regards,
P.T., Technical Marketing
Manager, New York
I am happy to report that I received and
accepted an offer of employment back with <snip>.
Thank you very much for all the help and
support you have given me. I wish you both
the best. Thank you again,
