This service is designed for people who want to improve their chances of being selected for an interview. In today's employment market, where an unprecedented number of people are seeking jobs, it is hard to stand out and be noticed. Different ways resumes are viewed, whether by a person or initially vetted by an ATS (applicant tracking system), it is important to highlight your skills as relevant to the job you're applying for.

I have over 7 years' experience in management roles, selecting staff and reading numerous resumes. My experiences also includes working for the government departments where selection criteria are paramount to further consideration. Complementing this, I have further 9 years' experience working in an executive recruitment firm, where I have recruited technical professionals as well as CEOs. I have seen great and absolutely terrible resumes and cover letters and know what employers are looking for in both the public and private sectors.

I have a strong knowledge of the job market and will work with you to ensure the best possible outcome is achieved. I have assisted people to prepare job applications for jobs in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Hobart, Adelaide, Perth, Darwin and regional locations across Australia.

Resume and Curriculum Vitae
In today's competitive job market, it is important to stand out from the crowd. Secure more job interviews by emailing me with your concern and I will do my best to assist and prepare a professional resume for you. The resume will be written in a professional format, tailored for your preferred role and industry. I will work with you to understand your achievements and responsibilities and create a document that will improve your chances of succeeding in your job hunting efforts.

Cover Letter
While it is slowly becoming outdated, many employers won't even consider a candidate who doesn't include a cover letter in their job application. In my experience, applicants who include a tailored cover letter, are more likely to be short-listed for jobs, as it indicates commitment and initiative. I can tailor your cover letter for a specific job, or write a general cover letter for you that you can adjust to suit different positions.

Selection Criteria
Working in Government and having to apply for such job myself, I understand completely the difficulty in addressing selection criteria. The majority of government employers require applicants to address selection criteria in their job application. Partnering with you on this, I
will ask you to provide them with specific examples that demonstrate how you meet each selection criteria and prepare a strong document in a preferred format to address the required criteria.
