My previous employer was acquired in January 2023, and I've made it through three rounds of layoffs--the most recent just two weeks ago. Seeing the writing on the wall, I knew it was time to start looking for a new opportunity. That's when I connected with Craig Kagel at vegasemployment.com. He not only created an excellent résumé for me but also revamped my LinkedIn profile. Since then, I've had multiple employers viewing my profile and recruiters reaching out directly--all at a reasonable price. If you want it done right, give Craig a call. read more

5 star review of CRAIG KAGEL, President Advantage Resume/ Vegasemployment.com Craig Kagel has provided me with exceptional, full service, several times over the past decade. His service quality operates at the highest level of professionalism. He did the research and created the credentials file assisting me for submission to executive recruiters, and human resources. In addition, his services included career coaching, and he assisted me in the development and the compilation of a credentials file, which included, but was not limited to cover letters, a resume summary, and a Curriculum Vitae, to accompany my transcripts, references, and other documents required by employers. While my own personal editing expertise goes back 40 years that includes editing a corporate financial graduate textbook and more, I look to Craig for the confidence to coach me and update my career strategy regularly, including editing my cover letters, résumé, Curriculum Vita, and other credentials file contents. We first met in his office where he interviewed me. Then, he helped me synthesize ideas and formulate a career search strategy and detailed plan. He offered an add-on to research different companies and different websites, which I accepted gladly. These additional services helped me immensely in my job interviews, in response to the documents created and edited by Craig, et al. For this reason, I was more prepared with the information needed for my job interviews. I highly recommend his rush service and his research as add-ons. His career transition and coaching recommendations identified additional opportunities for me based upon his assessment of my skills and information provided to him during our conversations and interviews with me, in person, at his office, via emails, and on the phone. His suggestions have been instrumental by moving me along in the selection process, as a direct result of the credentials, editing, and updating that Craig provided for me. It only took 13 applications for me to get two career job offers, which matched our career strategy. This is an exceptionally high response rate, and not typical results. Yet, these are the highest response rates of my entire career. Craig Kagel and Advantage Résumé continue to be my first call and most valuable editor for all career, writing, editing, and credentials requirements. I look forward to benefiting from additional services provided by Craig and Advantage Resume to meet my career needs in the future. ***** Five stars! Best Editor, My Choice. Dr. Michael J.

Recently I requested GREAT recommendations for Resume Professionals. I was very purposeful and selective about those I was requesting this special referral from. Voila! I got Craig. I "got to work" with him. What a privilege. Most professional, yet human demeanor. Timely and thoughtful. Invested in the best possible outcome. Craig crafted my extremely lengthy, roughest rough draft of a resume and nonexistent Cover Letter. Result: professional, polished, using all the words, details and descriptors I was unable to pen. He is able to concisely and beautifully mold a final product you will be very pleased with. Next up, I'll request his help with my LinkedIn profile. Thank you, Mr. Craig. read more

Let me start by saying I have never used a professional resume company before reaching out to Craig at Resume Advantage. Boy was I wrong. The resume I received back from Craig is the best and most detailed resume I have ever had and I cannot recommend Craig's work highly enough. He highlighted my work accomplishments in ways that stand out and have the kind of impact I was failing to write myself. His ability to mold and shape my work history towards my desired position have inspired me to reach for even higher positions and I would encourage you to reach out as well. They say dress for the job you want, not the one you have. It's the same for a resumes. read more

I have not been "out there" in the job market for almost 30 years, so when it came time to create a C.V. due to my pending retirement, I was admittedly ill-prepared for the modern world of job seeking. This is where Craig Kagel and Advantage Resume entered the scene. I needed my cover letter and C.V. to accurately reflect both the important aspects of my 40 years of experience and education, as well as how I intended to use it all in the next stage of my endeavors. Well, I believe that Craig was masterful at accomplishing this. At the initial stage -- trying to find someone who could take on this task -- Craig got back to me IMMEDIATELY, indicating what he could do for me if I hired him. He stated very succinctly his experience in this area, and I was very impressed. Next, he listened to what I needed, and got me a detailed quote that met my needs, and my budget. He worked quickly and thoroughly, getting drafts out to me in a timely manner, offering suggestions as I provided information to him, and staying on top of me with requests for approvals. He knows what employers are looking for, so his suggestions made sense, and added "extra" that I believe an employer will be interested in. Finally, after all was said and done, the end product was FANTASTIC! Great Cover Letter, and a Great C.V. If you are in need of a resume, C.V., and/or accompanying documents like cover letters, teaching philosophies, etc... Craig is the man to go to! read more

I highly recommend Craig, he asked for my old resume and after one meeting he got all the necessary info and in short time created a very professional resume, I applied for the jobs I liked and yes i got calls for interviews really fast. In like two months I got the job I really like. Thank you Craig for my resume. read more

Craig was great! He completely changed my resume in a timely manner. He also completely redid my LinkedIn account. Very professional and very nice! I've had multiple interviews since the resume and I couldn't be happier. If you're needing help with your resume I can't recommend him enough! read more

I have been using advantage resume over time for more than 6 years. Definitely recommend this place. Craig has always been thorough and very detail oriented. Every time I have used this service I have been satisfied. Thank you very much for your help! read more

I absolutely love my new resume Craig created! His keen attention to detail, professionalism and down right love for his craft made my new resume come to life. Craig's work choice and penmanship reminded me how awesome I am while reading my resume. If you want the best. Run don't walk to Craig. Mahalo... read more

Can't say enough about Craig's professional and knowledgeable service's. I needed my Resume updated and put on a flash drive. He's has 35+years of experience and it shows, thanks again Craig. I'll be recommending you to anyone else who needs help with their resume, have a wonderful fall season and THANK AGAIN for being Awesome ! Sincerely, Andrew Lowe read more

Craig was a nice guy who took the time to meet with me and discuss my resume needs. I hired him to write 2 cover letters and to create 2 different versions of my resume. The final product didn't meet my expectations. I paid $265 for documents with numerous formatting and grammatical errors. I could've done a better job myself using an online resume builder. He offered to make changes but honestly, I just didn't want to continue to waste my time going back and forth. read more

So overpriced! The resume I received was full of grammar and spelling errors and not what I paid for. Craig was a nice guy, but it felt like I was being hustled. He uses previous clients resume and paste it on my resume! Honest Reviewer read more

I referred my son-in-law to Craig Kagel at Advantage Resume and it worked out great. He reported back to me that the company picked his resume out of a stack of others and helped him get the position he was looking for. With much of the employer's searches today being automated, Craig is great at defining the key words and skill sets that make the resumes get selected for interviews. read more

The best decision I could've ever made to jump start my professional career. I had had my same resume for seven years, and would constantly tweak it depending on the job I was applying for. I came to Craig looking to turn my years of only service/hospitality experience into a professional resume worthy of public relations firms, and marketing. I graduated college with that degree and have yet to use it, feeling intimidated with my lack of experience. With my resume how it was prior to Craig, no firm would bother to glance my way. Within the hour of our interview, he took the time to get to know me, my past work and life experiences so that when he crafted my resume it cast me in the best light possible. He sent me the first draft within a couple of days, and that was all I needed. My cover letter and resume were finely polished and knowledgable in the direction I wanted my career to go. I feel 100% confident sending this resume out to prospective employers. It's evident that he truly cares about his clients and taking them to their highest potential with his professionalism and resume writing expertise. When I emailed him back telling him thank you, he then additionally sent 12 attachments with tips, websites, search firms and extra reading materials to help further the job search. Character like that is hard to find these days. For anyone looking to pursue a job and don't think your resume or previous work experience would be adequate, Craig will take your resume and turn you into an all-star. Again, best decision. Thank you Craig! read more

I just had Craig take 2 of my poorly written resumes and create one well written resume that I picked up on March 17, 2017. I sent a copy to a recruiter that I used about 7 months ago on the 21st and received a call the next morning. I had an interview later that morning and a second interview the next day. I started on my new career today! The recruiter said my new resume was like day verse night and asked if I wrote it myself. I told her that Craig had wrote it and she told me to let Craig know that she was very impressed! I know if I hadn't enlisted Craig's professional help, I would more than likely still be sitting home looking at less than desirable positions on my computer. Make the investment TODAY in yourself. I learned that I am my own worst critic and it is refreshing to see what Craig was able to assemble from my two previous resumes. Craig took the time to "interview" me to be able to emphasize my strengths and wrote an eye catching cover letter to snag the attention of any prospective employer. Craig also included a wealth of extra resources to aid me in my career search that I would not have ever known of. Thank you Craig! I am glad I found you and these positive Yelp reviews are what made me choose you (not to mention I like to support members of my community)! Keep up your great work!!! read more

This is one of those rare times I feel compelled to leave a review. It is not often we come across someone who truly deserves a rating higher than 5 stars. Craig, the owner of Advantage Resume, is probably the best in the industry. With his exceptional writing skills he is able to articulate clearly what I am unable to do. He asked relevant questions, listened and then understood what I was trying to achieve. He then created a masterpiece of a resume and cover that will surely stand out from the rest. Having such an amazing resume and cover has increased my confidence and excitement to proceed with the next steps of my journey. Thank you read more

Used Advantage resume twice over the last two years. First time was to produce a resume for me. The second time was to update my resume. I worked with Craig, the owner. His work is meticulous! Posted my new resume on Indeed. Almost immediately began getting calls. Craig is a master at taking your work history, training, credentials, etc and putting it in a professional document that is beautifully prepared. His fee is fair and reasonable. Highly recommend Advantage Resume. Your new resume will absolutely get the attention of prospective employers. Craig does a great job!! Mike S. Henderson, NV read more

I was looking to get my resume updated and wanted to have a set of fresh eyes and a different opinion to better my resume and I came across Advantage Resume & Desktop Publishing. Working with Craig was so seamless, he listened to what I was looking for and most definitely delivered. My resume looks amazing!! His pricing is reasonable and he is easy to work with. I definitely will be recommending him to my family and friends. Thank you Craig for the outstanding job on my resume! I am one happy customer. read more

Highly recommend ! Not only is Craig an exceptional man, he's amazing at what he does!

I am new to Las Vegas! I moved my whole family to this house that we bought last year as a second home, possible rental or investment property. Leaving Hawaii after owning a small business in Honolulu for 25 years I found myself back in the hunt for a job. I haven't needed a resume in almost 3 decades so, I didn't really know where to begin. It was almost frightening. That's when one phone call to Craig at Advantage Resume/ Vegasemployment.com saved the day. I scheduled a meeting for the next week and before I knew it I was sitting comfortably in his office discussing a strategy to get me back on the market. In less than an hour Craig laid out his ideas and gathered the right facts to begin. He said it would be about 7 days to see a rough draft and I was fine with that. Four days later I opened an email to find a professionally crafted resume to proofread! The writing style, organization and timeline that Craig proposed was amazing! My resume was printed and I've already found employment after just a few interviews! I highly recommend this service as it will take a lot of the worry and anxiety you might be feeling off the table. Experience and professionalism are paramount - and quite frankly - obvious when you speak with him. My deepest gratitude and respect. read more

I met with the owner, Craig Kagel - and was immediately impressed with his professionalism and his "go-to-it" - ness. We discussed what I've accomplished and where I was headed and then arrived at a game-plan for putting my best foot forward in a tight job market. He summarized my skill set in a concise and well written cover letter, and my resume was fine-tuned so that I have the best opportunities for making my next career move. We discussed his creative media and publishing services as well, which highlight and showcase achievements outside of traditional resume writing for corporate business. In summary, Craig is a true professional and I'm confident his skills and professionalism will be an asset in your professional career endeavors. Sincerely, Jack Gottsche UCLA BA SFSU MBA read more

I was looking for help on my resume and after some research decided to go to Advantage Resume's. As soon as I walked in the door, I knew I was in good hands. Craig was super nice, energetic and quick to understand my needs. He reviewed what I had, made many suggestions starting with the format and after a short time my resume looked very professional. His prices are reasonable, especially because he keeps current with today's marketplace and trends in resumes. I left the office confident that my resume would get me in the door for interviews. Well, I was right! After circulating me old resume for months with no hits, I received 3 callbacks and two interviews. Thank you Craig for your excellent service and great experience. I will recommend his service to my friends. ---Jeannette V. read more

Craig was a great guy to work with. He turned my 3 page resume into an efficient and professional looking resume within just one week. He takes the time to understand and get to know you and your history before making any modifications towards the new resume. Great guy, great service and responsible price for the outstanding quality he provides. Would definitely recommend him to anyone trying to add a professional image to their profile. read more

Very professional. Mr. Kagel was able to have my professional resume with cover letter completed before the deadline I had set.

Craig is the best! He was able to schedule me in right away for an appointment and he made my resume amazing. I have gotten a response for almost every job I have applied for.

All I can say is Craig knocked it out. Considering I have a checkered past with Multiple careers such as Construction management, bartending as well as self employment this makes it difficult to put the words together sometimes.

I can't thank this guy enough. I Look forward to dealing With him on any modifications that may be necessary as this new job journey grows and if your finding any trouble with a creating your own resume don't hesitate call him and make an appointment.

I should have done review months ago. Craig did a great job writing my resume. I've had numerous HR managers look over it they all loved it. Definitely money well spent. read more

Beware! This place is a scam. I met Craig to help me with my resume and CL and I paid +200 for both of em and oh man I regret it. He's so busy that he does a very poor job, he made my resume so unprofessional and put a lot of stuff I didn't do and cram a lot of useless stuff on one page. The resume and especially the cover letter looked very generic. I never write any reviews but I need to alert yelpers out there to save your money and do it yourself. read more

Craig helped me a lot. Brought life to my tired resume. He also wrote an ipressive cover letter for me. Im very satisfied!
