I took some time off (a year & half) from my career in commercial construction management to pursue…read moremy desire to be an artist. I then wanted to get back into my career but in practicing law rather than construction management. I need to condense a two page resume with 10 yrs of experience in commercial construction work with intermitted legal jobs into a new one page law resume. A friend recommended ED as being instrumental in him landing his current dream job. I looked up the site, saw the price tag then became very apprehensive as funds are in short supply. Here's the thing, I needed a completely revamped resume and I was fresh out of ideas by my own efforts. I IM'd with Hazel prior to my purchase and she answered my questions which calmed my fears about the decision. She then emailed me about my purchase within 30 mins. I was then paired with Trent (Sr. Resume Writer) and he emailed me within 24hrs of my purchase. We set up a time to speak to make sure he was clear on my objectives. I was relieved and encouraged when he shared his own professional background as I felt I was in good hands as to what I needed done. He sent me a first draft which required very minor edits and the final quickly followed. I got exactly what I paid for... a totally revamped one-page resume that I can edit to suit the position sought. I shared the final draft with some attorney friends who felt it was exactly what I needed. I'm very happy with the end product, the customer service I received, the turn-around time. I would recommend them to friends looking to change things up. Hopefully soon I'll have a new legal position to boast of!!

I was laid off recently and needed to revamp my old resume as soon as possible. After reaching out…read moreto Executive Drafts, they promised a quick turnaround and did not disappoint! They emailed back and forth with me for 24-48 hours, sharing each draft and taking my feedback into consideration for the next draft until my resume looked perfect. On top of that, I needed a cover letter for an interview the next day and they worked with me to turn around one of the best cover letters I've ever seen. They are fantastic writers! Overall, it was a great experience and I would absolutely use them again.

One word: AMAZING. I had never used a professional resume writer before, as I considered myself a…read moreproficient wordsmith and felt my resume was perfectly fine. I mean, I had even assisted friends in perfecting their own and would pat myself on the back for doing so. Plus, who knew and could translate my work experience better than me, right? WRONG. Oh, how I was wrong. First, I sent Alexa my current resume and she wanted to set up a meeting. I was thinking, "Why? I already sent you my resume... get to work." But during the meeting Alexa asked very probing questions that get you to think deeper about your processes and experiences. After the meeting, she went off and did... well, magic. When I got the final product, my eyes instantly teared up and I shouted HOLY MOLY! Well, if I'm being completely honest, I shouted the less censored version of that phrase. It's magical, I'm telling you. I feel like I can do anything with this resume. As I'm thinking about it at this very moment, it makes me want to stand up and do the Superman pose. And I'm pretty sure if I printed it on actual paper, it would somehow come out as pure gold. Funny thing, after she sent it back she wanted to set up more time to go over any edits I may have. I was like, "WHY?! THIS. IS. PERFECTION." And here's the best part: I submitted my golden ticket to a job opening and TWO HOURS LATER I was contacted for an interview. I'm not kidding folks. This is the real deal. Alexa unknowingly leveled up my life.

I took my time selecting a service to rewrite my resume, knowing there are many options out there…read more I worked with both Dia and Donna throughout the process. One thing I wish I had known beforehand is how important it is to have a clear idea of the specific type of role you're targeting before starting the resume process. During a job search--which can be incredibly stressful and uncertain--I didn't feel that my experience or challenges were fully understood or acknowledged. Navigating a job search takes strategy, reflection, and support, and unfortunately, I didn't feel there was much empathy offered throughout this process. If I could do it over again, I would work with a career coach first to gain clarity and direction, before investing in resume services like this one."

I engaged Personal Touch Career Services in September 2019 to get them to review and tweak my…read moreresume. they had been recommended by a friend. I paid my $498 and they did what they do, changes were made etc, and before long I was sending my resumes and letters were being sent out but I got zero response. I still didn't feel it was saying the right things the right way for my industry so a few more changes were made but I had the same lack of results. I stepped away, changed a few things myself and sent it to people direct and I got a better response and even some work. I chalked the money spent, at a time when I couldn't really afford it, and the experience I had up to it being 'just one of those things' that don't work out for me and my situation and I moved on. Not long after I got a year long contract as well as some other work (but that was through my work in general, a recommendation, and my self-tweaked resume). With both their resume and the one I did, I got very little pick up via job ads. Flash forward to late 2020 and PTCS reach out to get feedback on the service I received. I explained how it hadn't worked for me and I had drawn a line under it, and we set up another consultation. I also provided copies of the current resume I had made. Donna, who is lovely, ran tests and gave me the results, and that was kind of it as 90 day options had long run out. The most significant advice I got was to open a Jobscan account/subscription and read chapter 11 of the book I got as part of my package. Should I have gone back again within the 90 days? Maybe, but I wanted to draw a line under it and try a different approach (which included getting industry friends to input on my resume). All I know is that while Personal Touch Career Services have been great for some people, and I'm delighted that's the case, working with them didn't get results for me. Also, if you're reaching out after 90 days to get feedback and offer help and the main response is, 'We can't do what we could have done because it's after 90 days,' that doesn't feel like the best result to offer. It certainly won't make me look at giving PTCS more of my money. They might work for you, they're certainly nice people to deal with, but for someone working in journalism and production for over 25 years, it didn't bear fruit in my case.

It also enabled him to set up a high school game plan on the jobs he took in high school, along with classes and other activities. The summer between junior and senior year, he worked on his personal statement essay along with the individual essays for the colleges in which he will apply. He had a great head start on these before his senior year classes began. What I love about having Piotr, Jack and the team at Delehey College Consulting behind us, is that they helped preserve the relationship we have with our son. They were there to ask questions and bounce ideas off of. They gave him great feedback on the essays he wrote and even though our son gave them to us to read, the feedback that Piotr provided even though it was similar to our feedback and thoughts, carried more weight as he was the expert in my son's eyes. I don't yet know the outcome of my son's college applications, but I do know that without Delehey College Consulting and Piotr's advice and guidance my son's application would not be as strong as it is and he wouldn't be as prepared as he was at the start of his school year which alleviated a great deal of stress and even got us a thank you for the push to get the essays mostly completed before the school year began. We interviewed several College Consultants and went with the consultant that my son felt most comfortable with and that he could work with the best. Delehey College Consulting wasn't the cheapest option, but in our eyes it was the best option and provided us the best bang for the buck. My son and I have known that we could ask any question and it would be answered in a short amount of time. We know that they will be there for us until my son determines which school he will attend next school year. I honestly can't say I've been disappointed even slightly throughout the contact we've had over the last 2 years and into this school year. If I had another child, we would use Delehey College Consulting for him/her as well. We believe that much in the service and guidance we have received.

Jack was extremely thorough and helped my son get accepted to his first choice within 3 weeks, in the first batch of waitlist applicants! What really differentiates Jack is his ability to motivate!

I would highly recommend Jack to anyone.

My sessions with Nina were exactly what I needed! In eight short sessions I was able to connect the dots between all the twists & turns I have taken. The homework was a perfect complement to our face to face sessions & was simple in that, I only had to read & answer questions. It took some soul searching, as I would expect it to when it comes to my seemingly never-ending search for a rewarding work life. I am so thankful I found Nina, & feel like she came along at a critical time in my life to help me paint a clear picture of how I want to move forward in my career. I know myself so much better, I know what I want to do, & I have the confidence to go out & do it!
