I hired Janet to write me a professional government resume. She sent me a questionnaire that was mostly filled out and told me to changed it. I changed it that night and sent it back to her. She sent me a follow up email accusing me of sending her what she sent me. I told her it was different and I just emboldened the letters. She did not believe me and asked me to send her an updated resume. She finally looked at the questionnaire again and told me that I filled it out. She did not apologize or admit wrong doing. She finally completed the resume. It was a page and a half, even after she told me beginner resumes should be three pages. Two weeks later my dad called her, she was rude to him, claimed she finished with me two weeks ago, even though she did not recall our interaction. She explained she did not have much to work with and that's why it was a page and a half. This is complete bunk, my past career coach made me a resume that was three pages long and much better. Thankfully my parents covered the 350 for the resume because this was a complete rip off. Horrible customer service, horrible resume. She conned my parents and I, she should of had more integrity and said she could not help me. Instead she conned my family out of 350 dollars. I will never work with her again. And all I can say to anyone considering her services is stay away. The resume she could make is not worth the headache of dealing with her bad attitude. read more

Janet provided me with excellent customer service. She offered honest feedback on my job announcements and did a complimentary job search on my behalf. Janet found an announcement I would be considered best qualified for and delivered me a professionally written resume. I am now confident I will get an interview. Janet was approachable and patient with my questions. She was also efficient and timely. The total time from my initial consult to a great resume was 3 days (It would've been even quicker if I was fully qualified for the announcements I provided.) I would use JM Advisory Services again if I am looking for a career change. I highly recommend Janet. read more

History

Established in 2012.

After over 30 years of HR experience, I opened this professional resume writing services in Arlington, Virginia with first-hand knowledge of what it takes to get your resume to the Hiring Official. As an experienced resume builder, I help my clients get the jobs they want. I've had great success in creating customized resumes for my clients that get through the initial HR review process and to the Hiring Official for consideration. I work alone and offer personalized resume writing and CV writing services that are priced reasonably. Your success is my success. My specialty is creating a federal resume that helps clients find and acquire jobs in the federal government, but the same rules apply in the private sector - I offer both - with as much success in each. Connect with me and let me help you create a customized resume and land you that job you've always wanted. With a targeted resume, you'll get noticed and get hired!

Meet the Business Owner: Janet C.

My name is Janet Christ (pronounced as "Christ"mas). I have 32 years of professional HR experience and retired as the Chief Human Capital Officer (HR Director) for a federal agency. As the former Director of Human Resources, I know firsthand, the ins-and-outs of applying for a federal job, and what's needed on your resume to get through the HR review process, and in the hands of the Hiring Official for an interview. And that's how you get the job you want. My process is very simple, and my rates are very reasonable. Just provide me with your current resume, and a link to the job that you want. If you haven't found one, I can conduct a federal job search for you, but you're on your own in finding a job in private sector. I will review your resume against the qualification requirements indicated on the job announcement and will let you know if additional information is needed to make sure you qualify.

In short: If you have doubts about your career, relationships, or yourself, Emily works her magic…read moreto transform your perspective into a workable goals that empower you to action. Should you try it? Oh yes!! I'm on my second program with Emily because she's made such an impact! Ambience: Anytime I'm ever talking to Emily or in circle, I feel so supported. In sister circles, the mood is always positive, even when one of us is having a rough day. We express what's on our minds and ask for the type of feedback we want. In 1:1 calls with Emily, she directs the call based upon what's most heavy on your mind, and destroys blockages in your life, one by one, until you feel complete and questioning why you ever second-guessed yourself in the first place! Emily is truly magical. Service: If I ever had any doubts, questions or concerns, Emily was able to explain thoroughly and work through my objections one by one. She dedicates the time necessary to address what's going on in your life in a way that feels so natural. It's like talk therapy - only she is specially trained to help you take positive, motivated action that serves you in the best way possible. Location: Emily can work with you both near and far since she communicates with you via email, phone, and Google Hangouts. The ladies in my sister circle were spread out across the US, and I feel very close to them after our time together. 3 Key Tips: 1) Be sure you're ready to set aside time to complete weekly accountability assignments. They ultimately serve your personal goals and aren't difficult - but you've gotta commit to change if you want to see improvement. 2) Emily's group programs are amazing! You'll be supported by Emily and a few other women who can give you insights on your goals that wouldn't otherwise come to light! 3) (general life tip on this topic) Learn to meditate. It's the most incredible tool you can use to give your mind the clarity it deserves. Recommended Programs: Freedom is Sexy or any program incorporating both sister circles and 1:1 coaching!

I feel so motivated, empowered, and entirely supported by Emily and the programs she has created. I have found most success with 1:1 coaching, though Emily also offers group circles that are fantastic as well. The environment that she creates for these circles is welcoming, non-judging, and very meditative. During my 1:1 coaching experience, I was shocked by how wise and understanding Emily is. When you're speaking with her during a coaching call, she has the power to distill your thousand-word rant into a short, direct paragraph that completely and 100% captures what you just said.....and then flips your perspective on how to deal with it. The biggest benefit to working with Emily is having someone listen to you and then offer words of wisdom for how to get where you want to go. Emily has a way of getting you to connect what's in your head and your heart, then guides you through the action steps you need to take. Of course, nothing changes if you don't commit to doing the work! The accountability support that's offered is fantastic. Emily also offers insight and advice based on her training and knowledge of goddesses, moon phases, and such (in a completely non-woo woo way). I always left a call with a clear idea of what I need to do to see amazing change in my life. I am beyond happy with my decision to change my life with Emily's wisdom and guidance.

Most of which were located in South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia. I came across 7 Nightingales in the middle of my search and they set the bar high. Both, Sarahs' and Kerris' bios were quite impressive. The website was also very easy to navigate and overall, pleasing to the eye. During my searches, I noticed a lot of other companies that highlighted the founder, but creatively worded that one of their many "qualified" writers would we working with you. That didn't really sit well with me. It's almost like a bait and switch... So with that said, I liked that there are just two people at 7 Nightingales. You definitely get what you see, with no surprises... As much as I liked 7 Nightingales, their prices were just a little out of my comfort zone. I don't have a college degree and I'm in a job transition due to recently moving to South Carolina. So I just wasn't sure if it was worth me spending that kind of money on a resume service for the type of job I'm looking for. However, after interacting with 2 other companies, I came to my senses real quick! Believe me when I say, it doesn't matter if you fly a private jet or drive a forklift, blue collar or white collar, 7 Nightingales has the background and knowledge to provide ANYONE with TOP NOTCH resume/ career services. You only have one chance to make a first impression. So why not make it your best... Having a career change in a new state, during a pandemic has completely taken a toll on my confidence. But regardless if I get the exact job that I'm looking for or not, I know for a fact that my resume and cover letter is the absolute best that it can be thanks to Sarah. She has truly uplifted my confidence and I couldn't be happier that I chose her to do the job. Lastly, Sarah was very responsive from beginning to end, through email, text, and phone. To top it off, she even checked on me about a week after I received the final product. Sarah is very down to earth, easy to talk to, and non-judgmental. I felt like I was her top priority every time I interacted with her.

I was also interviewing with other employment agencies and companies so my eggs were not all in one basket. I knew I had to get a job and I wasn't standing around with a nail file in my hands. When Joy Goldsmith at Charles Foster contacted me, I had been employed by another agency by 1 day. I was selling houses in the 500k to 1.5 million dollar range in Mt. Pleasant SC...I was a bit of a NJ Snob so I didn't want to go back to hustling. Moving forward, 2yrs to the day after our first encounter, Joy received my resume and called me again. The same company from 2yrs ago showed interest in me and wanted me to work for them. I was SHOCKED!!! Being in a Hostile and extremely negative, immature, unprofessional, unethical, and emotionally stagnant and economically depressing job, this was a welcoming Blessing. It all happened on Michaelmas, and he is my favorite Archangel. Charles Forster has been working with prestigious companies nationwide since 1969. The recruiters all have their specialties (Engineering, Education, Sales, Production, Information Technology, Aviation, ETC) which facilitates in placement of potential candidates based on college education, military, years of experience and career. I called Charles Foster and gave them my email address. I filled out an online application, took a battery of Microsoft office tests ( Excel, Word, Outlook, Powerpoint and a problem solving test-50 questions in 12 minutes, I finished only 45), went on 2 interviews to meet potential employers and a Typing test. The following day ( 9/30-today), I took a drug test, criminal background check, credit check, DMV test ( she told me about my long list of speeding tickets from yrs ago in NJ). I am loving the screening process. True to Charles Foster's word and professionalism, My skill set was paired with their best client which met my needs. Salary is good, location is awesome and there is upward mobility...I am extremely happy, Grateful, Thankful, Blessed, and Humbled. I think that was a world record for me, a new job within 4 hours of resigning. I had no plan, nothing waiting but I had trust in God and I had a gut instinct that Charles Foster could help me. God is Good. Put him first and everything in life just FLOWS. I recommend this company 1000 percent!!!!!

I hired Janet because of her incredibly impressive background (30 years as a top executive in the government) and knowledge in HR. She not only knows what people need to GET the job they want, she knows ALL the tricks and creative ways to edit a resume to ensure you have the best chance to get to the interview stage. I've shopped around prices and not only does she have the best pricing, she also has the best response time and professionalism. I got the job I wanted because of Janet's editing skills and services she offered me. She literally helped change my life. I 100% recommend her services. I have no clue how she has anything other than all 5 stars, but there always seems to be one miserable person on every page who enjoys giving bad reviews just for the fun of it. As a multiple time previous customer, I can honestly say this lady knows her stuff, is caring, and works fast! Thanks Janet!!! You rock! read more

This was an excellent value! I have twins in college looking for summer internships and my husband was looking to refresh his resume. All I had to do was send Janet the details on my twins and she created professional resumes tailored to meet the needs of college level job seekers. My husband's resume needed to be shortened to two pages as he is older and had too many entries and unnecessary information. Janet cut it down through formatting and detail in ways we could have never figured out on our own. She was professional and courteous throughout the process, being sure to verify information and always promptly responsive to any questions we had. I highly recommend her service and will definitely use again when my twins graduate and are looking for full time employment. read more

For anyone that is looking to get there resume updated and some career counseling, I highly recommend Janet Christ of JM Advisory Services. I was referred to her by a close friend. I reached out to her and right away she ask me to send her my resume that I had. She was very detailed in explaining how the the process works. After sending her my resume, she got right to it. I had my resume back to me within the same day!! Now that is outstanding business service. My resume looked amazing, she knew how to put the right words in, not embellishing on what my experience but using all of her HR experience and being a director in that field, she knows what employers are looking for. Thank you again Janet and if you are need of resume help, she is the one to go to!! read more

Janet is extremely knowledgable when it comes to what hiring managers are looking for. She doesn't waste your time or money by letting you apply for jobs that you have no chance of getting. And while I might think I would be great for a position, I understood her reasoning for why I wouldn't necessarily be offered the job based on my experience. Her resumes are extremely well written and without using her services there is no way that anyone would know how to properly apply for a government job. Janet no only helped me write my resume, but she also prepared me for the interview once I was referred. Janet has years of experience working in Human Resources for the government so it only makes sense to hire her if you are trying to get a government job. read more

I was connected with Ms. Janet while seeking help finding a job in the federal government. In just a short time, she dramatically improved my resume as she was able to translate my previous experiences into professionally tailored versions for each position I applied to. Not only that, but Janet is extremely diligent with her communication and forthcoming with her professional advice. The end result is a product that is going to make you feel confident about applying for that opening. I cannot recommend her highly enough! read more

Janet is incredibly good if you want an application/resume designed to catch the eye of government Human Resources.
