  • If you are on the fence thinking about whether or not you should hire a professional resume writer (especially if you are looking for remote work along with the rest of the country right now), let me assure you that the answer is YES! The difference between my old resume compared to the resume that Sarah put together for me was like night and day. I quickly went from constant automatic rejections to multiple interview requests, and landed a new job within a week! Sarah is exceptionally skilled at her craft, and the entire process was easy and painless. She is incredibly personable, and I love that she begins the process with a webcam call so that she can get to know you as well as find out about your personal goals. I highly recommend Sarah and her services!

  • Despite the business owner being my mother, don’t see this as biased. Aside from coding resumes and cover letters, Sarah did a phenomenal job doing my resume as a professional truck driver. Landing me a $60,000+ year job. If you need an amazing resume, I can’t recommend this woman enough

  • Sarah reached out to me right after I had been laid off to help me update my resume. She took a novel and turned it into expertly edited short stories of my professional life. I am forever grateful and recommend her to anyone looking for a refresh!
