The Essential Resume is a standard, professionally written, ATS-compliant resume designed to support lateral job moves and same-industry roles at your current career level.
This service is intended for job seekers who want a clean, competitive resume that reflects their existing experience accurately, without career repositioning, salary optimization, or transition strategy.
While the Essential Resume does not reposition you for higher pay, leadership elevation, or a career pivot, it does ensure your experience is presented clearly and professionally using formats, keywords, and competencies that applicant tracking systems (ATS) are most likely to parse and recruiters are most likely to search for, so that you stand out in the candidate pool.
 
 
Who This Service Is Best For:
The Essential Resume is ideal for job seekers who:
Are applying to roles similar to their current or most recent position
Want to modernize an outdated resume to meet current market standards
Need to add recent experience or remove outdated roles
Have never had a professionally written resume
Want to land their next role efficiently without the longer job search often associated with career pivots or salary growth strategies
 
Scope of Service:

One ATS-compliant resume
