Professionally Designed Resume
+ Powerful Job Search Coaching = Success!


Dear Motivated Job Seeker,

Are you like so many professionals who
  • Send out resumes over the internet with no results?
  • Are unsure if your resume clearly speaks to your target market?
  • Know how much you have to offer but don't know how to communicate your strengths without "bragging?"
  • Know your resume falls short of selling your skills and abilities?
  • Wonder how many opportunities you may be losing out on due to a mediocre resume?
I am a certified professional resume writer and award-winning job search coach with over 16 years of experience. I have written more than 800 top-notch resumes for professionals in many, many industries . . . giving them the edge they needed to reach their goals.

View several resume samples here.

I am also one of only a handful of job search coaches that has walked step by step with over 600 executives through their job search, beginning to end. My specialty is showing my clients how to increase their salaries and shorten their job search by tapping into the hidden job market. I can easily show you what works and how to avoid those things that will cause you frustration and tempt you to settle for much less then you are worth. I can give you everything you need to make your job search both turnkey and successful.

Did you know that:

Used correctly, a professionally written resume combined with customized job search strategies directly contributes to more interviews, better positions, bigger offers and a faster career transition... in other words, it pays for itself.
After working with me, my clients often are able to change industries, land higher positions and salary packages ranging on average from 5k to 35K more than their previous salaries.
Today's job market is tougher than ever. Every edge you give yourself means less competition, less frustration and more career options for you.
If you are currently unemployed or know you will be in the near future, how much is your job search going to cost you each month in lost wages... thousands or tens of thousands?

"Mary Elizabeth's help proved invaluable. My resume is just awesome; I could never have written it so amazingly well and it easily attracted the interest of the industry I wanted to move into."
E.S., VP Operations, Orlando, FL

"Despite the lackluster economy, I landed a job in the hidden job market within 30 days applying Mary Elizabeth's job search techniques and having her craft my resume. My new role is an equity position so I stand to make 10 times more than I did in my previous position! Before hiring Mary Elizabeth, I wasn’t sure about the value of having a professionally written resume. However, thinking about the money I had invested in my college education and also the the substantial loss of income it was costing me to be in an unfruitful full-time job search, I realized it made no sense to skimp on the document that was going to compel companies to interview me or not. I would say to anyone who is on the fence about having your resume professionally done by Mary Elizabeth: … just do it! You are making a wonderful investment in yourself and your career!"
A.M., Construction Executive. Pennslyvania

"I hand-delivered the new resume you created for me to the high-end hotel/resort at the top of my “dream job” list and I didn’t even make it back out to the parking lot before they called me on my cell asking me to come in for an interview. I was hired the very next day! The hiring manager said my resume was one of the best they had ever seen and I know I secured this position over professionals with more experience and even higher degrees then I have. This resume has helped me secure my dream position in a super competitive job market and put my career track in perfect alignment with my goals. Thank you so VERY much."
D.M., Sou Chef, Austin, TX


Here are just a few examples of how professionals just like you have benefited from my resume design services:

  • The 51 year old corporate director who used his resume to land his dream position in his targeted location (out of state) at a $32,000 pay increase with over five weeks of vacation!
  • The sales and marketing executive who traded his outdated resume that was getting him absolutely no interest for a brand new resume that sold his skills and abilities so well (AND boosted his confidence) that he landed multiple interviews and two GREAT offers in less than 30 days!
  • The Vice President who landed a MUCH higher position (and salary!) as COO through transforming his resume into a branding document that captured his successes in multiple areas... and captured the interest of his now current employer!
  • The laid off QA director whose new resume helped him land a key position with an international company and a $50,000 increase in salary!
  • The COO fired from his last company whose new resume positioned him for a much more profitable and rewarding CFO position with a thriving company...and a 50% increase in bonuses!
  • The overseas high-ranking military officer whose resume caught the eye of a top US company who offered him a fabulous position...and a $20,000 raise!
  • The attorney whose redesigned resume helped her reach her goals of landing a counsel job for a top corporation...and a $30,000 increase in salary!

A small investment in YOURSELF and your career can result in formidable salary increases, bigger and better titles and more fulfilling roles (maybe jobs you have only dreamed about!). In other words, your investment in your career easily pays for itself. Rarely does anyone achieve great success alone - there is nearly always a team, a spouse or a coach behind it, making what winners and high achievers do look easy! See a few resume samples here.

"After retaining Mary Elizabeth to design my resume and provide me with job search coaching, I secured a position with one of the top companies in the world and increased my salary by $40,000! My previous commission-driven salary took a hit in 2009 and I was really afraid how this was going to affect my job search. Thanks to Mary Elizabeth I had the savvy, the strategies, the resources and the marketing material to reach my goals. Thank you! –"
M.B. Executive Recruiter, Portland, OR

D.L. Racine, WI


Let's get down to it...money is tight...why invest in a professional resume?

Precisely because money IS tight, not to mention the job market is super competitive! Many highly qualified professionals are passed over for the jobs they really want because their competition simply had a compelling resume that sold his or her skills and helped make that great first impression.

And don't forget, since this is a business investment, your purchase is tax deductible (consult with your tax advisor for details)!

"I consider Mary Elizabeth's resume writing abilities to be among the tops in the nation"
P.D., Vice President of Sales, Savannah, GA
