Career Intelligence

Executives who suspect their resume and LinkedIn profile are not doing them justice are the people Career Intelligence is built for. It is an executive resume writing practice where the owner, a multi-certified writer, works one to one with each client from start to finish. The business describes its model as high touch and low volume, and says work is never passed to a subcontractor.

Who writes the documents

The owner holds six certifications, including the Certified Master Resume Writer designation, which the business says is held by fewer than 50 writers worldwide. The business also notes that its writer once worked as a recruiter and as a magazine writer, so that documents are shaped by how hiring managers read and by professional writing craft.

Packages for different needs

Three named packages bundle the services. The first, called Great First Impression, suits executives and high achievers going for senior roles who need an achievement-based resume and a cover note package. A second, Give Me An Edge, is aimed at executives and consultants who want a comprehensive set of documents but have a large network and are comfortable using it to find a new position. The fullest, I Want It All, is for executives who want the complete set: a branded executive resume, a LinkedIn profile and targeted distribution of the resume to executive recruiters.

Individual services

Branded executive resumes are designed for people who need to set themselves apart and stress their value proposition. They bring out core strengths and impactful contributions in an engaging modern format that reflects the individual's personal brand. The practice treats a resume as a marketing document that sells the candidate to a buyer, not as a dull list of past duties.

Optimized LinkedIn profiles are written to show up in more recruiter searches and to engage readers, with the achievements and the reasons behind a career set out clearly.

Career strategy sessions, offered in thirty or sixty minute lengths, serve people who want to prepare for interviews, build a job search plan or talk through obstacles in a one-to-one conversation.

Advice published alongside

The practice also publishes writing on topics such as resumes for internal promotions, handling networking events and building a personal brand on LinkedIn.
