When making a resume, you have
to decide whether you :
- Hire a resume writing service
firm for a fee ranging from $95 to $500 or even more;
- Write it yourself from
scratch on your PC, asking your friends for advice, using
articles, books and maybe guided by your old resume;
- Buy a resume builder software
package for about $50 that provides you with a variety of
formats and allows for tailoring and updating.
Let’s examine each of the above options:
Option 1: Resume Service
If you decide to hire a resume service firm, be extremely
careful in choosing the right one. A good resume-writing service
usually costs from $200- $600 or more. Employment counseling
agencies, which normally provide a resume-writing service
in addition to some contact information, often charge from
$600 to $1500 or more. A secretarial-type service makes your
resume look good and (usually) error-free for a fee from $
95 to $200, but a clean, attractive resume is not enough to
secure an interview.
Option 2: Write your own resume by yourself
If you are brave enough to choose the second option, be prepared
to have a rough time deciding which documents (journal articles,
books, etc.) you should read before starting to write. One
10-minute search on the Internet, using just one search engine
and one online bookstore, results in more than 85,000 listings!
The number of books, applications and web sites on subjects
related to job-seeking strategies and resume writing is so
vast that a person who starts reading on January 1 will come
to December 31 having read only 30 percent of all published
materials-IF he or she reads every single day, 24 hours a
day!
Option 3: Resume Software
If you decide to buy a resume builder software, think about
Easyjob Resume Builder,
the newest and most powerful resume writing tool. Easyjob
did a tremendous legwork for you conducting bibliographic
searches, reading books, examining the existing software,
surfing the net and taking the best of all these materials
for you.
As a resume writing expert said:
“While most of the software packages
can guide you through the resume-creation process, you
can't rely on them for personalized career advice. As
with any computer program, the quality of the finished
product is only as good as the information you provide.
These packages ask questions, then format your answers
into a resume.”
(Jason R. Rich) |
EasyJob is more than that, it asks questions,
moreover assists you in giving responses and so making the
input to your Career
Information Database, as well as selecting the output
for each resume, according to the principle of “the
right resume to the right employer at the right time”.
EasyJob is like having a resume
wizard at your beck and call, 24 hours a day 7 days a
week.!
With EasyJob you'll never need to pay for new resume versions,
updates, employer profiles (it has a build-in database of
11,000 U.S. employers seeking you), or any other feature that
other services frequently charge for. In fact, the more you
use EasyJob, the less it costs!
