Secure higher profits, transform your image – Copywriter & Consultant with guaranteed results

Perhaps you've already experienced the scenario too many times.

You apply for a job. Not even necessarily your dream job. Just a job. And then the game begins. We're referring to the waiting game, that unpleasant time period that's so well known among most job seekers. You may even make a few phone calls during this waiting period, pleading with the hiring manager to at least give you a chance.

And then it arrives.

It's a letter from the Company you applied to, and is the most frustrating of all "Dear John" letters on the planet. This type of letter usually has an opening line that thanks you for applying. Then the letter clearly states that the position has already been filled. As if that's not insulting enough, the letter closes with a simple statement. "Your résumé will be kept on file for the next six months."

You sigh. "But I was never even called in for an interview!"

Rejected, you go back to the want ads, hoping next time to land the job you know you are qualified for.

Then the process starts all over again ...

Did you know that your résumé is the most important piece of marketing material you possess? It holds the power to slam doors of opportunity shut or fling them wide open. And that power is linked to how it's crafted.

After all, hiring managers are busy people. Few of them have time to "read between the lines," as the cliché goes. They need to know, not guess, that you're hirable material. And a well written résumé is exactly what communicates this fact. You have only a matter of seconds to bypass the reject pile. If you stand out from the other applicants, you'll be catapulted to that coveted "interview" pile.

All of Tiffany's résumés are custom-tailored to fit your exact needs. What she will give you is a finished product that brings results.

No, Tiffany cannot guarantee that you'll be hired by a specific company, but she can promise that you will be called in for at least a few interviews by some company.

That's because the résumé is what gets you noticed. It's what springs you ahead of the competition and gets you called in for the interview. That's the purpose of your résumé: interviews. Once called in, the interview is then up to you. It's your chance to shine.

What makes Tiffany's résumés unique is the care she takes in crafting them.

She starts out by gathering as many facts as possible. Tiffany want to know what type of position or career field you're interested in. If you have one, she likes to look at an existing résumé. And then comes the interview.

Tiffany uses the same skills to interview you as those used to interview for her award-winning feature articles. She will chat with you either on the telephone or in person and literally get to know who you are. Most of her clients say that Tiffany's interview with them actually prepared them for their interviews with prospective employers!

What's more? Sometimes you have skills you are not even aware of. Tiffany is trained to hone in on those abilities and communicate them on your résumé.

After the interview is when the magic is done. Tiffany sets aside a considerable chunk of time to craft your résumé because she wants to make sure it's as near-perfect as possible. She truly under-charges her customers when it comes to their résumés because of the time and attention she always devotes to them.

Once the process is completed, which usually takes less than five days, you receive an e-mail from Tiffany. Attached to the e-mail are three versions of your résumé and/or cover letter: Microsoft Word, ASCII, and PDF files.

The PDF version will allow you to open the file and print it out exactly as it's designed. You'll need the Portable Adobe Acrobat program, which is available for free, to do this. The ASCII version is a generic text file. This version will allow you to easily copy and paste your résumé into online job boards or e-mail it to prospective employers. Tiffany also sends Microsoft Works or WordPerfect versions, if requested.

Every day that goes by without an effective résumé could be causing you to lose interviews. That in turn translates to lost wages and hence to lost money. Are you in your ideal job yet? If not, then stop wasting money!
