How Much Does Your Resume Writer Cost?: Part 5
Part 5 of the Series: “Hiring a Professional Resume Writer: A Series to Help You Decide”
I know you’re worried about spending cash on a resume. I know that worry gets multiplied if you happen to be out of work, if you happen to be responsible for a family, if you have a mortgage, rent, or any other expenses that wear on you if you don’t have the income you wish you did.
So why am I telling you it’s wise to hire a professional resume writer? First, it’s about the math. Your salary/365. Every day you don’t work is your salary/365 you don’t have. A professional resume writer can shorten the distance between today and your first paycheck.
How Much Does Your Resume Writer Cost?
But I’m also telling you to evaluate the cost of the resume writing service and choose your resume writer wisely. Generally speaking, you can get a resume on craiglist.org for $35 on up. You also can hire a professional boutique service for several hundreds of dollars. How do you know how to choose?
Interview Versus Worksheet: The Great Debate
This discussion of cost, then, begs the question of whether you should engage a resume writer who works from interviews and consultations—or worksheets alone. The proven 4-step process involves an extensive personal consultation; I use this process with my concierge, high-level service at Inscribe / Express. And this service is exceptionally effective, but perhaps out of reach for some people who need a solid resume but don’t necessarily want to invest significantly at this time..
However, you might be working within a budget. I am 100% confident that the resumes I write using the worksheets designed specifically for the smart, cost-conscious customers of Olympus Resumes get interviews as well. The process is less hands-on, but it’s good, and it works.
But neither of these services are document-in, document-out services. I’m still the same writer I always have been, with the same success rate. So if you choose the highly discounted resume service offered by Olympus Resumes, you can be 100% confident that you’re getting superior service from a real resume writer—just at a cost you can feel 100% comfortable with.
