Resume Conversion ...

Private-Sector to Federal-Style

• Are you using your private-sector resume to apply for federal jobs?  

• Are you unsure about what information is 'required' on a federal resume?  

• Are you at the point where you can't look at your resume objectively to determine what needs to be fixed?  

• Do you have a one-size-fits-all resume, but need something more focused?  

• And most importantly, do you need a new easy-to-follow resume -- one that highlights your unique skills and helps you stand-out from the competition? 

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then let our experienced Federal Resume Writers help you tackle these issues by converting your private-sector resume into a 'job winning' federal-style resume, in both a presentation and on-line format.

Here's what the conversion includes:

• We'll convert your existing resume into a federal-style resume template, which will help the human resources staff quickly locate all your pertinent qualifications.

• We'll ensure all compliance information, as stated in the "OF-510 - Applying for a Federal Job", is present in your resume. If we find something missing, we'll highlight the area on your resume where this information should be added.

• We'll edit the existing content of your resume for: proper grammar; sentence structure; punctuation; past- and present-tense verb endings; improper use of the 'I' and 'my' pronouns; and removal of that ambiguous  "responsible for" phrase. 

• We'll add powerful action words to help your statements stand out.  Words like: achieved; administered; contracted; directed; encouraged; evaluated; produced; recommended; supervised; authored; formulated; negotiated; persuaded; summarized; diagnosed; surveyed; programmed; upgraded, etc.

• We'll provide you with a list of competencies that you should incorporate into your resume based on your occupation and pay level. Competencies like: project management; qualitative and quantitative analysis; strategist; process engineering; accountability; oral and written communication; computer proficiency; etc.

• We'll highlight areas where we feel you need to add more content that will quantify your duties and accomplishment statements, along with suggestions for training, language skills, honors/awards, memberships, computer skills, and professional summary sections.

• Based on a specific job announcement that you submit to us with your resume, we'll create a list of keywords that you need to incorporate into your resume.

The results will be:

• a professionally formatted, easy-to-read resume, that will impress the human resources staff;

• a resume with content that will increase your overall rating, and help you stand-out from the competition;

• peace of mind that all compliance information is included, so your resume is not rejected on a technicality;

• advise that will give you a clear and focused resume and get your creative juices flowing; and 

• two resume formats, presentation and on-line, that will allow you to apply for jobs using any of today's application methods: email, on-line, mail or fax.
