Sallyann Tracy – Human Resources
Columbia, SC (February 2012)

Hi Jessica,

I asked Virginia Franco to give me her supervisor's email so that I could let you know what a terrific job she did on revamping my resume. I had been unemployed for over a year when I decided to go ahead and spend the money to have my resume professionally done. As an HR professional, I thought that the resume I had done for myself was good enough, but apparently it wasn't.

Two weeks after working with Virginia on my new and improved resume I was offered (and accepted) a job. Your company is highly rated on various websites and I'm sure it's because of people like Virginia. She was friendly and engaging and clearly her work speaks for itself.

I feel an enormous sense of relief at being able to return to the working world and I believe that Virginia played a significant part. I just wanted someone in your organization to know.

Sincerely,
Sallyann Tracy

The resume was great. I was accepted to 5 of 9 MBA programs I applied to. I'm expecting to be admitted to two more which I'm 99.9% sure I will get. Pretty much 7 of 9. Maybe all 9 but it's safe to say I will be admitted to 7 of them.

The resume had great reviews. I got accepted into my top choice. Also, one school mentioned she has never seen a resume like mine in the full-time, part-time, or executive programs which she said was nice. Thank you again.

Michael Harvey
Portage, MI (October 2011)

The quick transformation of an ancient resume and the addition of a cover letter has enhanced my professional profile to present myself in today's job market. I appreciated the insight and advise provided throughout our correspondence which is a valued quality and again, thank you.

I look forward to future projects with you and Great Resumes Fast.

Chris F.
Chesterbrook, PA (September 2011)

I wanted to wait six weeks before getting back to you to see how well my updated resume was rec'd - frankly, I'm amazed at the results your work produced. I have been BOMBARDED with calls/e-mails from recruiters and companies - I'm up to almost 70 inquiries in four weeks of having my resume on Monster anonymously. Some people have called me back and raised their hourly bill rate for no other reason than I simply didn't return their first call!

The funny thing is, I'm not even seriously looking, especially now that my wife got back to full-time much faster than we anticipated - I only put up the resume to see just how well it work. Now I know - I have strongly recommended the company (and you specifically) to several folks who are looking around. Just a phenomenal job, and worth every penny I paid.

Gaurab H. – VP & Head of Project Finance
San Francisco, CA (August 2011)

I just wanted to inform you that I got a job as VP and Head of Project Finance at a San Francisco-based company. I wanted to thank you for your help with my new resume, as I think it made a big difference in landing the job! I really appreciate your help.

Cynthia Rojas
Simi Valley, CA (May 2011)

I want to thank you for all your help! You were easy to talk to, the process was quick, and the result is great. I will definitely recommend your services to everyone I know.

Marisa Barnes – Health Care & Pharmaceuticals Consultant
Centreville, VA (February 2011)

As a consultant who provides a rather unique service, I struggled with how best to present myself and my business to prospective clients. Unfazed, the writers at Great Resumes Fast took on that challenge for me and created an exceptional LinkedIn profile and professional resume that not only accurately describes my skills and services, but places me directly in the marketplace fully prepared with a promotional portfolio. I cannot thank the writers enough for their commitment, time, and expertise. To me, what they accomplished in such a quick turn-around time is nothing short of miraculous.

Briana Martindale
Middleburg, FL (February 2011)

This resume looks so fantastic and I am ecstatic with it! I could have never created this myself, or made my experiences sound so articulate or qualified. Thank you!! I can't tell you enough how thrilled I am with how they turned out! I love the thank you letter as well, and am positive that these will yield great results. I am beyond thrilled and so confident in the end products. You have been an absolute pleasure to work with! I would recommend both you and Great Resumes Fast a thousand times over. I feel very assured that my documents are just what I need to set me apart from all of the other countless applicants. This reference page, just like the resume and cover letter, look better than anything I could ever create or even hope to create!

Fred Fisher – Executive
Middleburg, FL (February 2011)

I have been overwhelmed with the amount of calls and interviews!! This is a wonderful thing!! I want to thank you personally for all of the hard work and effort you put forth to help me with my resume. You were wonderful to work with and your skills as a resume writer are unbelievable!! I would recommend Great Resumes Fast to anyone looking for a resume development company. My goal was to achieve an executive level position outside of the normal field I was in for the past 10 years. Guess what? You helped me achieve it!

Donna Strickland – MS, RN, CNS-BC
Denver, CO (December 2010)

Dear Jessica,

I wanted you to know about my amazing and fabulous experience with Sue Walker, professional resume writer, with your company Great Resumes Fast.

I have been independently employed for the last 21 years and am making a huge career move by returning to the health care environment. My CV was updated, although totally inappropriate for today's market. I had no idea what I needed to do to compete in today's market, where most job searches are impersonal, uploading one's resume to a computer who reads it first (how bizarre is that!) and tosses the resume out if it doesn't contain particular "keywords" and then, if you are lucky, passed on to a human who then is still looking for these magical keywords. So, needless to say, despite my advanced education and credentials, years upon years of valuable experience, my current resume in no way represented me. I have been floundering for months.

I did my research on resume companies, found Great Resumes Fast online, and decided to go with your company to develop an Executive Resume for me. I was sold on your company because of the conversation that was promised with the writer. Not all companies offered that (and their prices were similar to yours!), and I knew that without a conversation(s) with the writer this could not be a successful co-creation process. I can't begin to put into words how happy I am with my finished product. I'm not just happy, I'm THRILLED! I am so excited and proud to have a document that represents my true self, talents, and skills. I cannot wait to present this to clients as I go forth in my job search. I am just so happy with the outcome!! Hear the applause and accolades!! I am more than a satisfied customer. I am AMAZED at the transformation of my old resume to the current one that was produced by Sue. I now will be able to move ahead in my job search with far more confidence, grace and ease. That is priceless! I know I am repeating myself here, but I just can't say enough about how pleased I am with the end result.

I'd like to rave a bit about Sue. Sue quickly called me after I submitted my request. She was able to take my resume and the voluminous amount of material I sent her, drill it down into a beautiful succinct format that included a Branding Summary, Skills and Areas of Expertise (which has all the right "keywords"), Selected Achievements, Education & Certifications, Professional Experience, Awards, Research & Publications, and Volunteer Work. I have a very diverse and complex work history. She listened closely to me, asked very good questions to understand my situation thoroughly, drilled down the essence of who I am and put those words on paper such that my accomplishments are clearly described, are concrete and measurable, and beautifully laid out. I so appreciated Sue's warm and directive style. She was able to coach me through the process in such a way that I totally felt like I was in competent hands and I trusted her wisdom completely.

I just wanted you to know how grateful I am that I found Great Resume Fast. You could not have a happier customer!

Thank you Sue, and Jessica for your services!
They are truly life changing for me.

Buzz Payne – Principal Architect/Sr. Consultant

I just got an interview for my dream job at Disney based on my great new resume!

Thank you Great Resumes Fast and thank you Amy!

George Pottenkulam – Team Leader - Lender Processing Services
(October 2010)

Choosing Great Resumes Fast was one of the smartest things I have done. After struggling with my old resume for a few months I sent my info to Great Resumes Fast. The staff worked quickly and successfully with my information and developed a superior resume. Within a few weeks I had several calls from multiple well-known companies.

Great Resumes Fast gave me the opportunity to be able to choose where I wanted to work in an economy where the options were limited and the market was flooded with other qualified candidates. I have since joined a great company and the main reason was my resume stood out from everyone else.

I have referred the services of Great Resumes Fast to many family and friends who have also chosen Great Resumes Fast and I will continue to do so.

Martyn Brown – Vice President/IT Executive
Andover, MA (October 2010)

I'd just like to say that you were an absolute pleasure to work with. I was very apprehensive about taking the step to get help with my resume, but you made the entire process very comfortable, and extremely worthwhile. I was very impressed by the way that you were able to take in all my raw material, including long rambling conversations, and create a very clear concise picture of my career. My wife even knows what I've done now, I was never really able to explain it to her in the past.

I cannot thank you enough.

Susan Monroe – Operations Management/Business Consulting
Montclair, NJ (August 2010)

I wanted to thank you for helping me re-position myself through a new resume that I desperately needed. When we first spoke, I knew you sounded very knowledgeable and confidant that you could help me even though we only spent about an hour on the phone. I didn't expect you to produce the best resume I have ever seen in 4 days. Sending me job descriptions of where you thought I would fit was brilliant, and I even applied to some of those jobs after I got my new resume. I have seen testimonials before but this is the truth. Within 3 weeks of sending out my new resume and cover letter I had 4 phone interviews with serious companies for consulting jobs, and I never did consulting before. You highlighted my transferable skills and the phone started ringing. I have now completed 3 of the 4 phone interviews and all 3 are moving forward. One of them is with a large, well known global business services company.

I really have to give you credit. You were able to bring out my most valuable skills and make me shine. This is the first testimonial I have ever done but you were spot on and whatever happens with these jobs, I know more will be coming.

I have been looking for a year and a half with my previous "professional" resume. Never got a call.

Dean Carter – Information Technology
Atlanta, GA (May 2010)

Thank you very much for your hard work over the last week. The improvements to my resume are nothing short of amazing. I am very appreciative of the knowledge, skills, and sense of humor you brought to this task.

I have already talked with several colleagues about my positive experience with Great Resumes Fast in general and you in particular and I will certainly continue to do speak well of you both.

I wish you all the best and I thank you again for all of your efforts on this document that is so crucial to my professional life.

Kristina Cummings – Financial Advisor
Jacksonville, FL (February 2010)

My experience in working with Great Resumes Fast far surpassed any expectations that I had. I first contacted Great Resumes Fast to have my resume updated because it had been over 5 years since it was last done. Jessica and her staff are truly gifted at what they do. Never would I have expected that my resume would have turned out the way that it did. The friendly professional service that I received did not go unnoticed. It was so refreshing to work with a company that put their customer first and made sure that I was completely satisfied with my resume. I would and have recommended to friends and colleagues Great Resumes Fast.

MaryPat Chiavaroli – Academic Business Administration Management/Finance
Louisville, KY (December 2009)

Jessica Holbrook is a master of her craft. When I contacted her about preparing a new resume, I was on the fence about seeking professional assistance for my resume, but after ten months searching for work I knew I had to do something. I had revised and edited my resume so many times it had morphed into something that lacked focus. In this job market, a resume needs to be sharp and specific to make it through the vetting process. Jessica interviewed me and listened to me talk for nearly an hour. She heard what I said and keyed in on strategic skills and accomplishments and she understood where my heart was. I was so pleased with the document she prepared. My new resume demonstrated my background and my personality and reflected me so much better than I could ever do myself. This new document boosted my confidence too, which is challenged during layoffs.

Jessica is a true professional and I offer the highest recommend for her. I am blessed to have a job now and it happened shortly after I began using my new resume.

Brian Henry – Vice President of Operations
Jacksonville, FL (October 2009)

Jessica is a detail oriented professional who has a great depth of knowledge regarding resume creation and career management guidance. As an 18-year industry professional I had not updated my resume for some time. When I needed to get back into the workforce I found my resume was not working for me. I had initially turned to much higher-priced services, but still found significant barriers.

Jessica was able to suggest a fresh approach that not only emphasized my strong selling points, but provided a feature-laden resume that was formatted to work effectively with latest HR selection criteria. Jessica was patient, supportive and an awesome resource... and the services provided by her company are a significantly better value than anything else that I have found.

I would highly recommend Jessica's services to anyone in need of a resume overhaul or career management guidance.

Aprel Phelps-Downey – Entrepreneur/Business Owner
Knoxville, TN (March 2009)

Jessica is a professional individual that is extremely detail oriented and works to bring her clients that extra touch that puts their resumes and cover letters at the top of the pile. She takes the time to find out a client's career goals and utilizes that information to provide detailed results. Working with her has been a fantastic experience!
