With so many people unemployed, now, more than ever, you cannot afford NOT to have a professional résumé that demonstrates what you can do for the employer and is strategically written to set you apart from your competition. Your resume needs to make the qualified list of candidates to interview, then you need to ace the interview.

One of the most overlooked aspects of the job search is writing a professional thank you letter after the interview. Handwritten thank you's are a thing of the past. Think strategy. Take advantage of the interview. The thank you letter is another opportunity to capitalize on what you learned during the interview, outline a strategy, convince them you are the one to hire, and win the job. I have PROVEN strategies that work!

I can help you with each step of the job search process. I am a genuine career professional who takes your career serious. You can trust that I will showcase your talents, knowledge, skills, and abilities using my 20 years of success in helping my clients get jobs! I am sensitive to the economic conditions and realize my services are an investment in your future, that is evident with my 20 years of success in the careers industry. The value of the return on investment will continue to pay off throughout your career. You can count on me to be your partner throughout your career progression.

You have probably heard that resumes for today's job market must be more than a listing of past employment and education. Your resume needs to sell YOU! You must tell the employer what you can do for them. Times have changed and your resume must reflect not only changes in writing styles, but cutting-edge formats that capture the short attention your resume will get. Camille will create READABLE resumes! If your resume is not READABLE, it will not make it to the hiring official. It has to target several audiences from the machine (electronic) scanner, personnel clerk, human resources specialist, and the hiring official. Your resume must tell the employer what you can do for them almost immediately. Camille writes resumes and marketing documents that showcase your knowledge, skills, and abilities that will help you stand out from the intense competition! You will have a visually-appealing, creative, keyword optimized resume that will be a successful marketing tool!

General Resumes. My philosophy regarding a 'generic' one size fits all resume is this: generic resume=generic results. I want my clients to get more than generic results. I want my clients to get the interview and the highest pay possible. A generic resume will not target the employer and their needs and could easily eliminate you from the candidates to interview.

• Is your resume competitive, selling you, and aligned with your job target?
• Is your resume getting you interviews?
• Is your resume focused and targeted to the position and organization you are applying to? If not, it should be in order to be EFFECTIVE!
• Have you worked for years and never needed a resume until now?
• Is the format outdated?
• Are you overwhelmed with the whole federal employment process?
• Does your resume need the "technology" and professional formatting touch using conservative, yet appealing, graphic design features?
• Is your resume going to look like the others generated from a word processing template?

I can help you! My expert technical writing, editing, typesetting background, and modern resume styles will capture the attention of the reader and keep it! I use design features that will help you stand out from the crowd, yet the formats are extremely professional and readable, not fluff, and no distractions!

I am excited to help you:

• Increase your confidence by creating a resume specifically designed with a target audience in mind.
• Overcome problems in your employment background (job hopping, gaps in time, demotions, or overqualified), or even age issues.
• Find jobs that you are qualified to apply for.
• Get more interviews, better job offers, and hopefully more $$$.

I provide services for clients at various stages in their careers. My specialty is federal government resumes and packages required for federal government employment, but I serve other industries including military, private sector, and public service.

I provide several methods of resume presentation:

• Electronic (Email)
• Plain text (.txt) for online resume builders, applicant tracking systems or Resumix.
• Portable Disk Format (.pdf) for perfect printing on any printer.
• Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx) for your use.
• Web Portfolios (Instant Access for you and the employer with a downloadable resume with the click of a mouse)

• You will receive personal, customized service from a Certified Federal Resume Writer/Coach with a myriad of career credentials, not a salesperson.
• I will analyze your current resume to determine the best strategy for your job target.
• I consult via email and by telephone after the initial review is complete to provide you with a strategy and quote for your project.
• I write keyword-based, compelling, high-visual impact resumes created in Word. If you do not have Word 2003 or 2007, please indicate what version you use.
• I provide discount for clients who have a need for other critical elements in the job search process such as Employment Interview and Salary Negotiation Coaching--a 60-minute session with Camille!
• You will get a .doc or .docx, .txt, and .pdf files emailed to you at the completion of your project.
• FREE—Interview Tips!
• FREE—Lifetime storage of your document! When you need it updated, we have it! Call for a reduced rate for revising! However, it is always a good idea to store a copy of your final documents in one or two locations in case of a natural disaster or other data loss.

Think about this. Everyone has differing employment history, skills, achievements, education, and target audiences. Should everyone pay exactly the same price no matter what their needs are? I do not think so, therefore, the scope of work, fee, and strategy varies from client to client. This kind of attention to detail is what you can expect.

I will need to analyze your most current resume. If you do not have a current resume, you may request worksheets ($25 up front fee, but deducted from project). This process will ensure we are writing a marketing tool that targets the position(s) you are seeking and guarantees your satisfaction. After I receive this information, I will email the quote to you.

I write it right the first time! Sure you can pay 'cheap' rates elsewhere, but why pay to have it done over. I write it right the first time! You will get tremendous value from my work. I like to thoroughly understand your needs so expect some collaboration, input, and working together. Most of our communication can be done via email so you can review and provide input when it is convenient for you! If you are successful, I am successful! If you have any questions before beginning the resume development process, feel free to email me: camille@ccCareerServices.com.

To be fair to each client, fees are based on the work that needs to be done. Fees can range from $350 for college graduates to $750 for Federal senior executive service resumes (these are from scratch prices) for the resume, depending on the scope of work--federal or private, employment history, achievements, background, education, along with the strategy is different so the scope of work and fee varies from client to client.

Please email your resume to Camille@ccCareerServices.com for a quote along with the job announcement (see process below), or job titles you are applying for and any information that is not on your resume and I will analyze it and give you a fair price quote based on the scope of work. Thank you!

THE PROCESS

• Email your most current resume and any updated information can be put in the email.
• If you are applying to Federal government, I ask that you send me your top three choices of announcements to review. It takes approximately two hours to do a full review of three announcements,  your resume, develop a strategy, and write the quote.
• If you are sending the job announcements from www.usajobs.gov, PLEASE go into the announcement, SCROLL down to the bottom, click on EMAIL A FRIEND, and send them to me at: Camille@ccCareerServices.com.
• Please DO NOT send the number alone because I want to ensure I am analyzing the same announcement you would like to apply to. Many announcements have the same number.
• PLEASE do not copy and paste the URL into the email. USAJOBS.gov is having difficulty when clicking on html links and sometimes goes to the wrong job announcement. To ensure I am reviewing the right announcement, please send from the Email a Friend feature stated above.
  
• If you do not have a job announcement, I will need to know your target audience--company(ies), and/or job titles you are targeting. Please do not send a blank email with just your resume. Please tell me what you need, who/what you are targeting, and where you are in the job search process so when I get to your quote, I will have the information I need.
  
• I will analyze, review, and email a quote to you, along with the Request for Services Form. Please allow two business days for a quote.
  
• After you receive the quote, all you have to do is complete one form, fax it or email it to me, and pay.
• Your project will then be scheduled and you will be on your way to obtaining your career goals!

You may call me toll free at 1.877.522.8899 (Mountain Time), but I will need to analyze your resume along with the job announcement in order to determine an accurate quote. If you do not have a current job announcement, please provide the title for the position you are targeting and email your most current resume to camille@ccCareerServices.com. If you do not have a resume, please indicate in your email. I have worksheets you can complete. The initial fee is $25 to be paid via PayPal before release of worksheets. Thank you! I look forward to navigating you and your career in the right direction!
