Is it Really Smart to Write Your Resume?  No!

Hi.  People call me Matt.  An expert resume  writer like myself can help you in many ways. About 95 percent of my clients have been hired. I have also shortened many frustrating job searches.

Your resume will be designed, written, edited and/or revamped by Matthew Greene himself NOT by any staff or "writing team" or mystery part-timer with less experience than I have. I am the ONLY person you will deal with.

Each resume that I write or revamp or improve is designed to be effective in getting you interviews. The secret of my success as a resume writer is that I know how to "sell" or market your value to employers, even in a tough job market. That's why I wrote my book,
Winning Resumes
(Penguin).

  As long ago as 1985, my professional Resume Service on East 40th Street, New York, NY was rated #1 out of 307 resume writing offices nationwide. My resumes work and the fee for revamping a resume starts at only $95!.

Writing your own resume will cost you valuable time and thousands of
$ $ $ in missed job opportunities. [Samples won't help you much because they were designed and written for others.] Do you know how to "market" yourself strongly in a resume and cover letter? I can help you do that.

To sell yourself short on paper can be a BIG mistake! You may not get to first base with a self-written resume. It's the applicant with the best resume that usually gets hired -- not the one with the best credentials.)

"Thank you for taking my 'mish-mosh' and turning it into such a professional presentation of my accomplishments."
— E.K., Mansfield, OH

"Thanks for revamping my resume for the financial services and technology industries.  You have given my resume the "sell" it lacked and I have had a few good interviews. "
— R.B., New York, NY

Times have changed and what employers expect to see in a resume has also changed. Nowadays, you should create one or more versions of your resume to help you explore more options. Why?

First, most resume templates or wizards are outdated or too limited to be of any value. (Many employers refuse to read, and major job sites won't accept, the "skills" type of presentation.)

Second, how well do you sell yourself in your resume?  In today's job market many resumes need to be revamped or improved or redone — even those written in perfect English!  A professional resume writer will know how to focus yours and where to add and present your important "sell".

Third, writing can be a nightmare because tough decisions need to be made! What is the right layout or style to use? How long should it be? What must you highlight? What needs to be left out?

  In the past 18 years as a full-time resume writer,I have written or edited or critiqued about 14,000 resumes — for entry level to supervisory, managerial, senior executive, and consulting positions.  I have helped to get many people hired. (See my 257 Success Stories / Testimonials.)

As a resume writer and job search and interview expert, I have assisted recent college graduates, I.T. managers, software engineers, CIO/CTO executives, administrative managers, operations managers, finance executives, engineers, sales/marketing professionals, and senior executives from IBM., Pfizer, Merrill Lynch, Honeywell, Boeing, American Express, Hertz, AT&T, Xerox as well as high-level CONSULTANTS of every kind.

  My background includes working as a Human Resources Manager in a Fortune 500 company and as a corporate recruiter and "headhunter".  In 1983, I graduated with a Master's degree in Occupational Psychology from the University of London.

What This Resume Writer Will Do for You

  • I will communicate with you by phone, email, or in person.  (A completed form or questionnaire is rarely enough.

  • I will develop or select the best design or layout and the right length to give your resume the "eye appeal" that will impress all screeners.

  • I will discover and identify your best "selling points" and present them in the first 10-15 lines.

  • I will ensure that your keywords and accomplishments jump out at the reader.

  • I will "clean up" your data.  Experienced writers know what to downplay or omit (the so-called "red flag items").

  • Your "bullets" will now be strategic and smart — not pretty dingbats as before!

  • Your entire resume will be scannable in only 20 seconds.

In short, a skilled writer like myself will market your value to today's employers in the best possible way.

Resume Keywords "Sell" You to the Reader

Nowadays, recruiters and computers scan your resume for "keywords".  Highlighting the right keywords is crucial.  They are the secret of winning resumes.

Matthew Greene strengthens your resume by focusing it and giving it the best selling message.  He will highlight your best "selling points" or value.  What to leave out may also be VERY important

  Greene will impress recruiters when he rewrites or revamps your resume and cover letter.  Starting with very little information or with a homemade resume that has not worked, he has the expertise to turn your background into a "winning" resume and "blinding" cover letter.

Your revamped resume will impress employers before the interview, make a winning impression during that meeting, and continue to "sell" you afterwards (when the hiring decision is made by committees).

  Matthew Greene can also create two or more versions of your resume to address the needs of different audiences.  Nowadays, some job seekers need to use more than one version because focused resumes work much better than a "general" resume.

Greene excels at showing employers how you could fit their needs.  This is how you get hired.  It is the art of effective presentation and it WORKS!
