As a retired police officer I was looking to get back into the working world but found my resume outdated and catered to my 30 year policing career. I contacted Estelle who appeared very pleasant and a wealth of information in resume writing. I felt confident that she would be able to assist me in revamping my resume to detail oriented high quality resume. Over approx a two week period Estelle and I corresponded over details of my resume. When I received the final draft I was extremely happy with the outcome. Not only did I receive my resume but I also received a beautifully written cover letter with instructions on how I could make modifications to it as I applied for a job to start my second career. . I would highly recommend Estelle Smith to anyone who is looking for professional resume writing

Before I chose to see a career coach, I felt uncertain about my career direction and I felt like I…read morejust didn't fit in at my workplace. I kept applying to the same types of jobs because I didn't know what else I could do. The coaching I received helped me to figure out the type of work that would really suit me. It made me realize how marketable I really was and that I do have plenty of options (that I didn't know about before). I learnt how to talk to employers about my strengths. Now after the coaching, I really feel really confident in interviews. One thing I did not expect (but looking back, I am very grateful for) was learning some easy and manageable ways to deal with stress when things got rough in my workplace. In fact, it was only when I lowered my own stress about work, that things began to get clearer about my future and what I needed to do to succeed. Looking back, I'm not sure how far I could have gone if I hadn't done it this way. The coaching at Careers by Design was highly effective and I recommend them to anyone struggling with a career problem. I checked out various companies before deciding to try out Careers by Design. I'm so glad that I chose them because they gave me personal attention and really cared about my success. It was one of the best decisions I have made for my career!

My initial email to Craig was returned within a matter of hours and an appointment was scheduled for a Friday morning. I fired over my resume and some other requested information before hand. Even before our Friday meeting Craig had emailed me to let me know he had an opportunity that would most likely be of interest for me and would discuss it further in our meeting. Creative Niche is very thorough in the their set up. There's a fair bit of paperwork to fill out on your initial visit but they're just trying to set you up for success by getting a solid foundation of who you are, what you're about, and what you're looking for. Once the paperwork was out of the way I sat down with Craig and he explained how they work and the way they structure things. After that it was all about me. We went through my resume and delved into my work history, talked about the things I liked about where I was before and what I wanted to get out of my future career path. While it's early in my relationship with Creative Niche, so far it has been an excellent experience. April challenge 14/30

Buyer Beware In…read moreApril 2020, I had the misfortune of being referred to Martin Buckland, the owner of Elite Resumes, to assist me with my resume. My experience working with Martin left me questioning the legitimacy of his business. Martin charged me $850 to prepare a resume that can best be described as a joke. His work was filled with sloppy errors and, in certain instances, was completely nonsensical. Perhaps even more concerning is that Martin, when confronted about his shoddy work, insisted that it was fine and did not hear out my complaints. I do not believe that Martin even tried to provide me with a usable resume. Martin simply did not put enough time or effort into his work to competently do his job. In preparing my resume, Martin failed to: - seek my input about what skills, attributes and experiences I would like to emphasize; - interview me about my work experience; - write coherently and factually; and - proofread his work. To illustrate the quality of Martin's work, a few of the more obvious errors Martin made include: - listing my Juris Doctor as being issued by the Province of Alberta (my degree was issued by the University of Alberta); - listing an unfinished master's degree as being completed (my old resume clearly indicated that I was a candidate); - transposing the digits of my phone number; and - listing legal counsel, trademarks, trial preparation, litigation, mediation, depositions and briefs as "areas of expertise". It should be noted that I do not have experience in any of these areas. Also, legal counsel is a role and not an area of expertise. I also found many of Martin's revisions to be confusing. For instance, on a worksheet I provided to Martin, I indicated that I had prepared a set of legal agreements enabling a client to release its social platform in Canada. Martin revised this to "allowing client to release to a social platform in Canada". Releasing a social platform is not the same as releasing to a social platform. In another instance, I indicated that I had prepared claim amendments and arguments to overcome a patent examiner's obviousness objections. Obviousness refers to a specific requirement in patent law. Martin revised the provided information to "framed claim amendments and arguments to overcome examiner's obvious objections". It is not clear as to why Martin thinks that, or that is even appropriate, to point out how "obvious" the examiner's objections were. Martin's resume was filled with similar errors throughout. Martin's work speaks for itself. It is of exceptionally poor quality and is far below the standard one would expect from a "professional". If you are considering hiring a career coach or resume writer, I strongly suggest looking elsewhere.

He referred me to location that could potentially assist in providing that needed development. He has great contacts and I was able to learn a lot from Brian. He is also attentive and listened as well as made himself available when it was best for me. Being laid off from a job at age 55 years old is difficult, because there are not a lot of employers looking to hire someone as old as I am.. however, he made me see that with my age also come more experience and that organization would be lucky to have the experience person.
