Is anyone here involved in Resume Writing?

Please provide any info about Resume Writing. I'm from Egypt Can I join the Professional Association of Resume Writers or the National Resume Writers Association?

Please say anything.

Thank you.

Yea I am. I have no idea about Egypt, I have been working with professionals in USA and UK.
Do you have experience in recruitment or have you worked in the HR department of any reputable organization?

Sufferin' succatash

Did you mean "Succotash" (SUHCK-uh-tahsh) which is a Naragansett Indian word meaning "broken into bits."
Succotash is a simple dish, of indigenous corn and lima beans, was introduced to white settlers by the Algonkian and Powhatan tribes of the Southern United States.

Dearbats, please tell me that you are kidding with that "history lesson." You DO know that what I typed is the signature expression of Sylvester that has absolutely NOTHING to do with the dish, right? It's popularly spelled both ways in the cartoon character's catch phrase.

Yes, I do :)

Simply did it to add a dash of "historical" humor...

Resume Writing Service

Where can I find a good Resume writing service?

That was actually a vocabulary lesson, but yeah. ;) I've used that saying quite a bit and found the explanation interesting. LOL.


There are several freelance writers in this group who help with resumes/CVs, myself included. I saw some profiles a while back (in this forum) and outsourced some extra work with one of them... Academic Eve, I believe. I don't have that link in front of me, but you can find it in the search box, I'm sure.

I am not sure where the OP got the idea that there is a resume writing association in existence.

Resume writing is just a part of the services offered by an independent writer who is trying to expand beyond academic writing.

This is a form of writing that is different in many ways from academic writing and can easily be completed by anyone who has a computer.

People don't usually require resume writing since Windows Word has several templates available for anyone to use for that purpose.

However, there is a need to proofread a resume and edit it, depending upon the job requirements of the Human Resources Department.

Resume writing does not require writing in as much as it requires formatting and presentation polishing.

So writers are not directly involved in the creation of a resume or resume writing, but are directly involved in resume formatting.

Maybe from the website of the Resume Writers Association? thenrwa.com

I do them all the time. In my experience, it's not "formatting" that clients need from me for their resumes, but writing. You can find formatting guides online for resumes just as easily as you can find formatting guides for APA essays, but neither will help very much if it is formatted properly but poorly written. In my experience, the resume drafts I see from clients are properly formatted, but not sufficiently well-written to generate a job offer, especially if there are a lot of applications for the job in question.

I tried resume writing for a while too. I found that it wasn't for me because there's so much structure that revolves around it. It's also very technical that I would consider resume writing as an entirely different field from academic writing. I find that it doesn't give a lot of leg room for creativity (whereas in academic writing, you can still somehow play around with words).

Resume writing is something that most academic writers find themselves doing when there is a slow season and they just want to keep the money rolling in. It is not difficult to write but, it requires a higher rate of payment. That is because it is more difficult to format the paper and it often requires revisions because the client would like to highlight different aspects of his work skills or professional talents. This could sometimes require changes to the resume format over several drafts. To make it worth the writer's time and patience, they need to be paid more. Most writing companies actually pretend to have a specialized writers pool for resume writing. There is truth to that specialized department. The writers that do the academic writing also do the resume writing.

How much does a resume editing service typically cost?

Resume editing service is cheaper than resume writing service. A resume edit usually costs between $50 and $400. If it's just a simple edit, it's cheaper, but if it's for a big job or dream position, it can cost more. But if you get this resume edit service from Resume Brisbane ,then it will cost less than the above .

I do not see the need for a professional writer to come up with a creative way of writing a resume for an applicant. There are way many more ways to accomplish that without having to spend for a creative way of presenting the information. Templates comes in free and paid forms for resumes, Even AI can generate a creative looking resume for someone who provides it with enough information to create one. It would be a waste of money to hire someone to create a resume for you since you are the only one who can appropriately and accurately represent your credentials in written form. It is not something that requires a writer to work on it. The formats that Canva comes up with for resumes are very creative and engaging.

Uh, you have not provided enough information for the people visiting this forum to reach the website you are advertising. If you do not give the URL, there is no way the users can find your website with such a generic sounding name. CV? That is so common that it cannot be used as a domain name. You may have just messed up your advertisement which, by the way, is not in the correct section of this forum. Writing Careers is meant for writers who are interested in getting started in the business. It is not for company representatives to sell their websites. Something which you failed to do with your post.

Good writers strongly dislike having to write resumes, because the work involves much more formatting than actual writing. We find that kind of work annoying and tedious, because there's no real flow to it; we greatly prefer substantive writing that involves writing several paragraphs (or pages) at a time, without interrupting our flow every sentence or two, to go back and forth, constantly, between what we're writing and the information that we need to read and interpret to rephrase from the source document. I don't refuse to write resumes, especially for regular clients, and still find myself doing them fairly often, but I've learned to charge more for them than for substantive writing, because resume word counts just don't correspond fairly to the amount of my time that they take to do well. Naturally, good writers produce much better resumes than bad writers; we just dislike having to do them.
