Hi everyone, 

I am planning to subscribe to the 6-week premium, but first off, I need to have my resume and cover letter edited to get interview invites. Do we have those services on here? 

I have the resume (2-page and concise) and cover letter ready. I just need them to be tailored to the consulting industry and catch resume reviewers' attention. 

Thank you!

Hi there,

Q: I need to have my resume and cover letter edited to get interview invites. Do we have those services on here? 

Many coaches offer a CV review as part of their coaching. You can check if there is an option for that on their profiles here

Alternatively, you can post an anonymized version in the Q&A for feedback.

The process I personally recommend during sessions is the following:

  1. You send your CV/Cover before the class
  2. We review them together during the class. I recommend the changes to do step by step
  3. You work on the recommended improvements after the class and adapt the document accordingly
  4. You send back the CV/Cover. I review it and provide suggestions on anything that needs improvements (no additional bookings needed)
  5. You review and make changes accordingly
  6. If needed, you can send them back as many times as needed (no follow-up limits)

All the steps are included in the initial booking, including the unlimited follow-ups.

Hi there,

Yes, absolutely! Most coaches offer this. I have a CV + Cover Letter offering (check my profile) in which I send through my course + materials, do an offline review, and do a live review as well. 

Feel free to reach out!

Hi there,

Yes, of course, a lot of coaches offer these services (with differing results, though).

If you want to have your application files reviewed, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Being the most experienced coach in terms of consulting, recruiting, and coaching combined, I am sure I can add significant value to your application files.

Best,

You can do it with us, the coaches on PrepLounge. 

And yes, it's something I always recommend people to do. 

From the CVs that I see, 2-4% are actually ready to be sent out. The majority are 70-80% there, and a good chunk are in the wrong format / poorly written. 

Since passing screening is the first gate in the recruitment process, having an excellent CV is a must. So, getting professional support at this point is the highest ROI move you can make in the recruitment process.

Best,
Cristian

Yes, you have. Many coaches offer that service (or at least “coach you” in order to improve your CV… I don't think any coach will write your CV/CL for you… or at least the hourly cost would advise against that in most cases).
