ABOUT STRATEGIC RESUMES
Headquartered in New Orleans, Louisiana, Strategic Résumés provides a nationwide custom-written résumé, career services, job search skills training, and business document writing service, with a 10,000+ résumé database representing clients in virtually all career fields, and has operated continuously since 1994.
The Strategic Résumés® concept consists of providing a consultative résumé writing service through the use of in-depth consultation focusing on bringing out the skills and background necessary to maximize the jobseeker's marketability. Emphasis is placed on highlighting of the jobseeker's specific skills and accomplishments, drawing out information from the jobseeker that is usually passed over in the résumé creation process, and adding the finest in creative wording and formatting to ensure a positive result from personnel departments and decision-makers.
Recent (2002) examples of clients have included an NFL football player, a CEO of a $2 billion company, the former captain of USA's World Cup men's soccer team, a renowned chef who personally served Presidents Bush & Clinton, as well as physicians, police officers, scientists, professors, intelligence agents, sales managers, politicians, engineers, executives, white and blue collar employees, nurses, attorneys, students, accountants, and ministers.
Many résumé firms in the past traditionally provided only typesetting and formatting services, with a minimal amount of creativity, as opposed to the growing field of consultative résumé writing.
