“Nicole gave me the confidence and tools I needed to get my dream job.

I always thought I was pretty good at cover letter writing and formatting my resume, but she recommended things I'd never even thought of!”

WHAT IS THE RESUME REFRESH?

Ready to make a bold career move? With this service, I'll dive deep into your resume, consider your career goals (you'll have the chance to tell me what those are!), and provide you with powerful actionable feedback to help you make those moves. 

As a recruiting professional and career coach with over a decade of experience, I've seen it all – from reviewing thousands of resumes to collaborating with hundreds of hiring managers on hiring for their team. With my industry knowledge, I will provide actionable feedback on your resume to help you stand out in the job market. As a woman, I know what invisible roadblocks you might be encountering in your job search. 

You deserve equitable opportunity, and I want to help you achieve that. Let's work together to achieve your career goals! 👏👏


HOW DOES THE RESUME REFRESH WORK?

The Resume Refresh is a process where I will review your resume in-depth, offering detailed, thoughtful feedback about how you can take your resume to the next level. To inform and customize the feedback that I offer you in the Resume Refresh, in an initial intake form, I will learn about your career history, where you’re looking to go next in your career, and any roadblocks that you’ve been hitting. 

The recommendations offered during the Resume Refresh will focus on:

  • Grammar, punctuation, and language.

  • Expanding upon your work experience.

  • Conciseness.

  • Visual design.

  • Connecting your transferable skills to your next step.


Each Resume Refresh service is highly tailored to you as an individual, your work experience, your career goals, and what would make sense for your specific document, so that you can hit the job market with your best foot forward.


WHAT DOES THE RESUME REFRESH LOOK LIKE?

You will receive two files with this service:

  1. You will receive a PDF that will offer highly specific, notated resume feedback, referencing your resume directly.

  2. You will receive a video file where I explain my feedback in more detail in a filmed, speaking-to-camera format. 

I know that it can be helpful to be able to "talk through" your resume feedback, so the PDF coupled with a video will give you balanced ways to take in all of your feedback and next steps. Here at Career Coach Nicole HQ, we make sure that all feedback is shared clearly, kindly, and in-depth! 🔥🔥

Questions? I have answers!

 

Q: I feel pretty good about my resume - do you think that I would benefit from a Resume Refresh?

A: I bet your resume slays, but I’ve never not had feedback for a resume, so I’ll definitely have some great insight to offer you! It never hurts to get a second opinion from someone who knows resumes in and out, and I’d love to help you no matter where you’re at on your resume journey!

Q: Do you write my resume for me with this service?

A: Please note this service is a detailed Resume Refresh in which you’ll receive detailed, thorough, and thoughtful suggestions on how to improve your resume from a career coach. This is NOT a resume writing service, and I will not rewrite your resume for you. I’m big on the mindset that I would rather have my clients understand the reasoning for making resume changes so that you can apply these tips for the rest of your career! I want to teach you to catch fish, not catch your fish for you!

Q: Do you refresh cover letters as well?

A: I do refresh cover letters! Because they are used less frequently than resumes and not-so-often in for profit industries, I do not currently review cover letters as a formal offer on my website. However, I’ve reviewed hundreds of them in past roles, and there are some times that it pays to have a strong cover letter! Please contact me if this is a service you’re interested in.

Q: Should my resume be a PDF or a Word Doc?

A: I always, always recommend submitting your resume to job applications as a PDF when applying for jobs.. However, for purposes of this Resume Refresh service, I prefer, but don’t require, a PDF submission.

Q: Should I stop applying for jobs while my resume is in the Resume Refresh process?

A: This is totally up to you, and it’s dependent on your energy level and how quickly you’re wanting to make a change. If you’re rearing to get your next job as soon as possible and you have a lot of energy to keep applying, you should keep that momentum up! If you’re kind of burnt out of applying for jobs and not looking to make an urgent change, it might be a good idea to take a break from applying to jobs so that you’ll feel energized again with a newly refreshed resume. Totally up to you, though!

Q: How do I book a Resume Refresh?

A: Follow this link! You’ll be guided through a checkout process on Paperbell and Stripe, both secure platforms. By completing all steps here, you’ll be guided in a service agreement, payment, resume submission, intake form, and more. Once you complete that process, I’ll begin reviewing your resume and submit it back to you within one week.
