Jodie: One last quick note to thank both yourself and Kim
for doing an excellent job on my resume and cover letters.
As a side note, I sent out my resume this past Friday and
I've already gotten 3 calls and 1 interview lined up. Even
though its "my past," it was your groups' expertise
in putting it together on paper for me and I am grateful.
I will look for my package and thank you again!
Follow-Up:
I did receive the package and everything is terrific. In
less than 3 weeks (I know this sounds trite but its true!)
1)I sent out my resume (via email) 2)Received 2 phone calls
from executive recruiters 3)4 phone calls from corporations
4) and already have one job offer on the table! This is almost
too heady for me because I am not used to and was almost
(I say almost) not prepared for the initial quick responses
I received. Will this continue this way? Maybe, maybe not
but it is the best I have received in my career. If this
doesn't tell you how happy and pleased I am with your services,
I don't know what will! Thank you is about all I can say
right now for lack of a better phrase! You and Kim are true
hardworking, integrity driven professionals. In this day
in age when everyone is looking to make a quick buck and
not put a good-days' work, your services stand alone.
K.G., Sales Director, Minnesota
Four months ago, the president of <snip>, a wholly
owned subsidiary
of <snip>, was replaced. The new president studied
the subsidiary for a
few months to determine what changes would be made. As expected,
the new
president closed several facilities in a number of states
and terminated
employees here in the <snip> facility...My position
was among
those eliminated this month.
Luckily you and I started preparing my career campaign documents
early
enough for me to see some real results at this time. So far
I have been
contacted by recruiters across the country, by a few local
companies and
recruiters during the past few days, and completed an initial
interview
just this morning. The resume that you prepared has received
tremendous
praise from recruiters, companies, references and friends.
Thanksgiving is a time to be thankful for what we have.
In addition to
my regular celebration, this year I am thankful that you
expertly
crafted a perfect set of career marketing tools for me, and
that you
completed them in time for them to make a real difference.
- D.S., Engineering Manager, Illinois
Hello Karen and Jodie,
I just wanted to drop you a line and thank you for all your work. In
less than two weeks and exposure to as few as 7 companies, I just accepted
a job at a software company a few minutes ago. And I turned down an offer
from another company. My old resume was posted for three months and forwarded
to over 80 companies without any results.
To sum it all: You girls did a great job, I had a great experience working
with you and I truly feel that this was money very well spent. If there
is anything I regret…is not contacting you a long time ago.
P.G., IT Manager, Massachusetts
Hi Jodie,
I received the package yesterday, and everything looks great! I have
already recommended your services to people who have seen the work you
have done on my resume. Great job! Thank you again.
M.B., Operations Manager, Pennsylvania
Karen and Kim -
I just wanted to drop you a quick note to wish you a happy holiday season
and to update you on how my job search has been going since you completely
revamped my resume.
I've consistently been getting serious feedback from recruiters and
I have interviewed with two companies so far - the most recent one looks
very promising as they have a number of positions for which they want
to consider me. Interestingly, the opportunities are in fields as diverse
as security, IT, and financial services. This speaks volumes as to how
effective you were in preparing a resume for someone with diverse skill
sets - someone who was looking to market the transferable skills in order
to change careers. Unanimously, anyone who has read my resume has been
blown away - they simply respond with"WOW!" The testimonial
page, in particular, leaves them shaking their heads and thinking they
have just stumbled upon the greatest hiring opportunity in years.
I would like to wish you and your team all the best for a wonderful
holiday season and a happy, healthy, and peaceful new year. Best Regards,
J.F., Senior Project Manager, New Jersey
Update from client:
Karen and Kim -
As promised in my email from a couple of weeks ago, I'd like to bring
you up to date on the progress of my job search. In short, "The
Eagle Has Landed!"
Even in a relatively bad economy, I ended up in a new industry (financial
services) with a position that provided better pay, better benefits,
and increased growth/mobility opportunities. Slam dunk! Ultimately, I
attribute a great deal of that success to a resume that was designed
and written with all of my transferable skills in mind and it proved
to be more than effective. Anyone who has read my resume has unequivocally
been impressed. For those who did review the resume, the look on their
faces is a dead give away...they look as if they've just struck gold
and they are not afraid to say so.
For all of this, I can't thank you enough. You have won a client for
life and I will, as promised, direct toward you anyone I know who can
use such a service.
You and your staff are all aces! Thank you...Thank you...Thank you!
Please stay in touch and I will do the same. If you should ever find
yourselves in the NY/NJ area, please let me know as I would love the
opportunity to meet you. With sincere hopes of talking to you soon...
J.F., Senior Project Manager, New Jersey
Jodie,
Thanks for checking back with me.....Yes I received your package and
everything looks great!
I applied for a position 2 weeks ago using the new resume and got called
in "immediately" for an interview. It went well and I have
been asked to come back for a second interview tomorrow. The position
is for "Network Administrator" for a Banking Company here in
Colorado.
I appreciate your help and support. I will stay in contact with you
and advise you on my progress.
Thanks to everyone there for all your help, I am very pleased with your
services. It was a pleasure working with all of you. Please tell Kim
Isaacs that I say 'hello'. Sincerely,
M.D., Network Engineer, Colorado
Thanks Jodie. I am really impressed of how fast and professional is
the service of ResumePower. Thanks again.
S.Y., LAN Administrator, Toronto
This looks great; clean, refreshed and up-to-date. Once again, I am
indebted to your resourcefulness, promptness, professionalism and helpfulness.
Everything looks fantastic! Once again, thank you.
M.D., Sales Representative, California
Jodie,
I just like to acknowledge hard work and dedication when I see it. Both
you and Karen have been a prime example of this.
By the way once I land a job (smile) both you and Karen can expect a really,
really nice gift from me.... trust you have my word... and it will be worth
every penny spent.
J.W., Financial Analyst, New York
Dear Karen, Jodie and Staff, November 22, 2002
I have been looking to change jobs for over 18 months. I have applied
to countless ads and gotten very poor results. I received the final draft
of my cover letter and resume on November 12th and immediately sent it
to two companies. One of the companies called me the very next day and
I am very happy to say that after a four interview process and only ten
days I accepted a job offer from them today. This is truly amazing. I
would like to extend my sincerest thanks to each member of your staff
for a job well done. I will most definitely recommend you to friends
and colleagues.
Best regards,
J.D., Store Manager, North Carolina
Jodie,
Please let Karen know I think she did an exceptional job on my
resume. As tough as the job market is right now, I know I made
the right choice selecting ResumePower to craft my resume.
J.C., Supervisor, Oklahoma
Karen:
Wow! Is this me!? I guess. I always stayed in the background and
let my clients take the kudos. If their senior management was happy,
I was happy.
The resume is great (I'd say awesome, but then I would be dating
myself).
Again, thank you very much. I could not have come close to putting
this into words with the skill you used. Best of all, I'm not in
that "They All Lie" category.
B.H., Event Manager, Massachusetts
Hi Karen -
Finally... some time to write down this note and give you my feedback...so
here it goes...
Awesome!!!! Totally awesome!!! You have captured exactly what
I wanted and how I wanted it (even though I did not know it). It
highlights my Marketing experience and minimizes my engineering
experience is such a clever way.
It was a huge pride and morale buster to see my accomplishments
described in such ways...it's all true, I just never stopped to
savor the moments...always onto the next big thing...Thanks a lot!
C.M., Product Marketing Manager, Texas
Good morning...
Was away yesterday, but jumped back on the laptop to be greeted by this wonderful
email :-) This reads *so* much better than the hacked-up version I'd trudged
around before...thank you...thank you...thank you...Take care,
J.W., Senior Director, Product Development,
California
Hi, Jodie...
Thank you. I did receive my packet and everything looked great.
I did have my interview with the board. I felt good about it. I
did get on the slate for May 21st. The voting will take place at
that time. I will be ready for anything....in my favor or not.
Thank you for your support and for putting together my wonderful
resume, which impressed the board interviewees a lot.
I will let you know how it goes....Thank you again for your ability
to put things in writing in a way that paints a very nice picture.
Fondly,
M.K., Business Owner, California

and capabilities!
Thank you! I'll be in touch soon.
K.V., Senior Product Marketing Manager, California
Hi Jodie,
Thank you very much for everything you did and please thank Karen
again for me too. You were great to do business with and I am very
happy with the whole experience I had with your company. I will
definitely recommend you to any of my friends that might be needing
a resume in the future and please convey this message to your boss
as they should be proud to have 2 such great people representing
the company. Thanks again and I'll keep you posted as to my job
search. Take care,

you very much for your excellent work!
A.K., Senior Software Engineer, California
Karen, I had to let you know how pleased I am with my resume.
I got home from work tonight and I was just giggling while reading
it. It was a definite boost to my ego that came at an ideal time.
Thank you so much, you have been amazing.
N.S., Network Technician, Pennsylvania
Just had to add this comment, having always been upfront in both
praise and criticism......I am very impressed with your talent
in packaging my background and completely blown-away with this
resulting first draft. Much appreciated and well worth the investment. "The
Eternal Skeptic"
J.S., Marketing and Sales Executive, California
Hi Kim, I would like to extend my gratitude for all the time and
effort you and Karen spent on my resume. I told Karen that the
resume looks incredible and different from my original draft. More
power to you and your colleagues. Again, thank you. All the best,
R.R., Management Consultant, Pennsylvania
Kim you have been so great to work with as has everyone I've dealt
with i.e. Karen, Jodie and Liz. I will definitely recommend you
to all that ask where did you get that award winning resume. :>)
<After receiving package:> I sure miss you guys (girls)
:>) I did receive the package and i'm very pleased with it.
I just finished posting the new resume on all the job sites, i.e.,
Monster, Career Builder etc. I will keep you posted. I have a positive
outlook on my job search thanks to my new award winning resume.

Working with Karen was such a pleasure. She made it seem
so easy and stressfree.
P.S., Operations Manager, New York
Thanks so much for your help. The resume looks beautiful...in
just two days I've had quite a bit of positive response and
am enthusiastic about my prospects in the marketplace. I'll
be certain to refer anyone I know who needs help with a resume
to your service. Best Regards,
M.S., Director of Marketing, Massachusetts
You did a great job! So I know I will get a great job! Thanks.
Follow-up:
Your work on my resume has paid off! I will be accepting
an offer from a very new e-commerce start up company. I got
everything I wanted. I am reminded of your response when
I said that e companies would not be interested in my resume
and you said that I might be surprised. Well I am surprised
and happy. Thanks for making my life easier and much better.
I would like to keep in touch and continue to update my resume
as my situation changes. If you need another testimonial
just ask. You are the best. Thanks and may the turn of the
century be good to you.
PS: I will be recommending you to my brother <snip> and
everyone else.
J.H., Creative Director, New York
Greetings Team at Advanced Career Systems,
I have received my resume’ package and I can’t
tell you how ecstatic I am. My new resume’ is absolutely
awesome. And dealing with your company has been a true pleasure.
From the first phone call to the delivery of the final product,
every aspect of dealing with you folks has been nothing less
than extraordinary. I am certain that my new resume’ will

Follow-up Letter:
I also want you to know that my new resume' has gotten me
so many interviews that I don't think I would have gotten
with my old resume'. I am also getting a lot of hits on Monster.com
and have received several calls from people finding my resume'
there. I've turned down two offers so far because they just
weren't quite the right position. I want to take my time
and make sure I make the right next step, but the resume'
is definitely doing its job. A big thank-you one more time.
N.S., Network Technician, Pennsylvania
Just got the package yesterday, and I'm absolutely thrilled
-- it looks awesome! Thank you so much,.
L.R., Architectural Intern, North Carolina
First impression when I read the resume. - WOW couldn't
do a better job if I tried for a million years. I actually
want to call myself for an interview now. ;~)
I reviewed the new resume you girls have written for me, and I had four people
review it for me as well. Two people of which are directors at large companies,
one was a resume critique at the career place and one was a CEO of a hi-tech
software company. We all felt that the text in the resume was put together
in the best way passable, and were very positively impressed. All four people
really liked the way you marketed me in that resume. Thanks for all your
help.
P.G., IT Manager, Massachusetts
Hi Karen,
The cover letter is great! It really complements my resumes
and highlights my skills/accomplishments for potential employers.
Thank you so much for all of your work. I appreciate your
thoroughness and attention to detail. If this doesn't get
me an interview, then they must not be hiring! Sincerely,
B.L., Kindergarten Teacher, Hong Kong
Thanks for the first draft of my resume. It looks great.
I would hire me sight unseen.
S.F., Healthcare Director, Michigan
I am so happy with the work you've done. The way you've
turned this around is going a long way to helping me feel
positive about this experience. As I haven't hunted for a
job since I was a clerk typist in NYC 30 years ago, this
is really foreign soil for me. The only ideas of how to go
about this that I have have been gleamed from the Internet
and chatting with friends. I do well on interviews, so I
know that all I have to do is snag their attention. Your
work is helping me do that and I appreciate it.
B.M., HR Strategic Business Partner, Virginia
Hello Karen,
The draft resume that you created is EXCELLENT, far beyond
what I expected.
D.S., Engineering Program Manager, Illinois
Hey Karen,
Just got the resume and wow!! it looks great! i am going
to look it over and fax back any changes (I doubt there will
be any)...Also one request I also needed a cover letter is
that still possible? Thanks again,
T.J., Pharmacist, New York
WOW!!!!!! I just came home from class and I was pleasantly
surprised! You are fantastic!!!!!!! I could never have done
what you accomplished for me! You are great!!!! I most certainly
am happy with all of your hard work. I wasn't even expecting
to see this yet. I appreciate your diligence in the matter.
If you need a testimonial, you got it!
CS, Manager, Illinois
I'm faxing my approval to print. Thanks ... you guys are
real pros and I'm so glad I ran across your services on Monster!
S.L., HR Manager, Texas
Thank you very much for the excellent services composing
a rather difficult resume, at least from my perspective.
Please accept this email as confirmation that you have completed
your services as contracted, in a most exemplary fashion.
S.B., Company President, Connecticut
Morning Kim, Thank you for working so hard. I received the
draft late last night. I appreciate it and am very happy
with what you've done. Regards,
M.H., Civil Engineer, South Africa
I think I'm falling in love with you. As much as I write,
I could have never written that letter. Thanks so much....
I have had the most amazing thing happen. I actually got
a "letter of inquiry" from <snip>. Oh Lord
- the job of my dreams. (Did you have anything to do with
this? If you didn't I would still "fib" and say
yes, then I will follow you to the Moon!)
L.C., Director, Nevada
Hi Jodie!
My thanks to you and Karen for the great work and but more
so the even better result!! Karen truly is incredible, as
I'm blown away at the resume that she has created for me.
I'm confident in my abilities and what I can do for a business
and this resume reflects that. I'm excited and look forward
to taking it "out for a spin" and distributing
it to prospective companies I have targeted in my search.
Please pass on my thanks to Karen and Kim!!!! I will let
you know how it goes!
P.L., Supply Chain Director, Wisconsin
You helped me with a great resume in a previous job search
that landed me my current position. Looks like I need your
help again!!
D.T., IT Project Manager, Pennsylvania
First I want to thank you for all your help and the incredible
resume you and your team put together for me.
Believe this or not, I landed the first position where I
used my new resume. That is exactly what I needed after 4
months of searching, the right tool. A professional presentation
of my skills on paper. In person I do well in interviews
but the first point of contact is the resume and with your
help I did it. Thanks.
F.E., Administrative Assistant, Washington,
D.C.
<client note to a friend>
The link is www.resumepower.com. They did an excellent job
for me. I worked with Jodie and she's wonderful. Kim reviewed
and approved it. Plan on spending a few hundred dollars and
several hours of your time to have your resume done right.
J.B., IT Project Manager, California
Thanks Jodie, everything looks great!! I will keep you updated
on the job search. Thanks again to you and your staff for
all of the help. You have a great group of people and a fantastic
service. I will definitely reccommend you to my friends!

A million thanks Karen for your sending me suggested books
and for your great services at resumepower.
I had composed a nice and longer email saying you are an
angel for sending me all data I have asked for.....and a
lot more! Maybe it was better that I lost it because now
this one is short and simple.
R.R., Senior Engineer, California
Hi Karen,
Thanks so much! It looks great! The turnaround time was
perfect also. I'll be sure to recommend your services!
