Can we live chat or zoom?

Yes, we can schedule a comprehensive video meeting(s) or phone call(s) for the Option 2) and up packages. In order to best match your talents, experience, and expertise to a particular post, Brisbane Executive job applications often have complex and specialised selection criteria to consider, and several rounds of Questions and Answers will be necessary. It would be helpful for me to see your previous or current Brisbane Resume or CV, as well as the job description, before we meet online or over the phone.

It's not practical with my competitive fee structure to meet face-to-face and, really, it's not needed. Also, I split my time between Brisbane and other capital cities since I run outplacement workshops.

Which Resume package should I select?

I can create a package to suit your specific requirements or you can select from the menu. We can have a preliminary phone conversation if that's what you prefer. A Resume or CV, a Cover Letter or letters, a Linkedin profile, and the necessity to respond to questions by addressing Selection Criteria make up the four main components of a Brisbane executive job application.

Application consistency

The Cover Letter(s) or e-note(s) and your Linkedin profile should stem from your CV or Resume. Each must consistently support your 'pitch' for the job.

Resume / CV and Cover Letter

Senior job candidates in Brisbane frequently fail to recognise the crucial distinction between the CV and Cover Letter (sometimes called a Covering Letter). The purpose of the Cover Letter is to highlight and briefly summarise the aspects of your knowledge, skills, and experience that are most "relevant" (to the position). It's your opportunity to present your case or "elevator pitch".

Brisbane Selection Criteria

Brisbane businesses frequently request that you "address" (respond to inquiries about) the "selection criteria" (what an employer requires of an applicant) in the Cover Letter or, more frequently, as a separate document. Although it may seem challenging, doing so enables businesses to choose the finest candidates and avert costly errors.

Linkedin

LinkedIn serves as a both a marketing tool to draw headhunters and unadvertised opportunities as well as a gauge of your networking status. Employers or their agents will almost probably review your LinkedIn profile before making an employment offer, so it needs to be current and consistent with your CV or Resume.

Confused? Just contact me or call for advice before you buy a package: 0419-049-237, Txt me: 0419-049-237 , Facebook me, or Whatsapp me.

Why you should avoid Resume 'Mills'

Do you have a clear understanding of who will be handling your account? It takes more than just basic "transcription and presentation" knowledge to create Resumes, CVs, and supporting documents that will get you on the shortlist for an interview. .

Skills & Knowledge to look for in a Brisbane CV writer

Creating Resumes and CVs requires writing skill, marketing ability and, importantly, local knowledge & experience of employment markets and Australian cultural nuances.

If it looks to good to be true

Resume Mills offshore the work to the equivalent of call centres and while on the face of it this may seem like a bargain, it's anything but. 10% of what you pay goes to the frequently exploited 'expert' writer.

Beware of this when you're making decisions about your Brisbane career. Neither an inexpert writer nor a poor 'AI' delivered template can provide a professional outcome.

Can you accommodate rush jobs?

My capacity to do rush jobs depends on the circumstances. Addressing complex Brisbane selection criteria and crafting appropriate responses in Executive Resumes and CVs is an iterative process that takes time. The best way to avoid a last minute panic is to create a Master CV or Resume ahead of your need to make an application. However, if an opportunity presents itself at short notice I can sometimes work out of hours to get CVs and applications done. This is reflected in my fees and the loading is 25 to 50%. Please TXT if you have urgent needs, since I monitor such messages out of hours.

How do you approach Selection Criteria?

Addressing the selection criteria may appear like a demanding endeavour, even for senior job applicants. Too many executives try to capitalise on their reputations by skimping on this, and ignoring the vital requirement for an employer to match a candidate's skills, knowledge, talents, and track record with the organisation's strategic goals and both the current and desired organisational cultures.

Selection Criteria, track record and cultural fit

Each employer determines the nature and scope of the questions that will be posed, and they are increasingly qualitative in nature. For this reason, if I am to help write your responses, I need a good insight into who you are. Ergo, this is an iterative process.

If I have already written your Brisbane Resume or CV, I will have learned a great deal. This is the ideal situation. If your CV is already written, I'll have to chat with you to comprehend the nuances.

In cases where addressing the Brisbane selection criteria is complex, you will understand that I will need to see the employer's requirements and your existing Resume or CV before I can determine the extent of the work required.

Do I need a CV or a Resume?

Although there are many variables involved, the employer typically makes this clear in the application notes. In Australia, a Resume is a succinct one to three page description of your education, training, and work history. A CV is a more thorough journal that details all of your education, experience, and publications. The scope of a CV depends on how technical or academic the position is, and what the Brisbane employer specifies in their application requirements.

Client Testimonials


As an experienced CEO, MD and Board Member with a lifetime of experience in the industry, I thought I could leave my old job and walk straight into a new one without a problem. After several months of trying and failing to land an interview I decided to reach out to you. The results have blown me away. I just wanted to let you know while I am waiting on the outcome of my interview, I could not have done it without your help.

- A.J. (Mining, Oil & Gas)


My son needed help with a Graduate Application to a mining supply company and not knowing the first thing about how to present an application of this nature, let alone write one, I came to you and have to say it was absolutely the best money I have ever spent. Even when I tried to submit the application and failed miserably, you were still there to offer advice and guidance. I know where to come when I need mine updated.

- J.V. (Mother)


I must have applied for over a hundred jobs and didn't get to the interview once. I know living in outback Australia the chances of landing a job in the mines is usually pretty good, especially given my skills. But the Resume I had - just wasn't up to it which is really humbling. So I paid for your professional Resume package, and the first time I sent it to the company they were immediately on the phone. I should have swallowed my pride and asked for help a lot sooner. Love your work mate.

- R.S. (Mechanical Fitter)


I had had my Resume so-called "professionally done" by another company, and they obviously didn't have a clue as to what was required. I was so appalled by what they sent, especially given the cost. Not only was it poorly written but the formatting was terrible; you could tell it wasn't created in Australia. So when I entrusted you to create a new Resume for me, I did so because you answered every question and put my mind at ease, and the finished result is just incredible, it seems like you have known me forever and portrayed my skills perfectly.
