. . . far better than what I was expecting. . . . I love the new format and how you have structured both documents. When I first read through them, I was having a hard time thinking this was me :). I think that you did a fantastic job summarizing what I have accomplished throughout my career. I also really liked the DISC assessment results.

I feel the resume and behavioral analysis you helped me with were key to making this change a reality. Very much appreciated. – M. P.

If you’re looking for the best, don’t look any further. I submitted my resume to a target employer and was told, “Once we saw your resume, we knew you were the person we wanted to hire.” Ellie is efficient, professional and top in her league. I found her able to place me above and beyond others competing for the same job. If you want to be successful, team up with Ellie! – M. U.

Thank you so much for taking the time to get to know me and create something I could never have done in my entire life. I’m serious, the resume that you created makes my old resume looks like it was written in crayon, which goes to show how amazing you are at what you do. I also wanted to tell you that its been ONLY 3 days of putting my new resume out and I have already landed a job! – N. K.

C.

I am sure that my resume opened the door . . . . I gained a great deal of confidence after seeing all of my accomplishments . . . . I know I wouldn’t have been able to put my resume together with all of the “bells & whistles.” – D. M.

Looks great! You did an amazing job. Thanks again for the amount of effort and research you put into this. It really shows. – S. R.

This looks wonderful. Thank you . . . . this is far superior to what I could have accomplished on my own. – M. V.

Thanks for the follow up! I am still in process—they are creating a position for me and it is just taking some time. I have had over 30 interviews (no exaggeration), and I’m in the final stages with 4-5 other companies. Thanks again! – C. D.

Thank you for your fantastic work on my resume. The document is catching, informative, and extremely marketable. It was truly worth every penny! – R. F.

I landed at XYZ, woohoo! Thank you for probing, listening and gathering a series of random thoughts and skills and arranging them in a cohesive, professional and accurate manner that portrayed exactly what I bring to the table. – L. G., Project Management Professional

As an accomplished professional in an ever-changing job market, it is important to find someone who truly understands your vision, can identify career-defining achievements, redefine your personal success and ultimately help you to achieve the dream job. Ellie did just that for me . . . – Amber S.

Just wanted to let you know that I received a job offer last week. Much credit goes to you for writing a resume that communicated a three-dimensional person. The hiring manager stated that my cover letter and resume gave her a strong impression of me; they were looking for a person with passion, enthusiasm and business savvy. This opportunity is well over 100k per year! Thanks again and be assured that I will recommend your services. – P. H.

I have been using Noteworthy to write and revise my resume for the last 10 years and will continue to do so because I have never had a problem getting interviews. I attribute that to the outstanding resumes created for me. I will continue to use their service in the future and recommend it to others. – Sr. Pharmaceutical Sales Representative

I just wanted to let you know that I accepted a job today! To refresh your memory, my position was eliminated recently. I needed your help since I had never before needed a resume. After meeting with you, I left your office very confident. Of the roughly 10 jobs I responded to via electronic submission, 7 people responded to me in various ways. Jobs were either filled, they referred me to websites that could help me post my resume or I got the interviews. But the constant in all the replies was that my resume was very impressive. I wanted to thank you very much for the confidence you gave me and for a very professional tool that caught a lot of employers’ eyes, my resume! Again, many thanks. – C. W.

Recently I decided it was time to update my resume, as it had been years. I found Ellie and Noteworthy Resume online and was very impressed with their web site. I scheduled an appointment and was very pleased with Ellie’s personal touch and overall style. She cares and it shows. It’s no wonder she has been in business over 20 years! The finished product was even better than I anticipated and I recommend Ellie and her services to anyone. Thanks again! – K. O.

Thank you for a job very well done on my resume. I am extremely happy with the approach you take in crafting individual details into one flowing masterpiece. Everything you included about my professional experience and talent was so well put together that I began using the finished document as a tool for interviewing. Within a matter of 2 weeks, I was contacted by a recruiter for a luxury travel company, and I was offered a job that doubled my previous salary. I am most grateful for the time you spent to learn about me. Now I am realizing the greatest opportunity of my life. Thanks a million! – Dan I.

I have been my own boss for the past 15 years, taking over or starting nearly a dozen different businesses during that time. When I found myself looking for a new challenge, I chose to enter the world of corporate America but had no idea where to begin. How can you possibly sum up 15 years of entrepreneurial experience on a page or two? I turned to Ellie for help, and it was the best decision I ever made. Not only did she manage to showcase my accomplishments, but she was also somehow able to capture and express my personality and transform my resume from a mere two-dimensional report card to a living embodiment of who I am. I have no doubt this was instrumental in my ability to rapidly win multiple offers and eventually land the job I coveted. I would recommend her writing and coaching services to anyone seeking a new career and, in fact, I already have! – Dan D.

The results are in…I’m the new Instructional Specialist for XYZ. I could not have done this without you. Your questions, insight, advice, expertise, and writing skills gave me the confidence I needed to pursue this. This is definitely the right move. Since the first interview, I began feeling more confident. I wasn’t thinking/feeling that I was voiceless. If I wasn’t a good fit for the position, then I knew that I had value as an educational leader….The process has been so rewarding. I feel different. I’m thinking differently. And it feels good! – S. A.

I have found a wonderful challenging contract position at XYZ, thanks to your “best” work. I am finally living to work instead of merely working to live. – T. C.

I sent the resume out to two friends, one in medical sales and one an executive recruiter. Both said it was one of the best resumes they had ever seen. – D. D.

I have already had two people that I emailed a copy come back with comments like: “Nicely done! Very well put together. Let me know if okay to share with some hiring executives…” – Mark S.

I can’t thank you enough for the excellent work you have done. This document was, no doubt, crucial to getting this position. Anyone who scripts their own resume is foolish…please use me for a reference! – Jim B.

Just wanted to drop you a line and give you a Praise Report. I will begin a new position with XYZ as the Financial Secretary/Lead Assistant to the head of the organization. Thanks to you I looked good before I even got my foot in the door. I heard comments like: “You have a great resume and we are very impressed!” I hardly had to say anything about myself in the interview…you said it so well for me…thank you from the bottom of my heart. – C. D.

I just wanted you to let you know that I am FINALLY starting my new job with XYZ on Monday. It’s been a long wait (they were making space for the new hires) and I am very excited. I just wanted to say “thank you” for all of your professional help and expertise!!! – Judy H.

Thank you so much for your help. Can you believe you have been doing my resumes for about 10 years? And I have gotten every job I’ve gone after with your resumes – 100%! That’s why I continue to use you even though I’m in California, and I always tell my friends that no one can even get close to what you can do! – K. E.

Thank you for a superb resume. It is a beautiful business document that is well formatted, easy to read, and concisely written. I am certain it will be very instrumental in attracting prospective employers and obtaining interviews for me. – Greg M.

I said I would let you know when I landed a new position; well it happened last week. I’ll be working at XYZ in the St. Louis area. They are a medical devices company, which is great with me. My job hunt really heated up once I began using your resume! – J. G.

Dynamite job on the resume and cover letter! I’m very pleased with the results. I’ll be more than happy to recommend your services to any of my acquaintances. – Anthony H.

From firsthand experience I can give Ellie’s talents an outstanding recommendation. My batting average is 100% with her when it comes to getting an interview. Ellie is an expert at recognizing, crafting and implementing the ‘verbs and achievement measurements’ that are important in an effective resume. She also offers DISC profiling…a huge advantage… – Ed L.

The resume looks great. It is much more concise and powerful than I could have done on my own. Had several friends in high positions critique it for me and they unanimously agreed that it would go to the top of the stack. They said my resume would not only stand out but really give the employer a great sense of my talents. Thanks again! – Stacey F.

I considered writing my own resume but found it to be a frustrating and very time-consuming task. A friend of mine had a resume done “professionally” by another resume service and he was not happy with the results. He showed me the resume an “expert” had come up with and all of a sudden my resume attempt looked much better. I knew that my resume was lacking and I did not feel comfortable presenting it in an interview. I lucked out by finding Ellie because I had literally called all the other resume services, which were answering machines in their homes and did not get a response from any of them. I made an appointment; it was at her office. Ellie asked some good questions which I found later were critical to the resume building process. A long story short, I did feel very confident in my Noteworthy resume, and I was offered a position as Financial Consultant at XYZ. – Jerry B.

Just a note to thank you for your excellent help in preparing my resume and cover letter. I sent out probably 15 or 20 resumes and received a response from all but maybe one or two of them. It took awhile to find the perfect job, but I was hired by a large firm in XYZ, and I am making more money than I was at my previous job. I will recommend your services to anyone I know who is looking for employment. Thanks again. – Mary K.

You have done it again! Excellent job in all aspects of this resume. Thank you, thank you, thank you! – Tony S.

I have reviewed the resume and all I can say is WOW! Thank you so much. – C. L.

…As you know, I was a bit apprehensive in going on an interview after 28 years with the same company. You helped me to alleviate those fears. I cannot begin to thank you for all the extra support, personalized service and follow through you offered while attending to every detail leading up to starting a terrific new job and career! You’re the GREATEST! – Pamela K.

Thank you ever so much for doing such a great job on my resume and cover letter. I am thoroughly pleased with both the content and style. I was especially impressed with your ability to edit the very roughly drafted handwritten notes I sent you into such an attractive and professional finished document. It is a great relief to me knowing I can work with you so well over the phone and through correspondence since I can’t conveniently drop by your office to consult on details in person. I am very reassured by the realization that you have the requisite taste and judgment to make accurate stylistic and editorial decisions without my constant input and approval. Thank you for a job very well done! – David S., MD
