Frequently Asked Questions
Am I a good match for your career service needs?
I work with senior executive who are leaders in their field and know exactly when to rely on their own expertise and when to obtain outside help. My clients are aware that they are experts in turning around companies and delivering YoY growth initiatives but that their career branding and resume writing is not one of their specialties.
As one of approximately 35 Certified Executive Resumes Masters worldwide, I am a good match for potential clients who hold C-Suite positions, advisory board roles, and senior executive titles who are open to a new resume writing and career branding approach.

How does the resume writing process work?
As a first step, I will review your current resume and additional materials to determine your needs. In the vast majority of cases, I will need more information from your end to make your resume truly stand out. I utilize a Client Intake & Branding Sheet to gather and unearth this additional information. Depending on your personal preference, you can go through this intake sheet on your own or I can walk your through it over the phone. Whichever you prefer.

How long does the executive resume writing process take?
Once I receive your input on the Client Intake & Branding Sheet, I typically have a resume draft for you within 5 business days for your review. I will develop your optimized LinkedIn profile and cover letter after we complete the resume writing process. Rush resume service might be available upon request and additional cost.

Will I be able to review and make change recommendations to the resume draft?
Absolutely. I want to hear your thoughts and, if applicable, potential ideas for further optimizing your executive message. I want you to be completely satisfied with your career documents.

In what situations will I benefit from career coaching?
This will depend on your specific situation and goals. Having said that, in my practice I frequently experience that even the most diligent executives will not apply their business and leadership know-how to their own career advancement campaigns. Your resume and supporting written career marketing documents are only one essential part of a successful and effective job search campaign. Are you confident that you are conducting a strategic and proactive campaign? What do you know about the Hidden Job Market? Are you sure you are leveraging the full power of LinkedIn?

"3 executive recruiters calls within 2 weeks after I started distributing the resume Tim had developed for me. I am still thinking about how much easier I could have made this for myself if I had reached out to Tim earlier." Louise P., Operations Executive
