Professionally Written Resumes
Unlock Your Career Potential
With over a decade writing resumes for valued clients, our skills capture individual attributes, highlight value, and importantly perform in competitive employment markets. Benefiting from extensive experience writing across a broad range of industries we identify target roles to design your personalised resume…and we work successfully with high school students, school leavers, and university graduates too.
Our resumes are formatted to ATS standards. Larger recruiters often use Applicant Tracking Systems to
shortlist applicants. So, to assist our clients, we use formatting principles based on ATS benchmark specifications. Your dedicated, degree-qualified resume writer will interview you to better understand your experience and align the content with your career priorities. Once you approve your draft, final documents are provided in Word and as a PDF, with tips for modifications to suit future roles.

Interview Skills

“I have only ever been to 1 interview in my whole 30-year career, so interviewing was something I was so afraid of until I was coached by Jessie. I received an offer from an organisation that created a brand-new position just for me, which was at a higher level than my previous position. I am now working for an organisation that sees my value. Jessie not only wrote me a resume, but she also changed the way I see myself…” Janice, Community Services

“THE WHOLE PACKAGE.
Jessie provided amazing guidance throughout the entire process from looking for a position that I wanted, applying for the position, the interview process, after the interview and even my offer. Jessie helped me not only with my confidence but advising me with what the working world expectations are these days. Her vast knowledge and experience in what employers are looking for and expect is priceless, and her counsel was such a wonderful addition and unexpected part of what she offered…” Violetta, Payroll Manager

Reviews
Our clients have said…
“It is always hard to write about yourself and to try to put what you do down on paper. After talking to Jessie, I knew I had made the right decision… I was instantly at ease with Jessie and she managed to drag all the required info out of me. From there it was incredible to watch my working achievements come to life on paper. Great process and great end result. Thanks for all of the help.”
Kieran, Area Manager
“I highly recommend Jessie from Role Ready for her career guidance and expertise. I first met Jessie over four years ago. I didn’t have a resume or any idea on where to start. Jessie listened to my story and ask very insightful questions to genuinely get to know me and build my confidence in the job application process. Jessie and I are currently working on a new project and she continues to bring out the best in me with her positive disposition and growth mindset. Every opportunity I get I recommend Jessie’s high-quality and personable service. Thank you, Jessie, you’ve played a huge role in my career journey.”
Pete, Electrician
“I can’t possibly thank you enough for all your valuable advice, patience, for the consistently exceptional cover letters, resumes, and interview coaching. You most certainly go above and beyond what anyone could ask or imagine in the service you offer your clients. Thank you so much for your constant encouragement through this journey. As of today I have accepted an offer that truly is a miracle. I highly recommend Jessie and her team to ensure you get the best possible head start on other applicants.”

About Us
No-one enjoys writing about themselves; it is one of the most challenging aspects of writing an effective resume by yourself. That’s why, since 2011, we have taken the time to really get to know our clients one-on-one, so that on every page, we’re not just listing a series of dates and titles, but in every word we sell ‘you’ into your next role.
Every person’s needs are unique, so everything about us is personal. Your call will be answered by us, there are no forms to fill out, and your degree-qualified resume writer will be with you from your first conversation…on the phone, via email, or by Zoom or Teams…for whatever services you need, whenever or wherever it suits you!
We also understand that resume writing in the age of Applicant Tracking Systems (or ATS) requires a scientific approach to content, as well as the creative ability to use relevant language that gets attention. So, we write your resume using appropriate key words and phrases and present it in a format that is easily scanned.
And lastly, if you’ve been wondering: “Should I just use Ai to write my resume?” We were curious too, so we let ChatGPT answer that question for all of us in its own words: Us or Ai?
We look forward to helping you
Us or AI?
Human or AI - who should write your resume?
Are you looking to land your dream job? Your resume is the first impression a potential employer has of you. It’s essential to make sure it showcases your strengths and highlights your accomplishments. But should you turn to AI or a professional resume writer to help you create a winning resume?
Below is the unedited response from ChatGPT to our question…”Good morning ChatGPT – can you please 
write a post that explains the value of using a professional resume writer rather than AI.”
“Good morning! Of course, I’d be happy to help you write a post about the value of using a professional resume writer rather than relying solely on AI.
While AI has come a long way in recent years, it still lacks the human touch and creativity that a professional resume writer can provide. Here are a few reasons why investing in a professional resume writer can be beneficial for your job search:
Personalised Approach: A professional resume writer can work with you one-on-one to understand your specific skills, experience, and career goals. They can tailor your resume to highlight your unique strengths and accomplishments, making you stand out from other applicants.
Human Touch: AI can be useful for identifying and optimizing keywords, but it can’t replace the human touch. A professional resume writer can craft compelling language that showcases your personality, communication skills, and leadership abilities.
Industry Knowledge: Professional resume writers have in-depth knowledge of hiring practices and industry trends. They can ensure that your resume meets current standards and best practices and is tailored to the needs of your desired industry.
Attention to Detail: A professional resume writer will pay close attention to formatting, grammar, and punctuation, ensuring that your resume is polished and error-free.
Confidence: With a professionally crafted resume, you can feel confident and prepared as you embark on your job search. Knowing that your resume is the best possible representation of you can help you feel more confident and capable during interviews and throughout the hiring process.
Overall, while AI can be a helpful tool in creating a resume, it cannot replace the value of a professional resume writer. A professional writer can provide a personalized approach, human touch, industry knowledge, attention to detail, and confidence that an AI cannot replicate. Investing in a professional resume writer can be a worthwhile investment in your career.”
