Every engagement begins with a 60-minute consultation — by phone or Zoom — to understand your background, career goals, and target opportunities. All packages include one round of revisions and delivery in Word and PDF.

Payment link provided after package selection. Contact Steven with any questions before committing.
Every resume Steven writes begins with a genuine conversation — not a questionnaire form or AI prompt. He listens for the narrative arc of your career: the moments that define your expertise, the values that distinguish your professional character, the trajectory that makes your next position a compelling story.
That understanding is what separates a resume that gets filed from one that gets read.
