I?ve had the pleasure of working with Robert James twice in
recent years.  First, he prepared my
resume for a promotion within my company, which I did receive, and then again,
when I applied for an outside position. The resume accomplished what I had
hoped for ? an interview, despite a crowded field of candidates.  In both cases, I was completely confident
that my resume would stand out from the crowd and highlight my best
accomplishments.  Mr. James is easy to
work with, provides excellent insights into the whole job-hunting process. My
confidence soared. I have happily recommended him to family and friends, who
were equally pleased with their outcomes.

I would recommend Roberts services to anyone in need of help  He simplified my resume and linkedin profile, so that it was more HR friendly.  He was very quick and easy to work with and seems that he is willing to answer my questions that may come up in the future.

Robert is one of the most arrogant, pompous and rude individual I have ever dealt with. He is so full of himself and thinks he is the best out there but my dealings with him were nothing but miserable. He made mistake after mistake. One would think he would at least know proper grammar but he was not even capable of that. He could not even get my name correctly! On top of everything, he wanted me to do a lot of the work I was paying him to do! This poor excuse for a human being also called my home at 4 am, lied to me and when I called him about the refund he promised me and I did not receive he cursed me out and hung up. Avoid him at all costs... LITERALLY!
Response from Confidential Résumé Writing
"{Member Name Removed} is your classic victim. He assumes no responsibility for anything, which may account for why he has numerous judgments and liens against him, including a substantial judgment by the Probation Department of Delaware County. {Member Name Removed} complaint seems to focus on having to perform work. He was provided detailed instructions on how to interview properly, how to set up a LinkedIn account, how to improve his Gmail and how to have a decent headshot taken. He is under the impression these were my responsibilities. Hence, the classic victim syndrome. This is not the first time {Member Name Removed} has swindled a résumé service. Andrew was refunded his money 10 minutes of his request on 9/09/15. {Member Name Removed} waited 7 weeks before contacting Master Card for a duplicate refund. In Ohio, this is consider a criminal act under Ohio’s Revised Code. On 10/29/15, the credit card processing company was alerted to the crime, and {Member Name Removed}{Member Name Removedf} attempted credit card fraud was stopped."

"How does that old saying go? No good deeds should go unpunished. Do not honestly recall the phone conversion after these many months. A check of my “sent emails” indicates there were no email exchanges—no requests—and no feedback. This was an edit only project, based entirely on furnished material. Editing, of course, does not involve asking for new information. It is always enlightening to learn (after the fact) what someone did not tell me. “I never said I wanted to take a shortcut or save money.” I take exception to this individual remark that “I was talked into a cheaper … service.” I merely offered options. Her decision to have me only edit her material was strictly her decision—no one else’s."

I needed a rapid turn around on a resume that was old and out of date.  He did an excellent job in reformatting and making it modern and coherent..  His books and materials were an added bonus

Competent service but I did not feel he really understood the proper terms to use for an accounting professional's resume
Response from Confidential Résumé Writing
"Sorry to learn of jobseeker’s feelings. Without a doubt, job hunting can be a stressful undertaking for anyone. I can state the jobseeker did not previously communicate her feelings anytime within the last 22 months. My notes indicate this was an editing project. As such, any editing would have been based solely upon the information provided—in this case, to make the résumé reader friendly. That was all I was requested to do, which I performed promptly."

We definitely would recommend them and in fact, my husband already has. The quality of the service was excellent. They were very responsive.

Communication with Robert is easy and he is prompt with his responses in both E-mail and telephone conversations.
Robert guided me to get LinkedIn and to post a photo.  Also, he guided me to create a Google cloud folder and to adjust what I uploaded to be shared.    He worked with me to personalize my resume to fit what position I am looking for and gave his professional suggestions to what is better with many aspects during the resume construction. His book "Dynamic Interviewing Techniques" is a must read for every job applicant to know what the interviewers mean and what hides behind their smiles and "casual marks".  It will prepare you to think about your responses and how long your answer should be and what traps to avoid.
Response from Confidential Résumé Writing
"(member name removed) was equally responsive, which in turn made it a fun project to assemble. He was receptive to suggestions--thus making complex modifications were easy. Of course, this individual is extremely well qualified, which was also a contributing factor."

Well, as a no nonsense person, Robert and I were well matched.  He gathered information in a way that encouraged strong responses with no room for fluff.  This resume was one I definitely needed help with, as it had been thirty years since the last one, and I wanted to explore a a different profession, although using the same skills.  Robert's email correspondence and phone conversations were encouraging, designed to get the job completed but making sure that I felt that this resume was thoroughly representative.  When he was done, I looked at the resume and thought "BAM, this is right on the mark."  It felt honest and like it had punch, without arrogance. Therein lies Robert's strength.  He has a good read on people, knows what might need clarification in a resume, and the ability to tell a person, "Yes, that is interesting information, but we won't put that in, and here's why."
  Robert was also helpful about suggesting a different picture for the resume, and explaining the rationale, as well as guiding me through a few of the features on GoogleDrive.  When we were done, I felt it had been an excellent experience and that I had chosen wisely, when initially combing through the Angie's List of service providers.  I have just started looking for work, but since I am already employed can take my time.  Already, I have two interviews set up for the next couple of weeks.  With Robert's excellent interviewing questions and guide for preparation, I feel confident and ready for whatever will be asked!
Response from Confidential Résumé Writing
"And a big "thank you" back. Every effort is made to provide each client with what the individual needs. In this particular case, the client's wants matched what I honestly thought he needed. That is simply the best of both worlds. I was glad to be of service."
