Review of... ResumeEdge.com 

Online since 1998, ResumeEdge.com has been tapped to be the resume partner for Yahoo! HotJobs, Dice.com, the Wall Street Journal's CareerJournal.com, and a number of other high-profile career services providers. Not to mention the U.S. Air Force. Pretty good company to be keeping.

With over 250 resume writers and career coaches specializing in 40 different industries, Resume Edge is one of the leading resume writing and editing services online. In fact, they've written over 100,000 resumes while maintaining a 98% satisfaction rating with their clients, a testament to the caliber of their writers and the company's commitment to customer service.  

How It Works:

Select the resume writing service that best fits your experience level (student and entry-level, professional, or executive). Note: prices listed in the upper right-hand box are for a resume built from scratch. If you have an existing resume that is simply not generating results, you'll be looking at their resume editing service -- and a savings of $20 to $30 depending on your experience level.

Pay online for the service, complete their exclusive questionnaire detailing your strengths and accomplishments, and upload your existing resume, if you have one. A writer in your specialty area will contact you to arrange and conduct a personal phone interview.

The resume is prepared within 48 to 72 hours after assignment to your writer. Your order is delivered in Microsoft Word format, and accessible via the Resume Edge customer control panel. For no additional charge, receive an ASCII version of your resume, as well as a Web resume at WebResume.com. 

After your resume has been delivered, you have 7 days to continue working with your writer one-on-one, via phone and email, if you feel the need for any changes or corrections.

Here's What We Liked:

• Only Certified Professional Resume Writers. But that's just the start. To work for this company, each writer must get through the firm's ultra strict hiring process. Only 1 applicant in 100 succeeds.
• One-on-one consultation is in their DNA. The telephone interview is an integral part of their business model, something for which we give high marks. 
• You've got the option to select your resume's design. Point out a design from the company's extensive gallery, or have your writer determine the layout best suited to your experience and goals.
• Your resume is keyword optimized. If your resume can't be found, then you don't exist. Keyword optimizing allows your resume to pop up in database searches by prospective employers. It's good to exist.
• Free ASCII version of the resume. This, in addition to the standard Microsoft Word format, and a free Web resume.
• Sample resumes are available on the web site. We like the quality of writing we see.
• Top rating by the BBB. In fact, they were the only online resume service that we surveyed that had an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
• Pricing is reasonable. And spelled out in detail on their website.

Resume Edge - Review Summary:

In sum, we like the fact that the venerable and highly selective Wall Street Journal gave these resume writers the nod and partnered with them on their online publication CareerJournal.com. To us, that speaks volumes, as does the 98% customer satisfaction rate. Not to mention the A+ rating by the BBB, something that should give prospective customers comfort.

We believe the Edge delivers highly competitive resumes, attentive customer service, and real value to its customers. We give them our highest rating.
