| We help you find positions before they're advertised. |
Getting Started:
Email your resume or any other career information to: Careers@Execareers.com for a free analysis.
We'll give you honest feedback on your resume, and let you know how we can help.
If your resume is excellent, passable, or terrible, we'll give it to you straight.
You decide. We'll give you rates and services to meet your specific needs. Our team of experts can compose an expert career marketing piece, and/or develop a customized program with lists of the right contacts at the right companies: the people you need to reach directly to access the so-called "hidden" job market. These jobs aren't really hidden, just not advertised (yet) to the general public. Up to 70% of all jobs are filled this way, through personal Networking.
Networking. At your request, we can coach you on effective Networking - far beyond the obvious - to get you past the resume screening process. We cover how to track down and call the right person at target companies, what to say and how to say it to maximize your chance for a top-level interview, and even increase your chances of creating a new position.
Distribution. We can send your resume to top recruiters, locally or nationally. We can even conduct a search for you and send your materials to recruiters and firms that meet your criteria at just a few, or thousands of large and small companies, in virtually all technical and non-tech fields. We've worked with more than 8000 satisfied clients in all 50 states and around the globe - we know we can help you!

| We go the extra mile. |
We will contact you by phone or email, again in confidence, to talk about your options. We can discuss prices and services applicable to you: whether you need expert coaching on lead development, resume distribution, networking or the latest interviewing techniques.
When we agree on a package, we'll set a time for your personal, in-depth interview, usually the same day or next day. Following the interview, we take between 1-3 working days to develop and write a custom campaign to meet your needs.
You may call your career coach any time with questions or ideas. We're here to help.
It's all tax deductible for our clients in the U.S.
We Become the Bridge Between You and Employers. We know how to link your desire for the perfect job with employer's needs. Our team takes the time to get to know what you really want to do: what's going to make you happy 8-9 hours a day, 5-6 days a week. I titled my books "Top Secret" because they contained some of the secrets of the top resume services, including keywords, designs and formats. It's proven itself for more thanĀ 20 years. But remember, your customized job search program isn't in my book, it's in your head and ours, it just needs to be recognized, developed and marketed. Business guru Tom Peters reminded us that "People like to do business with people who like to do business." We keep a sense of humor on the job because we love helping people advance in their careers, and you'll love working with us, guaranteed!
