“Great news! I've been offered a position at concord hospital, today I officially accepted the offer. This job was not what I applied for initially, which was an evening shift when I attended the interview, they called me a few days after the interview and said they filled that position but would like to offer me a new position during the day within school hours, I was very happy. Its been a month since I've completed all the pre employment checks and will start in a week. Thank you for your excellent services the resume you put together mirrored everything I wanted to express to my employer.”

“Virginia!!! MANY thanks for your time yesterday. What a great and productive afternoon. I could not have chosen better coach, I will review the document now... again, thanks for going the "extra mile" in order to help me.”

“Hi Virginia, The resume you wrote for me got me a job straight away, within one day! I didn’t even have to go for an interview. I was very happy with my new resume and knew it was pretty good. BUT NO INTERVIEW! I have never heard of this happening before from any of my friends or people in my industry. Great results and I can’t thank you enough.”

“Thank you once again - I feel it was such an important step for me to seek a professional consultation and meet you.  Your guidance was invaluable through my interview process.  I was able to breeze through multiple interview rounds because of your tips, insights and the confidence you instilled in me.  What I found most helpful was your ability to devise relevant practice questions based on the selection criteria and the requirements of the job and how to respond to them in strategic and more effective way.  I am so grateful to you for the growth in my interviewing skills.”

"After an extremely long absence from the workforce, I scoured the internet looking for a professional resume service and was immediately drawn to the website, Sydney Resumes. The website was easy to navigate, addressed many of the concerns I had returning to the workforce following a long absence and had a long list of testimonials from satisfied customers. Following a brief telephone conversation with Virginia Craven, the principal of Sydney Resumes, we met in person to discuss my return to the workforce, the area I would like to work in and my work history. Despite having very little to work with in terms of my professional work history, Virginia was able to utilise all the volunteer work I had undertaken to my advantage. My resume and letter of introduction were both exceptionally well presented and addressed key employability skills. In short, Virginia managed to work a miracle. I am thrilled with the finished product. I have no hesitation in recommending the services of Sydney Resumes."

"I came to Virginia as a university student in my final semester. At the time I had been applying to countless jobs and was not receiving any responses/call backs. As a near graduate with numerous academic accolades and corporate work experience I could not work out why. After visiting Virginia, she transformed my resume and within weeks I started receiving responses/call backs. The layout of my resume was also praised at a career counseling session I had shortly after employing her services. I now work for one of the largest IT companies in the world. The work Virginia did quite literally got my "foot in the door" and provided me with the interview opportunities I needed to showcase my abilities."

Thank you Virginia, I owe you so much for your efforts in helping me gain permanent employment."

I received a number of job interviews and gained a position invaluable to starting me off on my career path. The CV is very well structured and easy to manipulate to add new positions and work experience. I have used this CV as a base for a number of years and still get great compliments for it.

"Virginia was very helpful from the outset. She was willing to go out of her way to meet me personally, learn about my background, personality and the type of CV that I would like for my future position as a Law Graduate. I was very lucky to find a resume writer who was friendly and could accommodate my unique needs. Virginia was also very efficient and did not delay the process. I was very impressed with the quality of her service and ability to meet my specific needs. I got a great job and if I was looking to apply for more senior positions in the future, I would not hesitate to contact Virginia to assist me again."

“Thank you again for all your work on ……. CV. You have completely transformed it! It has been so good to have someone objective and so experienced go through his CV and highlight what is good and what needs to change. Your writing style is excellent, and you have really paid attention to details we didn't even know to include. You have done a wonderful job and we are very grateful. Fingers crossed that this one does the trick. Thanks again”.

"I'm thrilled with my resume. It's a true representation of me."

"Returning to the workforce after many years. Virginia re-defined and summarised my skills showing the organization how my skills, work, life and community experiences were an excellent fit and matched their requirements. Virginia guided me through the responses I needed to make to the selection criteria for the position. I was thrilled when I got an interview to the first job I applied for and more importantly I have a resume that I can build on because Virginia explained to me what the employer wants to see in a resume."

" Just a quick note to say a very big Thank You for your work on my resume and letter of introduction. I'm thrilled with how they both read! You did such a great job of putting the 'real me' on the page, not just what I have done in my career. Thank You."
