Hire the Best Resume Writers in New York

I am a writer that focuses on resumes, LinkedIn profiles, cover letters, corporate bios, and various business content (websites, marketing materials) for clients. I also have expertise in job search tactics and strategy and offer clients help via one-on-one coaching services over video call or phone. My specialty is technology resumes for the US market targeting start ups (Silicon Valley / San Francisco Bay Area and across the US) with many successes at big name companies (Google, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Tesla, FAANG, et al.). I've also written hundreds of resumes and CVs for global clients from CEO to junior roles across industries including law, marketing, finance, entertainment, and healthcare. My technology clients range from CTO and CIO level, entrepreneurs and founders, product managers, data scientists, software engineers, project managers, infosec, testers, etc. I'm different than most resume writers in that I have 20 years of hiring experience as a recruiter for US startups, so I have deep knowledge of the resume's intended audience. I know how the mind of a recruiter functions - why they stop reading a resume, what gets their interest, etc. - and I leverage that expertise when writing for my clients. I have had many articles on tech career topics (resumes, interviews, markets) published and/or cited by Lifehacker, Fast Company, WSJ Online, American Management Association, Tech Beacon, DZone, et al. My former blog (now inactive) is JobTipsForGeeks.com, and I published a job search ebook Job Tips For Geeks: The Job Search (available on Amazon). I'm 'fecak' on Hacker News and active on Reddit's /r/resumes as 'resumeraidersDOTcom' where I help job seekers with targeted advice on resumes and job search strategy. I'm also a former moderator at /r/cscareerquestions under my own handle 'fecak'. Please have a look at my Upwork history and reach out if you have any questions.

I can write or edit anything and everything -- and, I'm quick!

Teams I've led have included global PR, global media relations, global Employee Communications, events marketing (U.S.), and public policy communications. I have written for external media, employees, shareowners, and more -- everything from press releases, blogs and feature stories to thought-leadership pieces, video scripts and public policy advocacy. I'm honored to have been awarded two Gold Quill Awards from the International Association of Business Communicators. I went on to found two online businesses (including EditingDepot.com LLC) focused on creating and editing all kinds of content and presentations, résumés, LinkedIn profiles, obituaries, eulogies and more. I traditionally write all things in Associated Press (AP) style, but have used other styles as well based on the needs of my clients. For me and the clients I serve, it all comes down to storytelling, and doing it in the most concise and succinct way possible to draw attention and compel action aligned with the goals of each initiative.

Your resume is more than a sheet of paper. It’s the bridge between where you are and where you want to go. If you’re a VP, Director, or C-suite leader, your resume should not just list job titles and responsibilities. It should tell the story of your leadership, impact, and ability to drive business success. I don’t write resumes. I craft executive narratives that reflect your expertise and leadership. With 20+ years in leadership, hiring, and business operations, I understand what decision-makers look for. Having worked as a recruiter and as a writer for an executive career management firm, I help leaders articulate not just what they have done, but how they have led, influenced, and transformed organizations. 🔹 My Approach ✅ Executive Storytelling – I translate career history into a compelling leadership narrative that captures the attention of boards, recruiters, and hiring managers. ✅ Business-Driven Positioning – Your resume is not just about your career. It is about the value and impact you create for the businesses you lead. ✅ Personalized, Strategic, and High-Level – Every resume is built with depth, precision, and a clear understanding of how executives secure high-stakes roles. 🔹 Who I Work With ✅ C-suite Executives | VPs | Directors ✅ Leaders in Finance, Business, HR, Operations, and the Hospitality Industry ✅ Professionals transitioning into executive roles Your career deserves more than a list of job titles. It deserves a story that positions you as the leader you are. Let’s work together to create a resume that reflects your expertise and secures your next opportunity.
