🥇 Expert-vetted top 1% on Upwork. 🥇 Industry leader with 10+ years partnering directly with hiring managers at Google, Meta, Apple, Tesla, and Amazon. I've written 5,000+ resumes and reviewed 100,000+ applications. My clients have a 95% interview rate within 60 days. That's not luck. That's strategy. Recruiting is split into two worlds: 50% algorithm, 50% human judgment. Most candidates fail at one. I make sure you win at both. I specialize in the 10-second test, passing ATS filters that screen 80% before any human reviews your application. My expertise comes from a decade of hands-on work with ATS platforms like Workday, Lever, Greenhouse, iCIMS, BambooHR, and Jobvite. I understand exactly how these systems parse resumes and what signals matter to both machines and hiring managers. This goes far beyond keyword stuffing. I've spent years reverse-engineering what actually works across different environments and how to design resumes that pass automated screening and command recruiter attention. My MBA thesis focused on technology and talent acquisition has earned me the chance to be featured in MarketWatch, Yahoo Finance, and Digital Journal, which informs every resume I build. Every project is handled personally by me. No outsourcing. No templates. No cookie-cutter approaches. Just a tailored strategy that reflects your unique value and authentic voice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 📢 “But what about AI? Don’t online resume builders handle that now?” 📢 Fair question. Tools like ChatGPT or Claude are fast, but they're not strategic. They generate clean formats and surface-level keyword matches, which sounds good until you realize the output looks like 10,000 other resumes. Generic. Repetitive. Disconnected from your career narrative. Here's what tools can't do: capture complexity. A non-linear career path. Leadership potential buried in your experience. Technical depth that needs to translate into business value. These platforms aren't built to understand how hiring managers actually evaluate talent or what signals they're reading between the lines. I understand the technical layer (how ATS parses resumes) and the human layer (how recruiters assess intent, growth, and cultural fit). That combination is where strategy happens. I don't just fill in templates. I structure your entire narrative around what actually drives hiring decisions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 🕒 Ready to get serious about your next move? Here is how it works. 🕒 1) Strategy Conversation: We start by understanding your goals, what's been holding you back, and how you want to position yourself in the market. 2) Diagnostics: I audit your current resume against ATS requirements and what hiring managers are actually looking for. You get clear feedback on what's working and what needs to change. 3) Narrative Mapping: We map out your career story. This isn't just listing achievements, it's positioning them so they answer what hiring teams are actually asking. 4) Resume Drafting: I build your resume with every section intentional. Achievements are contextualized, keywords are strategic, and your voice comes through. 5) Refinement Rounds: You review the draft, I iterate based on your feedback. We continue until the final version reflects both strategic precision and your authentic voice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Resume Writing | Resume Strategy | Career Positioning | ATS Optimization | Executive Resume | Senior Resume | Tech Resume | Career Transition | Job Search Strategy | Interview Preparation | LinkedIn Optimization | LinkedIn Profile Writing | Personal Branding | Career Coaching | Recruiting Strategy | Hiring Systems | Keyword Optimization | Resume Formatting | Certified Resume Writer | CPRW | Modern Resume | CV Writing | Talent Acquisition | FAANG

Need a reliable Social Media VA to keep your business consistent and visible online? I help service-based businesses and growing brands manage the recurring work behind their social media, from content organization and publishing to Canva graphics, scheduling, research, and day-to-day social media support. If you already have photos, videos, ideas, brand assets, or a content plan but don't have the time to keep everything organized and published consistently, I can take care of the execution. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗜 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀: Social Media Management: ● Social media management and daily updates ● Content Organisation and publishing ● Content scheduling and calendar support ● Social media account support ● Instagram and Facebook content management ● Social media engagement ● Content repurposing and organization Content & Design: ● Canva social media graphics ● Social media posts, Stories, and visual content ● Short-form video and Reel support ● Content formatting and resizing ● Content organization and preparation for publishing ● Applying existing brand guidelines and templates Marketing & Research Support: ● Internet and market research ● Prospect research ● Lead generation support ● Social media research ● Content and campaign support ● Marketing task coordination ● Competitor and audience research 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁: I focus on taking recurring social media and marketing tasks off your plate and making sure they are completed consistently. I can work with your existing content, brand guidelines, templates, instructions, and processes rather than requiring you to rebuild your workflow. Whether you need someone to organize and publish content, prepare Canva graphics, support short-form video, schedule social media posts, research prospects, or handle recurring marketing tasks, I can step in and keep the work moving. 𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝗜 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 I work particularly well with: ● Service-based businesses ● Professional services firms ● Beauty, wellness, and lifestyle businesses ● Event and venue businesses ● Growing brands with an active social presence ● Small marketing teams that need reliable execution support 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁? You don't always need another person to develop your entire marketing strategy. Sometimes you need someone who can take the approved content, assets, instructions, and recurring tasks and actually get the work done. I focus on being dependable, organized, detail-oriented, responsive, and consistent. I follow existing processes carefully, keep recurring tasks organized, and communicate when something needs attention. Have Social Media Tasks Sitting on Your To-Do List? If you need someone to keep your social media content organized, prepared, scheduled, published, and supported consistently, send me a message and tell me what you're currently struggling to keep up with. Let's take those recurring tasks off your plate.
