What you need to know about...

Resumes, Key Selection Criteria (KSC) & Cover letters

Tough economic times are no secret; especially in the past eight years in drought. I know because I have a strong family farming heritage and as an employee and employer during that time I have as good an understanding of country people as anybody. In tough times getting the job you really want can be harder than usual so the quality of your application is critical. Let me help with your:

• Resume well written and attractively formatted to sell who you are and what you can offer an employer. Not just skills but who you are and your personal qualities
• Cover letter that specifically hits your desired target and ensures you stand out from the rest
• Responses to Government Selection Criteria that answer the critical questions
• Preparation for the interview and development to effective job seeking strategies.

We can make your life easier by ensuring you give it your best shot. Call or email me and I'll call back at my expense for an obligation-free chat about your needs and how I can help.

How I can help you

If you really want that position, it makes sense to invest in marketing yourself as strongly as possible. Successful Resumes has specialised in marketing people into interviews for nearly 17 years. We know how to write documents that will maximise your chances of being selected. It all starts with us getting to know you and talking to you about where you have been, where you are now, where you want to go and, very importantly, who you are. I can interview you by phone, via Skype or in face-to-face: whatever suits you. If in person, I shall arrange a venue as close to your place of work or home as possible.

Me

Before joining the Successful Resumes Australia group, I was a lawyer and practice partner. This has been invaluable in honing my interviewing skills and in strategically documenting scenarios and responses.

Establishing Successful Resumes Darwin, has provided wonderful synergy to my continuing business writing practice. My love for the region enables me to provide a service to my clients whether they are setting out in their employment career, changing direction or moving upwards.

Contact me at any time for a talk about how I can help you with your employment or business writing needs.

Business writing that works

Others will read and understand your business writing if it’s reader-friendly. That means correct spelling and grammar, legible fonts, structure, spacing, layout, format, paragraphing, headings, punctuation, vocabulary and above all - in plain English. Reader-friendly writing works for your business in:

• letters: says what’s intended and is presented professionally to promote your business.
• policies and procedures: writes down what, how and who in your business operations; avoids reinventing the wheel.
• workplace agreements and job descriptions: specifies your employees’ duties, rights and obligations.
• health and safety documents: to comply with OH&S legal obligations; notices and records.
• tenders, expressions of interest, applications (finance or permits): puts your case clearly and impressively with structure, substance and logic.
• reports: for efficiency, clarity, understanding, acceptance and action.
• business plans: clarifies your business strategy for you, investors, potential partners or lenders.
• marketing information: delivers your message effectively in the fewest possible words.

Ring me for an obligation-free chat about how I can do your business writing for you. We can contact by phone, on Skype or in person; whatever suits you.

For over twenty years I was a practising lawyer, a partner of a legal practice and director of a finance lending company. My experience interviewing and strategically documenting responses was ideal for business writing. For the past five years I have worked in freelance business writing.
