Beat the recession! Learn the resume writing secrets that will get you hired - even in a down economy.

Introducing my step-by-step resume writing system ...

• Are you frustrated by a lack of response to your resume?
  
• Do you keep writing and rewriting it without really knowing what will work?
  
• Do you sometimes feel as though you're sending it into a black hole every time you apply for a job?
  
• Do you feel defeated by this economic downturn?

If you said yes to any of these questions, I know how you feel because I talk to job seekers every day. Looking for a job is hard enough in good times, but when the economy takes a nosedive, it gets even more challenging.

The Good News

As a professional resume writer, I see a lot of resumes and 99% of them are just not good enough. It's a sad fact that most people have no idea how to write an effective resume, but if you are one of them, you are losing out.

This is important to understand - the recession isn't the only reason that you are not getting results. If you're like most people, your resume is just as much to blame.

I would be willing to bet that you have wonderful personal characteristics and strong skills that you haven't mentioned in your resume. I bet you've added value to your previous employers in ways that you haven't described. In short, I bet you are much more accomplished than a stranger would ever know from reading your resume.

That's why you’re not getting the responses you deserve!

And that's why learning to write a great resume can completely transform your job search. Once your resume truly reflects the value you have to offer employers, they will start to call you in for interviews. It's really that simple.

There’s a mountain of information out there about resume writing ... and honestly, most of it is nonsense!

If you’re like me, you surf the web for information when you have a problem. That’s probably how you landed on this page.

But when it comes to resume writing, there are so many options all screaming for your attention - how do you know who to trust?.

• There are professional resume writers like me, who are advertising their services for hundreds of dollars. (Some of these writers are wonderful, but if you were willing to pay that much, I don’t think you’d be surfing the web for information).
  
  
  
• There are free resume builder systems claiming you can have a great resume in minutes. (This is like promising you can lose 10 lbs in one day – it’s nonsense! You can’t create a great resume in 10 minutes and a fancy system doesn’t change the fact that you need to write great content).
  
  
  
• There are free information sites that are really just affiliate marketing sites. They pepper links throughout the copy and hope to make money when you click on one. (The content for these sites is usually sub-par – it’s written to attract search engines, not to help you with your resume).
  
  
  
• There are sites offering free resume samples but no explanation of how to use them effectively. (Seeing a nice sample resume does nothing to help you develop a sales message that will generate interviews and job offers for you).
  
  
  
• And worst of all, there are agencies who will charge unsuspecting job seekers thousands of dollars for help that’s worth next to nothing. (If you see a site like this and want to know if it’s legit, shoot me an email at "info at blueskyresumes dotcom." I know every one of these scam artists and I’d be happy to take a look).

Not one of these options is giving you what you need - an easy-to-follow proven system for transforming your resume.

Disreputable agencies who charge thousands of dollars for job search help make me angry! They are are the reason I finally decided to share my resume writing secrets.

I’ll be honest, writing a book is hard and I put it off for a few years. But over a period of a few months, I met several job seekers who had been ripped off by so-called “professionals” claiming to have resume secrets to share. In truth, they knew nothing more than I know – usually much less – and I wouldn’t dream of charging those prices.

Yes, there are secrets to writing a great resume. Yes, if you know those secrets you will get more interviews and better job offers. But are those secrets worth $8,000? (that's what one of my clients was charged by a 'job finding agency') I don't think so. I don't think you should have to be rich to get a great job.

So I finally knuckled down and put my resume writing system on paper, with detailed instructions and tons of real world examples that will take you all the way from blank page to job interview.

It took me almost a year to write because I wanted to be sure I covered everything.

The system I outline in this book is the same one I teach the writers who work for me. It’s a system I developed based on my 15+ years as an HR executive and it’s the system I use to help hundreds of job seekers every year.

"Why I'm letting other people in on my secrets?"

I used to hoard my knowledge. After all, people pay me hundreds, sometimes thousands, of dollars to help them find a new job. I'm one of an elite group of resume writers who is well known and respected enough to charge top dollar for my services.

(If you want to check me out, just google ‘Louise Fletcher” + resume or “Blue Sky Resumes” – you’ll find plenty of information. You have to add the "+ resume" otherwise you'll just find lots of articles about the actress who played Nurse Ratchett in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest!)

So why tell you my secrets for just the price of an eBook?

Because my company has reached the size I'm happy with. I don't have ambitions to run a big corporation. We have a few writers and one assistant and I don't have to work crazy hours to keep things running smoothly. Without expanding further, we can't take on more clients than we already handle.

So writing a book has allowed me to help many more people than I can take on as clients, and increase my revenue without working crazy hours. Everyone wins. (Except the job seekers who'll be competing against you for a job!)
