Resume Writing & Career Coaching Session

Resume & Career Strategy Upgrade — $395

This is a focused, practical service designed to help you position yourself clearly, confidently, and credibly — on paper and in real conversations.

It’s ideal if you know you’re capable of more, but your resume, story, or job search strategy isn’t quite reflecting that yet.

What’s Included

Professional Resume Review
I review your existing resume in detail and provide clear written feedback on what’s working, what’s holding you back, and how to improve it.

Complete Resume Rewrite
Drawing on years of recruitment and coaching experience — and reviewing thousands of resumes since founding HiR — I’ll rewrite your CV from scratch in a clean, high-impact Google Doc format that’s easy to update and share.

60-Minute Career Coaching Session
A one-on-one session focused on your goals, strengths, and next move. We’ll get clear on direction, positioning, and how to approach your job search with intention rather than guesswork.

14 Days of Ongoing Support
You’ll have direct access to me via email or WhatsApp for two weeks — to refine applications, prepare for interviews, navigate offers, or sense-check decisions as they come up.

Who This Is For

This service is a good fit if:

  • you’re ready to step up, pivot, or reposition your career

  • you’re unsure how to articulate your value clearly

  • you want honest, experienced input — not generic templates

  • you’re looking for clarity and momentum, not just a prettier CV

How It Works

  1. Book and pay for the service

  2. Email your current resume to HiR

  3. Receive your rewritten resume and written feedback within 72 hours

  4. Attend your 60-minute coaching session

  5. Use the following 14 days of support to keep moving forward

What We’ll Focus On in the Coaching Session

This session goes beyond the resume.

Depending on what’s most relevant for you, we can cover:

  • Career clarity — what you want next and what matters most right now

  • Strengths & storytelling — how to communicate your value without over-selling or underselling

  • Job search strategy — where to focus your energy and how to approach opportunities more strategically

  • Decision support — interviews, offers, pivots, or “stay vs go” questions

You’ll leave with clearer direction, stronger confidence, and a practical plan for what to do next — plus follow-up support to help the changes stick.

This is about rewriting your story with honesty and intent — so the right doors open.

👉 Book the Resume & Career Strategy Upgrade and let’s get to work.

"I really enjoyed working with James. He was so easy to speak to and actually listened to what I was saying. His honest and kind approach helped me to understand what changes I could make in my approach to my job search and my CV and covering letters.

James did some strength testing with me and this was invaluable. When we sat down and went through my results it really opened my eyes and this then had a big impact on my job hunt and my approach in interviews.

I would absolutely recommend James to anyone especially people who feel a bit vulnerable in their job search.

Siobhan's Story
Confidence was shaken after a surprise redundancy, and Siobhan had got herself into a bit of a stressful situation with her job search - sending lots of resumes and hoping to get an interview - but it wasn't strategic.

We revamped her resume to focus on her strengths and achievements, making it a powerful personal sales tool.

We also co-created a strategy for identifying the right roles, started networking to find opportunities, adopted a new approach to applications, and gained a renewed sense of self-confidence, so that interviews became a conversation between equal parties rather than a daunting experience.

Siobhan successfully found a new role within six weeks and negotiated terms to suit her needs as a Mum too!

Let's Supercharge your Career, like Siobhan, you can start today.

Thanks to James's guidance and support, I landed my dream job in less than four weeks!
I highly recommend James as a career coach to anyone seeking guidance and support in their job search journey. Following a layoff, I experienced over 12 months of challenges in the job market, and I was fortunate to connect with James through the LGBTQ+ Professional Network group on LinkedIn.

James deeply understood my situation from our initial conversation and provided invaluable insights. Together, we decided that the Supercharge program was the best fit for me, and it turned out to be a game-changer.

James's expertise and encouragement played a crucial role in rebuilding my confidence after facing numerous rejections. He meticulously upgraded my resume and LinkedIn profile, highlighting my strengths and achievements in a way that truly resonated with potential employers.

It felt like a dream come true, and I am immensely grateful to James for his dedication and expertise. Thank you, James, for helping me navigate a challenging time, believing in me, and empowering me to succeed.

I look forward to continuing our collaboration and achieving even greater milestones together.

Victor's Story
There were two parts to working with Victor.

Firstly, the practical support, including changes to his resume and LinkedIn, ensured that the best story was being told about his professional life and positioned him in the best possible light for the jobs he was applying for. Additionally, HiR provided interview preparation support through coaching, homework exercises, learning materials, and real-time, on-the-day help via WhatsApp.

The second part of the work was on strategy and mindset.

Using deep coaching conversations and supported by between-session homework, Victor redefined his job search strategy, focused on the opportunities that mattered to him, and proactively opened relationships with potential employers.

Victor's most significant shift was his clarity about his career and professional value. He went from the mindset of "I'm trying so hard and getting nowhere" to "This is all going perfectly."

Supercharge YOUR Career like Victor.
