Dear. Mr. Flynn,
I am the spouse of an Army National Guard Command Sargeant Major (RET). I currently volunteer for an organization that offers the services you speak of regarding resume assistance. Welcome Home Resumes was developed specifically for veterans and their families. It is an interactive resume, straight-forward and common-sense, that is geared toward translating your military knowledge and tasks into civilian skills. We work hands-on with you throughout the entire process, from development of your resume,to job postings and interview preparedness. The resume outlines your previous civilian education, military education, any awards and medals you have earned with links through to their description and requirements for earning them (particularly liked by HR as it highlights the skills and knowledge and dedication), audio responses to two common interview questions, a professional headshot, links to your social media, a downloadable hard copy of the resume in .pdf or Word format, all in one document that is easily posted to any job site with the click of a button via built-in email. If you do not have a professional email, one is provided to you as well as Resume Cards which are 2 x 3.5 summary cards of your pertinent information with a QR code directly to your online resume. All at no cost to you, ever.
This interactive resume was developed after 2 years of research with veterans and HR personnel in order to understand the frustrations on both sides. HR particularly likes this resume format because everything they need is in one place.
The staff is made up entirely of volunteers who are passionate about what they do.
You can look at a sample of the interactive resume at http://sample.welcomehomeresumes.org/ or call 888-900-4133. Thank you for your service. We would be honored to assist you.
Sincerely,
Joyce Cerroni
