One of our founders, the individual who originally conceived
the idea of the Federal Resume Toolbox™, was a HR Professional in
the US Office of Personnel Management and had nearly two decades of
government experience. His roles included interviewing
hiring officials, developing job descriptions, and posting them on USAJobs.gov. As applications came in, he reviewed the
resumes and corresponding documentation to determine whether or
not candidates were qualified for further consideration and a
possible interview. Between the a) questions he was asked by
friends, family, acquaintances, and referrals, and b) the sheer
volume of resumes he's had to disqualify due to lack of
information, he realized that there was a lack of understanding
by the general public of what it takes to write a winning
federal resume.
As he researched what resources were available, he found that
they were quite limited and fell into several categories:
- Professional Federal resume writing services that cost
$100s to $1,000s to engage.
- 300+ page books that were difficult to understand and
provided too much irrelevant information.
- Vague tips on the Internet that either didn't give
enough information, or weren't applicable to writing a
Federal resume.
As the economy declined and more people started applying to
Federal job postings, he realized that the need for information
that is easy to understand and use was greater than ever.
As a result, we have developed the Federal Resume Toolbox™ to
help you write an effective Federal resume. While we can't
guarantee that using the Federal Resume Toolbox™ will get you hired, we can promise that
the essential, clear-cut, concise
information provided will help you write a Federal resume that
is far
superior to the majority of resumes that government HR
professionals see every day. |
