Now happily embedded in a wonderful role
I wasn't having much (any) success applying for roles and was stunned with Marks' initial appraisal of my resume.
His candour was refreshing and I found the context he supplied with his critique invaluable as it enabled me a great insight as to how much the job market and recruitment had changed in the last 13 years.
As a direct result of his assistance, I am now happily embedded in a wonderful role with a great company.

Honest feedback on resume
Mark is one of the most honest and supportive career coaches/resume specialists, I have worked with. He has a very clear and direct communication style, always willing to help and offering support and creative inputs, whether it is guidance on answering “hairy” interview questions or tailoring a resume for a specific application. This support is often required at very short notice and Mark has always been able to fit in a last-minute request. Mark has an outstanding gift with words. I will recommend Mark to anyone seeking honest feedback on their resume or fresh inspiration for seeking a new job opportunity.

What you'll get
Design overview: are you being blocked by ATS?
Will it get past Applicant Tracking Systems? Is this a big deal? Absolutely if you are applying for jobs online. Your applications might be blocked simply because of the style of your resume.
Content critique: are you saying the right thing?
Are you giving recruiters what they really want? You typically have just 7 seconds to grab their attention - or be rejected. Your resume needs to get - and keep - the attention of recruiters and hiring managers.
Video breakdown: want the harsh facts?
Suggested edits are fully explained in a video breakdown. No generic reports that could apply to anyone. It's up close and personal!
Actionable advice: want to know how to put things right?
Each edit is fully explained in terms of how this will affect your future applications - ie how you will get a response rather than silence.
30 minute coaching call: what else needs improving?
Your resume is just one part of getting a new job. Get a one on one call over phone/What's App/Skype/Zoom to discuss improvements or any other questions you may have..

I wish I did this years ago
I was recommended Mark’s services by another contact. Mark’s initial response to my query was prompt, professional and clear. From my first resume video review I knew Mark was the coach I needed. His advice is clear, honest and allowed me to grow, develop and gain confidence to make my own decisions. I wish I did this years ago

I landed my dream job
After applying for many jobs without getting feedback on my applications, I have contacted Mark on a friend recommendation. Mark was easy to connect with and quickly after sending my resume, I received detailed video feedback with comments. His comments and suggestions were straight to the point and actionable. I reworked my resume and went a couple of time back and forth with Mark for adjustments. With my new resume in hand, I applied for the type of roles I was targeting and quickly got responses and eventually interviews. After 3 months of research, job applications and interviews I have landed my dream job
