Frequently asked questions
Do you write USAJobs / federal resumes?
Yes. Federal resumes follow a distinct format — typically 3–5 pages, with required series and grade markers, KSAs called out, specific contact and citizenship information. We deliver both a private-sector resume and an optional USAJobs-ready version.
How do you translate military experience for civilian hiring managers?
Our writers have specific experience with military-to-civilian transitions. We translate MOS / AFSC / Rate codes into role-equivalent civilian titles, render leadership of teams and budgets in business language, and surface quantified outcomes — people led, budgets managed, deployments completed.
What about security clearance — should I include it?
Yes. Clearance level (Secret, TS, TS/SCI, with or without poly) is one of the most valuable assets on a transition resume. We include it prominently, with current or inactive status if relevant.
I’m a military spouse re-entering the workforce — can you help?
Yes. Military spouse careers often include resume gaps from PCS moves, multiple short-tenure roles across geographies, and informal work like volunteering or contracting. We frame these in resume-positive terms and address gaps directly so recruiters don’t have to guess.
How long until I see results?
Most clients see interview invitations within 2–4 weeks of applying with their new resume, depending on target sector. Defense contracting and federal roles typically have longer cycles (6–12 weeks).
Do you offer a guarantee?
Yes. Our Career Growth and Executive Priority packages include a 45-day interview guarantee. If you don’t receive an interview invitation within 45 days of using your new resume, we revise it free of charge.
Will you write my LinkedIn profile too?
LinkedIn profile rewriting is included in our Executive Priority package, or available as an add-on to other packages. For transitioning service members, LinkedIn is often where recruiters find you first — we recommend including it.
