Thumbs up for Google reviews

Google reviews are a resume writer’s currency.

Every now and then, when we’ve gone the extra 1000 kilometres for a client and crafted a unique resume within the quoted fee, we ask for a Google review.

It shows prospective clients we’re not backyard shonks, who cut and paste text and who operate out of Perth, Sydney or Hobart,

One curious phenomena is the general reluctance of the professional class to leave a Google review.

It’s curious because their resumes take the most work. They often require significant research and consultation.

They don’t want their current or future employer to know they hired professional resume writer.

Even though in my case, I work with employers and employer groups.

I don’t write resumes by myself. How could I possibly write a chemical engineer’s resume without forming a partnership with the client?

Since Republic started in Adelaide in 2007, no employer has ever searched our online reviews, and contacted an applicant who used our services. NEVER.

It’s curious because a good resume writer may be directly responsible for getting you a job and all of the benefits that flow from that.

Worth a Google review? I’ll leave that with you.

The last six months have flown by. We have done a lot of defence and corporate work.

The labour market is changing. More on that in another blog.
