LinkedIn Profiles
Have you heard of LinkedIn?
Most people have heard of the platform LinkedIn, but many of the people I speak with are unsure of how to use LinkedIn on a daily basis, much less use it to support their goal of finding a new position, or “branding” themselves.
Career Coaching
Are you feeling stuck in your career and not sure how to move forward? How is it that some professionals get the best jobs and have loads of opportunities, while others struggle in their career? Working with a career coach allows you to implement a job search strategy, practice interviewing skills and build the right tools to help you land the next role sooner, and with higher job satisfaction.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HiConsulting Services works with individuals to provide career coaching, improve resumes and cover letters, optimize LinkedIn profiles and develop your personal brand.
Current hiring automation requires a resume that is written to get found. Using old resume writing techniques will cause the hiring manager to totally miss your resume, even if you’re perfect for the job. Let us show you how to update your resume and get that interview.
A typical engagement will last 7-10 business days. A resume analysis is completed within the first 48 hours and an initial resume draft is delivered within the next 5-7 business days.
However, the length of a resume writing project varies depending on your career stage and services selected.
Expedited resume writing services are available upon request.
We don’t always get things right the first time around. So, we allow for up to 2 resume revisions within 30 days.
Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is a tool used in the recruitment process. ATS searches your resume for key items such as dates, skills and keywords that relate to the position you are applying for.
- Adding a “Skills” section at the beginning of your resume and list the top keywords from the job advertisement.
- Only use black font. Some ATS convert resumes into plain text and will only see words in black font
- Include education and certifications, even if they are in progress. If you have not yet completed your degree or program, use the phrase “Pursuing XYZ Certification”
- Upload your resume in word (.doc, .docx) file formats instead of PDFs. Some ATS such as Jobvite cannot read PDF files correctly.
- Completely spell out terms in addition to abbreviations and acronyms. For example, Certified Public Accountant (CPA).
- Less is More. Some ATS calculate your match rate based on signal-to-noise ratio. Meaning, the more irrelevant text you have, the lower you’ll rank in the ATS.
Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) help recruiters save time (and paper!) when reviewing thousands of resumes. ATS is also searchable, so your resume can easily be reviewed at a later date if needed. Lastly, ATS helps companies ensure they are in compliance with recruiting standards.
Not all companies have made the switch to ATS. However, there are some free online tools that are very similar to ATS. It’s important to note that even if you have a personal connection through your network, your resume will typically need to be submitted to the company’s applicant tracking system for compliance reasons.
Our 6-week Career Change program includes six individual coaching sessions, with a different focus each week. We will work together to outline a strategy, prepare the necessary tools such as a resume and online profile, and master necessary skills such as interviewing and salary negotiation.
