Is this right for you?

Our community services resume writing service is for you if any of these sound familiar.

Your resume undersells the outcomes you've delivered for clients

You've managed complex caseloads, met practice standards and improved client outcomes - but your resume reads like a job description rather than a track record.

You're stepping up from frontline practice into coordination or management

From support worker to team leader or service manager - and your resume needs to bridge the gap between direct practice and leadership capability.

You're applying for roles assessed against selection criteria

Many community services roles assess you against set criteria. Your resume needs to evidence each one clearly, with real outcomes behind it.

Not sure if this is the right fit? Submit your resume for a free review and a specialist will tell you honestly what needs to change and which service, if any, makes sense for you. Start with a free review

FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

Do your resume writers have experience in community services?

Yes. Since 2011 we've grown our team to 65 specialist resume writers working across 72+ industries, and we've written more than 60,000 resumes for over 920 professions. We match you with the community services specialist with the most relevant experience for your role.

How long does it take?

Your first draft is delivered within 3 business days of your consultation call, which is usually scheduled for the next business day after you book. Express 1 and 2 business day turnarounds are also available.

Who will be working on my resume, and how do we communicate?

A specialist consultant from our Australian-based team works with you from start to finish. It starts with a one-to-one consultation by phone or Zoom, typically around an hour. After that you can reach your consultant by phone, Zoom or online chat in your account.

Will my resume get past applicant tracking systems (ATS)?

Yes. Most employers and job boards use ATS software to filter applications, and most applications are filtered by these systems before a recruiter sees them. Every resume we write is ATS-optimised with the keywords and formatting your target roles are screened for.

Can I request revisions?

Yes. Revisions are unlimited. Your consultant delivers requested changes by 5pm the following business day, and we keep going until your resume is exactly right.
