What I Do
I offer the following services:
- Resume writing
- Career advice from an HR professional
- Building your LinkedIn profile
- Advice on how to deal with recruitment agencies
- Writing cover letters (general or customised)
- Writing selection criteria
I craft every resume from scratch, and take the time to understand what you have done in the past. I analyse your work history and craft a resume accordingly. You can rest assured that your resume will be professional, effective and easy to read. I concentrate on things such as your achievements, machines you have operated, projects you have worked on and other things that your next employer will want to know.
My clients are mainly involved in the mining and construction industry, however I do get more and more clients from other professions who are seeking a professional and effective resume or a transition to other industries. I also assist those wishing to enter the mining industry with not only a resume but also with qualified advice.
I also provide:
- A list of WA mining and construction companies relevant to the position you are seeking. This contains over 130 companies that operate in the mining and construction field in Western Australia. I assist by narrowing this list to include only relevant companies so you don't waste time sending applications to irrelevant companies.
- Advice on how to contact the right person. This method is widely used by recruitment consultants and it will set you apart from the rest of the job seekers.
- Guide to cold-calling companies about jobs. This is a script that tells who you should approach, how you should approach them and what you will need to say. In this document there is a sample email that you can send to the employer thanking them for their time. This will leave a lasting impression on your potential employer.
- Advice on training and courses to improve your chances in securing the job you want.
- Job search plan. This is a simple tool that you can use to keep track of your applications.
- Assistance to those from the eastern states looking to gain employment in the WA mining industry.

Please note that above products are not suitable for every profession. I will be able to advise you on this in your initial consultation.
How you and I will work together:
- I can meet with you face-to-face. I'll sit down with you and go through your work history.
- Two to three days after the consultation, I'll provide your first draft via email. You review the draft, and advise me of any changes.
- I will email you the final version (in Word format), and will also send you a hard copy, and a copy on a USB.
