FAQs

  • Why should I use Simplicity Resume Consulting (SRC) to create/edit my career marketing documents?
    SRC is your ideal choice for creating and editing your career marketing documents (resume, cover letter, etc.) because we offer a personalized 1:1 experience tailored to showcase your best self. While there are many competitors out there, most will charge based on the type of position you're applying for. Additionally, while AI tools can be helpful, they often result in resumes that look like everyone else's. At SRC, we believe you need more than just a polished resume to land the position you’ve always wanted. Our approach combines expert resume writing with career coaching, ensuring you stand out from the crowd. With our affordable packages, we offer the perfect starting point to craft a standout resume and receive the guidance you need to advance your career.
  • What are your pricing plans?
    We've recently streamlined our services into three great packages. Our Career & Beyond Package is our highest package which offers 5 career coaching sessions and all of the career marketing documents you need including the resume, template cover letter, and a Professional Social Media (LinkedIn) Boost. The Confidence Package is our middle tier, which offers the career marketing documents. And the Resume Analysis Package which allows the career coach to review your resume and provide recommendations but this plan can be combined with the Confidence and the Career & Beyond Package. Please go to our Services page for more information.
  • Does SRC do federal government resumes?
    The simple answer is yes—you do not need a separate resume for private industry or the federal government. While you may be asked to use the USAJobs.gov template for federal positions, the information you provide is exactly the same as your custom resume. Unlike some competitors who claim you need a separate resume to charge you more, we believe in a streamlined, effective approach that saves you time and money while ensuring your resume works for any position.
  • Does SRC do military resumes?
    Yes, absolutely! We understand that transitioning your military skills to the civilian workforce is key. That’s why our consultation process is the same whether you're aiming for entry-level, professional/mid-career, or federal government roles. At SRC, we believe in providing value without complicating things—so we don’t have multiple pricing levels based on the "type" of resume you need. We’re here to help you effectively present your skills for any career path you choose.
  • How do I get started with 1:1 career coaching sessions?
    To get started, go to the Contact Us form and select the service called the Career & Beyond Package. With this package, you’ll receive 5 one-on-one career coaching sessions, along with your customized career marketing documents. After selecting the package, you’ll receive an email with instructions to either book a FREE 15 minute Discovery Call or directly schedule your price consultation package. For consultations, please allow 1-2 business days for us to contact you and confirm your appointment.
  • Are your consultations and career coaching sessions in-person or virtual?
    All services provided by SRC are virtual. The resume writing consultations are via phone call. Our career coaching sessions are via video teleconference or phone call.
  • Can you guarantee me that I will get hired?
    No, unfortunately we cannot guarantee that you will get hired. However, we can guarantee you a custom resume that will stand out against your competition. The resume is only the first step. In order to get you hired, a resume is the first impression an employer will have of you, but each employer has their own recruiting and interviewing process. In taking the time with us, we will create the best resume and more that shows who you are and will help navigate you toward the right positions to apply to based on your education, skills, and experiences.
  • How long is the process to complete my career marketing documents?
    The process begins after the scheduled 1 hour to 1 hour and half consultation. The process takes 3-5 business days after the consultation. If you need the resume sooner, we offer "Rush Resume Service" in which the process takes 1-2 business days after consultation for each document with an additional fee.
  • Do you mail out a hard copy of your completed career marketing documents?
    No, all transactions with SRC are paper-free. You will receive your custom resume and template cover letter in a Word Document Format via email. The subject line of the email will say "SRC - Your Resume is Ready!" That way you can make your own edits and print your resume to your desired state.
  • What if I want to update my resume with new skills and experience?
    One update to your resume, called SRC update, is included in our Confidence and Career & Beyond packages! Outside of these packages, just select FREE Discovery Call on the Contact Us form and we will contact you to understand what services you require.
  • What is the best way to contact SRC?
