WHAT IS THE RETURN ON INVESTMENT OF A TOP-NOTCH RESUME?

IF YOU ARE UNEMPLOYED

How much income are you losing every day that you are unemployed? Divide your annual salary by 52 weeks and divide that by 5 days per week.

Client A's Former Salary = $100,000 Annually, Divided by 52 = $1923/Week in Lost Wages

RESULT:  This client invested $1500 in her resume, which will pay for itself if it shortens her job search by just four days.

IF YOU ARE EMPLOYED AND WANT TO MOVE UP

Client B was an IT Director making $178,000, and wanted to increase his salary by 10%. A recruiter contacted him, but the competition was tough. He invested $1900 in a top-notch resume and was hired at $202,800 annually -- a 14% increase. How long did it take for the resume to pay for itself?

The annual $24,800 raise = an additional $477 per week in increased salary.

RESULT:  This candidate's resume paid for itself in four weeks in the new position.
