One of only a few professionals worldwide to achieve the coveted “Certified Master Resume Writer” distinction, Erin Kennedy is the founder and President of Professional Resume Services, Inc. Beyond multiple certifications, Kennedy is a nationally published author and key contributor to 16 best-selling career books.

Kennedy has assembled a team of expert writers who seem intent on overtaking her in industry recognition. Last year alone, 7 members of Kennedy's writing team were nominated for the prestigious TORI Award (see sidebar, right), the first company ever to have this many writers nominated for such an award.

BTW, 3 writers received the award, the other 4 were runners up.

What I Liked (the Pros)

What I Didn't Like (the Cons)

Don't expect a rush service here. A first draft will generally be ready within 1 to 2 weeks of your telephone consultation with your writer.

Note: This is less a criticism of the company and more of a heads-up for prospective clients. If you need a resume yesterday, you'll need to look elsewhere.

Review Summary and Recommendation

It says something when a company president "owns" her profession to the extent of achieving international recognition. But it's even more important--at least for her clients--that she assumes such an active role in the company (e.g., your initial consultation is with Erin Kennedy herself). 

If all you need is a standard resume, leave it to somebody else. Kennedy promises more, and brings her considerable personal talents and all of her company's resources to bear in developing a cutting-edge, value-branded marketing campaign that delivers opportunities for executives and senior management.

I have no trouble recommending...
