Services For Professionals

RÉSUMÉ WRITING

Do you need advanced résumé solutions as an experienced, senior professional or executive? Is it hard for you to articulate your achievements and do you need your documents written according to the latest international standards? No one will be as excited as I am to hear your career story starting from school. I will coach on résumé writing with the supporting documents that best represent you from scratch.

Effective résumé writing is unique to you and your value proposition, and should be tailored to specific country standards, the targeted job, and the right keywords. It should also have a professional layout and design that is easily parsed by Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) when applying online. This may also include a cover letter and LinkedIn profile makeover to create a complete portfolio.

What do you get in résumé writing?

The opportunity to reflect on your career from the beginning and uncover the true reasons you are seeking something else. Answer various questions to highlight relevant achievements and create an industry-appropriate modern or traditional résumé from scratch, a fully developed LinkedIn profile and content creation recommendations. The program includes a résumé strategy session to teach you how to update all your documents after landing a job and re-target them for the next opportunity. The process takes around 40 hours.

Options (Currently not available)

Résumé or Complete LinkedIn Profile only written by me: USD 1,275
Résumé + Complete LinkedIn Profile written by me + free strategy session: USD 1,475
Add a Cover Letter written by me to any of the above: USD 215
One guided single session where I answer your questions and you write your documents: USD 315

JOB SEARCH STRATEGY

Image of a glob and a magnifier glass icon

You decided to look for a new position. Well done! But what’s the most efficient way to start? Today, employers expect job seekers to express their interest personally, as you are competing with thousands of other candidates for the same vacancy. Learning how to search for employment and network socially are skills you can acquire. My structured strategies will allow you to know which paths to engage in.

Job searching, whether you are currently employed or unemployed, can be challenging and stressful in today’s economy. While there is a lot of information online, it’s helpful to have a plan that fits your lifestyle and addresses the challenges you may face. My goal is to help you find a job quickly, considering the specifics of the country you are targeting. I will help you focus your efforts efficiently, empower you to make informed decisions, and pinpoint your next move!

What do you get in job search strategy?

The chance to learn the ins and outs of modern job search, including where to start, how to apply online, networking online and offline, informational interviews, a push and pull strategy, using LinkedIn for your search (confidential or not), understanding the “hidden job market,” positioning yourself, remaining consistent, and overcoming grief. The delivery is via a 2 hour online course, which includes communication templates and resources, or my book “Find a job anytime, anywhere: The Senior Professional’s Guide to Job Search”.

INTERVIEW PREPARATION

The employer invited you to an interview. Great! Now what? Preparing for a job interview and overcoming anxiety can be challenging. There is a big difference between what you think you’ll say and what you end up saying. I will help you craft a strategic plan to get positive results at every step of the process. As a senior recruiter who screens and invites shortlisted candidates for interviews, I can show you what to expect and how to effectively convey your value.

Learn how to present yourself professionally and follow best practices before, during, and after the interview. Together, we will clarify your value proposition and target to make a positive impact from the start. We will develop the conversational skills needed to differentiate yourself from other candidates and answer various types of questions. I will guide you through the different types of interviews and prepare you to nail them!

What do you get in interview preparation?

The occasion to discover Recruiters’ and Hiring Managers’ expectations, prepare before, during, and after the interview, role-play the actual interview to practice telling pertinent and relevant stories and gain confidence, present yourself with a competitive edge, answer common and difficult questions, and research how to negotiate an offer. The sessions include useful communication templates and resources to help assess and improve yourself. They are conducted one-on-one virtually.

Options (Currently not available)

One practice session: USD 315
Two practice sessions: USD 615

L.A. – Corporate Finance Manager Canada

I can’t thank Rita enough for all her support during my job search process. She has provided essential advice and guidance that will continue to serve me throughout my career. I went on a steep learning curve for upgrading my resume and cover letter, applying for jobs, networking, and communicating with employers. Her practical approach allowed me to apply the steps in a systematic way and facilitated my job search. Rita goes beyond her way and she is always available to answer questions and give tips. Team Rita rocks!

M.A. – Medical Doctor USA

Working with Rita was a smooth and professional experience, since day one she had the patience required to dissect and explain the process of drafting a CV and establishing a timeline for the project. Even though the process was a two parties one, Rita’s added value to the whole product exceeded my expectations. She was always patient and one email away, sometimes on her PTO! Her attention to detail is uncanny, and the way she manages to make your transferable skills sound fit for a job are impressive. She delivered the work in a timely manner. I first reached out to Rita based on people’s feedback, I now understand their testimonials!

N.F. – Software Developer Lebanon

Working with Rita made me answer questions I had buried deep thinking I could never answer. It helped me find the courage and confidence I needed in order to succeed, which I did, in a very short amount of time because of our continuous improvement and practice. It opened up my eyes to endless opportunities, and it transformed me into a whole different person. A bolder, more self-assured person.

B.M. – Technical Services Director Canada

I am ecstatic about the results; I strongly recommend Rita Kamel’s professional resume writing services. Rita took me on a journey to update and revamp my resume and interview preparation “do’s & don’ts”. Her expertise, coupled with her collaborative and innovative spirit, made her the go-to expert in this area. From my first e-mail interaction with Rita, you can tell that her engagement is very professional, and the review process is both elaborate and well-structured. She made me go over my experience from the start and extract my achievements, which reflect and align with the new target position.

J.A. – General Manager UAE

Having been in full-time employment since leaving University and deciding to take some time out from work, I realized my old CV would require serious updating before making the return to work life. After making several enquiries Rita came highly recommended by an acquaintance to assist me with updating my CV. Rita has proven herself to be an extremely experienced professional and responsive person with great attention to detail. Her proactive and honest, yet friendly approach has made it a pleasure working to update my CV and LinkedIn profile. I now feel much more confident: my redesigned CV is tailored toward gaining a suitable position in a competitive industry.

Rita managed to teach me a lifelong skill about how to interview and level up when it comes to my career aspirations. Especially in how to answer the most common yet stress inducing question "Tell me about yourself?".

What's special is I felt I am talking to someone who really wants me to succeed!

She guided me through a set of actions in a very scientific manner, fine-tuned my strategies and not only made them unique, but uniquely relevant. Not to mention the grade of encouragement she had conveyed to deliver my presentation and get selected for the role.

I would highly recommend Rita for any type of guidance, consultation and career advice.
