Resume Writer Toronto

Partner Directly With Me.  If the owner of the company isn’t writing your resume, then who is? Why choose to entrust the development of the most important documents you’ll ever use to help secure the job of your dreams to a ‘big box’ resume factory who outsource your resume project to anonymous ghost writers or office juniors with little real world experience? When you engage me, I will utilize my hard-won expertise for your resume project. There are many ‘big box’ resume writing services in Toronto, however if you’re looking for high-level expertise and the personal touch, we could be a good match.

Best-In-Class Certification. I am Canada’s first Certified Master Resume Writer (CMRW) and hold the Certified Executive Resume Master (CERM) credential from Career Directors International. I am also the first resume writer in Canada invited to join the prestigious Forbes Coaches Council.

Executive Recruiter & Recruitment Consultant. I have extensive experience in the staffing agency world where I led search assignments for major Fortune 500 companies on in Canada and across Europe. Some of the companies I recruited for include Shell, Chevron, Encana Corporation, Teck, Fluor, IBM, Motorola, HSBC, Deutsche Bank, British Red Cross, and many more.

This expertise in countless real world recruiting environments gave me unrivaled insight into the criteria, methods, process, and expectations utilized by these major employers and what they look for in a job applicant.  I know what you’re doing wrong with your resume.  I can help you fix it and provide the best platform possible to move forward.

Toronto Resume Writing Services

I'm Ken, an experienced executive recruiter, former staffing agency owner, and award-winning, multi-certified resume writer with 20+ years of experience.

Canada’s First Certified Master Resume Writer (CMRW) & International Acclaim. I am the first resume writer in Canada to have attained the levels of excellence needed to be awarded the most prestigious credential in the worldwide resume writing industry – Certified Master Resume Writer. I have also won multiple resume writing awards from Career Directors International in the ‘Best Executive Resume’ category. If you’re looking for resume services in Toronto, read on to find out more. Or view my resume samples here.

The Best & Brightest. My resume writing services have been sought out by highly talented professionals in Toronto, throughout Canada, and indeed across North America. I have written hard-hitting, impactful resumes for a former member of a Canadian Prime Minister’s innermost circle, White House & Pentagon executives, CEOs of public companies, high-flying entrepreneurs, senior military figures, and professionals at all levels.

Value. My pricing structure is highly competitive.  I know of no other writer in the Toronto resume writing marketplace who offers the blend of recruiting expertise, business experience, and resume writing credentials and awards at this price point. 

I don’t ask you to pay extra for a bloated corporate structure, swanky downtown offices, or commission mark-up before outsourcing resume projects to an anonymous ‘team’ of writers. You deal with me 100% from start-to-finish and there are no hidden fees at any stage of the process.

Media Contributor & Industry Expert. I have featured in radio/print media including CBC and Forbes.com, and my resume samples were hand-picked by the President of CDI for inclusion in the 7th & 8th Editions of ‘Resumes for Dummies’. 

In Summary. If you are looking for professional resume writing services in the Toronto marketplace, partner with me and take advantage of my extensive recruitment consulting, executive recruiting, and resume writing background to give your resume the professional edge it deserves. Find out more here.

Choose Wisely. What matters most to you at this point?  Getting it done cheap, or getting it done right? Yes, there are cheaper options and yes, I can only take on a certain number of clients per month.  If cheap, quick, and readily available is what you need, there are plenty of people ready to send your project overseas, hand it to a ‘trainee’, or someone with no certifications or understanding of the recruiting world and best ways to market a skill set.  If you can see the value in what I bring to your project, I’d like to work with you.
