Great Resumes Fast Avis 

"Great Resumes Fast" was unwilling to discuss my requirements for my executive resume update. In any business, to provide exceptional services, especially those unique to the individual you are writing about, there needs to be a willingness to understand your client's requirements and uniqueness. Jessica (owner/president), Kelly (customer service manager), and the assigned writer, who was a contractor, had no interest in having that conversation concerning what I wanted to see in the update to the resume they created for me back in 2017 which cost over $1,300. For the update, they wanted $995. They seemed only concerned about getting you to sign up for a package and pay. After I paid and tried to seek clarification, raised my concern about the lack of collaboration or attention to what I was looking to get out of the service, and requested a call, Jessica declined to have a call to discuss my project and instead refunded my $995. What I experienced as a client contradicts how Jessica presents herself and her business on social media. I thought she would have the courtesy to discuss my project. Very disheartening. The good news is that many excellent executive writing services exist that genuinely care about their clients. AI services are more effective and do a better job listening to my specific, unique requirements than "Great Resumes Fast," they produce a more effective deliverable and outcome for much less money (some are free). Unfortunately, "Great Resumes Fast" is not one of them, especially if you want a great, unique, standout resume.

Recently I engaged this company for a LinkedIn profile and Resume refresh. Service cost was ~$1k. It started off generally ok with an intro to an experienced writer, and me providing an overview of my experiences. I had a previous resume from a different service years ago.

The first draft came later than promised, and when it arrived it the change from my original resume was probably 10% different. There were some interesting wording changes, but also inaccuracies from what we had talked about. The LI profile draft was also ~70% copy from the resume (and those two should be different).

I provided feedback and comments on the documents. The writer did not prefer a live discussion. I made clear that I would ultimately accept suggestions, but did want to understand the strategy and reason behind changes (or non-changes).

A day later I received a notice, that they decided to not continue the engagement and promised a refund. I had not asked for it, and only had questions on the docs.

The two people I did speak with over this rather short event, honestly were nice. Though I did get the sense they were time-strapped. Perhaps too much work on their plate.

I suppose asking questions made me too much of a hassle, but I would have expected that level of engagement for a $1k package.

I shared my new resumes with two mentors and they were so impressed! Excited with my two new resumes, LinkedIn and cover letters...Kristin listened to me and really developed resumes that fit my needs! I would recommend this group and will come back again when I need a refresh!

What makes Great Resumes Fast stand out is the amount of time they take to get to know the customer. They don't just take your information from a questionnaire, talk to you for a few minutes and then create your documents. My experience started off with an initial 25-minute strategy session with Kelly, where she listened to what my needs were and she explained the process and the next steps. Next came a 90-minute conversation with Bethany. During this time, we discussed my current career, my accomplishments, and my career goals. It was a real conversation and I felt Bethany was not only using the time to get the information she needed, but also used it to get a feel of who I am. I have had documents prepared for me by other companies and the results never felt like me. Bethany was so thorough and patient with my questions. She was also very motivating. I could go on but I will stop here. I highly recommend Great Resumes Fast, not only for the quality of the finished products (cover letter, resume, and LinkedIn profile) but also for the exceptional amount of care shown and excellent customer service.

I had a great experience with the LinkedIn Unlocked course. I highly recommend.

Worth every penny and even more! I knew my resume needed help from a professional resume writer, but I didn't know where to begin or how to choose a company. GRF popped into my LinkedIn feed. So, I began reading the articles and materials from the website. The Resume Quiz was quite helpful and spurred me on to think about my career in terms of accomplishments as well as soft skills I possessed, instead of tasks I performed in my various roles. I actually did stuff that mattered! However, rewriting my resume and a cover letter, were still dreaded tasks for me. Finally, I made the decision to call GRF for a consultation and purchase the package that included my resume, LinkedIn profile, and a cover letter. I had the pleasure of working with Jessica Coppens, and she was amazing! I had already prepared for the consultation by reviewing the questions and creating a grid of answers. She was excellent about asking probing questions that pushed me to think more about my accomplishments and skillsets. I tell you, when I received the draft resume--I was so elated, I teared up! The products were amazing, the quality was exceptional. I would definitely work with Jessica and GRF again. She's wonderful!

Worth every penny! Before becoming a client of GRF, I made the decision to shift my career trajectory (horizontal move) but struggled with how to highlight relevant professional experiences from my current role that lend themselves to the horizontal move I'm aiming to make. Jessica Coppens did a fantastic job of pushing me outside of my comfort zone to best showcase the important work I've done. She took the time to better understand my somewhat nuanced situation, asked the right probing questions, and then created an impactful (and very aesthetically pleasing) resume that really positions me as a viable candidate for the type of role I'm seeking. I should also mention, all of this was accomplished in a few short weeks, which included 2 rounds of review/revision. The package I purchased also included a step-by-step guide for updating my LinkedIn profile with key information from the resume, as well as a cover letter that was far more concise and impactful than something I could've written on my own. If I ever choose to make another major career change, I will certainly work with Jessica again to revamp my resume.

Before becoming a client, I had the good fortune to experience first-hand the professionalism and personal service of the Great Resume Fast team, having assisted career enhancement for my wife, daughter, and wife’s son. Still, Jessica Coppens’ communication, expertise, artistry and craftmanship throughout our process far exceeded expectations. Jessica displays the unique skill of capturing and communicating both personal and business skills, and highlights, in a manner I simply describe as artistic. For me, Jessica’s service included expertise that allows me an opportunity, after three decades, to change industries, compiling and sharing my experience and insight to better represent significant value to an organization. Thank you Great Resumes Fast, and Jessica Coppens, for making a difference!

Kristin, Kelly, and Jessica all did a fantastic job and worked well with me to get me what I needed. Transitioning from the military is difficult to translate into every day language and the team at Great Resumes Fast knew what to say to make my skills and experience show in the products they provided.

Caleb was great!! Professional, courteous, personable and he listened to EVERYTHING I said. Can’t say enough about him.

My experience with Great Resumes Fast was amazing! I had the pleasure of working directly with Jessica Coppens. She devoted almost 90 minutes to understand not only my career journey, but my career passions. Through her active listening, she identified key themes from my experiences and shared the first draft within days. I offered a few edits and received an updated version less than 24 hours later!

If you're like me, you might wonder if it's worth the financial investment. I absolutely think it is and have already shared my experience with other colleagues! If you want your resume to stand out, I highly recommend Jessica and the team at Great Resumes Fast!

I had the pleasure of working with Bethany and she did an amazing job putting together my resume. She provided guidance and encouragement to help me on my job search.

I can sum up my entire experience with Great Resumes Fast as AMAZING. Keri Clark was the individual that was assigned to assist me with writing a new resume, redoing my LinkedIn and cover letter. Everything about my experience with her was first class. She is a true professional that was always upbeat and had a smile. I felt like I could not have been assigned anyone better. From our initial conversation to the finished products, she met all of the deadlines and far exceeded all of the expectations that we both set and agreed upon. Keri flat out delivered on her commitment.

I first learned about the services from this company from Jessica Hernandez on Linkedin. I have followed her for years and have the utmost respect for her. She has got her game on and I have always learned something from each of her posts.

I read all of the reviews and my gut told me that Jessica surrounds herself with the highest level of talent. As usual my gut was correct.

If your looking for the services like I was, please give Great Resumes Fast strong consideration. If you choose them, and are lucking enough to get Keri Clark assigned to you, then go out and play the lottery. You will not be disappointed.

Jessica delivered high quality work and was easy to talk to! Highly recommended!

Keri was very easy to work. She quickly grasped my skills and was able to translate them into an extremely professional resume. She was also very helpful in providing direction for getting my resume into the right hands at relevant companies. I would highly recommend her and Great Resumes Fast.

Kristin was fantastic to work with! Very patient, understanding and most important responsive. I was somewhat of a unique client with only having one job in my career and my last resume was from when I left college in 1989. Highly recommend.

There are MANY options out there to get your resume and cover letter writing. Like everything else in life: you get what you pay! I am extremely satisfied with Caleb's work. We had a phone interview that lasted 2 hours and the results of all of his questions are shown in my new resume. Very professional!
Now it is time to start applying for jobs in my new career options.

Caleb did a fabulous job revamping my resume both within content, format, and style. We collaborated with our project in a timely fashion. Excellent to partner with Caleb on this project.

This is the second time I approached Great Resumes Fast, the first one being way back in 2016. And now as I relocated and was ready to start my job hunt, GRF was the company. And luck have it Jessica Coppens was assigned to work on my resume and she was a perfect fit. Simply brilliant and amazing and knew exactly what was needed to get me on track and how to present my skills and make my achievements stand out. I am thrilled with the end result and really enjoyed working with Jessica.
Thank you JC !

Pamela did a great job in carefully listening to my story and to transfer that dialogue into a resume that reflected my "brand".
