Professional Resume Plus, LLC’s system creates extremely customized resumes and cover letters – optimizing each candidates precise qualifications for whatever specific job they are applying for. It uses a type of digital marketing and search engine optimization (SEO) method to produce resumes and letters which get our clients to the very top of the software screening systems, which eliminate half or more of the applicant. The system then adds in a critical additional element – researching, identifying and making contact directly with the hiring managers. These two core ideas have created a complete sea change in job search for our clients. We typically have two or more clients every month who get a new career job on the first or second resume/letter combination they send out.
John loves this work, and is grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with and advocate for our clients. He lives in the New Haven area with his wife Jane and their cat Tiger Paws. To contact him:
