Testimonials
my phone interview went well
“I believe that my phone interview on Wednesday went well. The attorneys asked a lot of substantive questions which I felt very prepared for after the résumé writing session. I will let you know if this job ends up working out but either way I am very excited for my new résumé.”

The résumé, upon first use, got me an interview!
“The résumé, upon first use, got me an interview! Shauna kind of gave it to me straight and made me face myself and then tore my résumé up, but the end product was fantastic. I would certainly like her help with cover letter and interview advice. She is incredible.”
- Junior attorney seeking law firm associate roles
Yay me!
“I feel like I was hitting a wall with this résumé. I had it professionally done before, but it just didn’t work for me and I didn’t like the style. I think I look great now. Yay me! This session has been so great. Just to be able to be talk through my work has given me a lot of confidence.”
- Award-winning legal reporter
I went to another résumé writing service...
“I went to another résumé writing service. That résumé writer didn’t know anything about law so it was hard to talk to her and I ended up a résumé with too much going and it’s not conveying real meaning. I tried to fix it, but I didn’t know how. Now my résumé flows much better and it shows my progression. It’s so much better than I was able to do.”

super helpful
“I’ve had interviews with three companies since the résumé rewrite. Your points on interviewing are super helpful and your key themes resonated well and helped me identify my value in the interview.”
- Senior corporate counsel in Fortune 5 multinational
a much-needed change
“This was a much-needed change from being law school-focused to being a lawyer. I’ve been hesitant about how to make the change. This has been extremely helpful. I haven’t been able to talk to other people the way I talk to you.”
- Second-year associate
Within 24 hours, the first firm I sent it to contacted me for an interview.
“When I looked at the new résumé, I was like of course it should have metrics and of course it shouldn’t have fluff. My sister in BigLaw loved the résumé too and said it really popped. She told me ‘If that doesn’t get you a job, then nothing will!’ I’m extremely excited about it—and how fast I got results. Within 24 hours, the first firm I sent it to contacted me for an interview.”
