Master Resume Writer

Earning the Master Resume Writer clearly distinguishes the resume writer as the “best of the best” in the resume-writing industry.

Meg Guiseppi earned the credential in 2008 — New Jersey’s first Master Resume Writer and the 9th career professional worldwide to have earned this top honor. She is one of only a handful of Master Resume Writers to also hold the Reach Certified Personal Branding Strategist and Reach Certified Online Identity Strategist credentials – also gold standards.

Awarded by the Career Management Alliance, the Master Resume Writer certification is designed specifically for highly experienced, well-qualified resume professionals who combine expert writing skills with a strategic approach to resume development and top-flight English language skills.

Requirements for the credential include:

5 years professional resume writing experience.
Resume writing credential from another recognized professional association.
Submission and approval of an extensive resume and cover letter portfolio of 5 diverse client presentations.
Successful completion of Career Management Alliance’s 30-page Business Writing Program and Exam.

Master Resume Writers must renew the credential every two years with the submission of 5 full client presentations and a 2-page essay detailing the new information, strategies, tips and techniques the practitioner has learned over the previous two years.

Executive resumes have changed dramatically in just the past few years, in response to the constantly changing needs of recruiters and hiring decision makers, and the impact of the Internet.

These days more and more decision makers are reviewing resumes on their PDAs. To accommodate their needs, resumes need to immediately and concisely communicate the candidate’s brand and value proposition, and what differentiates them from their competition.
