Package Description:

This is what my clients hear time and again - in the interview room - that sets them apart. Their resume. Specifically, the detail and clarity in the language on their resumes. If you need a pro to review your resume and provide detailed notes on how you can improve - you've come to the right place! My clients say that I give the best personalized recommendations and notes that they've ever had on a resume. AI can be a great resource - and VMock can help with formatting - but at the end of the day - you're still better off having an expert look over the final product to ask you questions that can draw out additional insight and details to help set you apart. The goal here is to get you to your best version of a working resume. Yes, updates will be needed over time. Think of this as your "greatest hits" for now - rather than a complete history of your experience. With this service you get: - Unlimited Notes via email (asynchronous) for up to 8 weeks - or until project is complete as decided by mutual agreement. My typical response is 24-72 hours. Typically, we do 2-4 sets of notes and revisions back and forth. - 1 hour of coaching. You can either split this into 2 separate 30 minute convos (one at the top and one at the end) OR all at once. It's up to you. We will discuss at time of booking what you prefer. - Additional coaching can be purchased in 30 minute increments for a discounted rate. Note this is only for work on resume. Other documents (cover letter, LinkedIn, etc. are available for a separate fee). I will often work through writing a bullet based on one of your experiences - together - so you get a sense of how to make your bullets shine. YOU are in charge of doing the full re-write based on my guidance, written resume guide and feedback.


What you'll get from this package

Detailed questions and feedback on their resume from the perspective of a former recruiter and experienced coach.

Structured examples of how bullets might be re-written more effectively to convey expertise, knowledge of technical programs, and relevant achievements.

Resume template to be used any time, now or in the future.

A sense of clarity around how to clearly communicate achievements that are most relevant to a potential employer based on target job descriptions - bullets that answer the questions "Why should I hire you?" and "How do I know you're good at this?" even before you get to the interview.

A polished resume suitable for most targeted job applications (note that if you are applying to very different roles, you may need more than one resume - though I never recommend more than 2-3)


Additional details

Coaching delivered via live sessions and .

Majority of notes and engagement will be via email (asynchronous). Voice notes are available for clarification - via text or whatsapp . Please ensure voice memos are less than 5 minutes. Though this package includes "unlimited notes" - I reserve the right to send the document back without additional notes, if mistakes from the prior round are still present/not corrected (or not explained). Notes back and forth should be in depth - not single word or bullet revisions.

Refund Policy

You can expect a response from me within 24-72 hours for all communications. All resume review components must be completed (emails back and forth and phone/zoom call) within 8 weeks. If you have questions in advance - feel free to set up an intro call or shoot me a note. Keep in mind, only one hour of the time described in the approximate range will be delivered live. The rest is an estimate of the time I spend reviewing and writing notes/edits asynchronously. You are paying for a service/experience and an end result, not a timer.

WHY should you hire me as your coach? BLUF (Bottom Line, Up Front). Quick bulleted list and story form both provided below, based on how you learn/read best. The Short List: -Former Recruiter for the Walt Disney Studios and Lucasfilm. I know what it takes to get into rooms and to walk out as the "candidate to beat" in a lineup of interviewees. -10+ Years experience coaching professionally (full-time) for students and experienced professionals, including top business schools like the USC Marshall School of Business (UG, MS, MBA). - Helped clients land roles in: corporate finance, CPG, entertainment (business side, marketing, finance, etc), internal consulting/strategy, supply chain/ops, pharma/medical, tech, automotive, IB and management consulting (undergrad only), brand management and product management, to name a few. - Consistently called out by clients as being the best when it comes to mock interviews (behavioral) and resume notes/edits. - Expert copy writer. - Lived and worked in Los Angeles for 22 years. I survived the Great Recession (2008), multiple SAG and WGA entertainment strikes and almost strikes, changing industries and job functions multiple times, and have landed roles with some of the most competitive companies in the world (Disney, DreamWorks, USC). Story Version: One of the best reviews on my page is from a former MBA student (and Military Vet). He said, "Kira is an incredible career coach and an even better human." This is what matters. Yes - that I am a knowledgeable and experienced coach. But more than that - I care about my clients and their overall well being. Job searching, grad school, transitioning from the Military and career switching are all incredibly stressful - a lot of times, more stressful than I think people anticipate. I love seeing people walk through these challenges and come out the other side, literally transformed. Often achieving more than they themselves thought possible! I have helped first gen, international students, recently separated military vets, and other non-traditional students (or clients) break into new industries and build a career path that they are excited about. When I graduated from undergrad, I graduated off cycle in December, because I kept changing my major and had to take extra classes. I landed my first job as a Production Assistant at DreamWorks Animation by February. In April, at graduation, all my friends were freaking out. Those I'd worked with in production on campus asked how I got my job and if I could teach them how to land jobs like the one I had. In addition to working with friends individually, I referred 5 people to the studio where I worked. Within 12 months, 4 of them were hired and the person who wasn't was an artistic prodigy and now works at Netflix. This has always been something I've loved doing. It just took me a while to realize it was an actual job :). My main goal in any conversation is to help YOU get clear about your next step - and to identify what you need to do in order to reach your short and long term career (and life!) goals. I'm typically a good fit and have a lot of experience working with people who: - Are MBAs recruiting for internships or full-time for all role types (Corporate Finance, Marketing/Brand, non-tech PM, PMM, Leadership Programs, Supply Chain/Ops, Business Intelligence, Sales, Startups) outside of IB and Management Consulting. I have experience working with clients and students in IB and Consulting - but there are a lot of folks on the platform who have more hands on experience here. I will say - I do a mean behavioral interview - and have had folks with a bent towards IB and Consulting remark that they have benefitted from my approach to the behavioral portion of the interview process, while working with other coaches on the technical/case portion. - Are making a significant career pivot (to a different job function, industry, or both - or out of Military service). - Are neurodiverse (ADHD, etc) and need help with productivity hacks and finding work streams that work for them. - Are students at any level (undergrad to graduate) and searching for an internship or full-time job - Are early/mid career professionals looking for a new career direction and need some help shaping and managing their career search/exploration process. - Are international students struggling with networking best practices in the US and understanding the basics of H1B and STEM OPT. I have worked with programs where 70-90% of the students were from outside the US. That said, I am not an immigration professional and cannot provide legal advice. - Are interested in careers in the entertainment space (film, TV, streaming, etc.) OR who are wanting to transition out of entertainment into a more "traditional" corporate role. Networking can be tricky for everyone! My top asynchronous recommendation? A play-by-play handbook "The 20 Minute Networking Meeting".
