FAQs – Tammy Shoup, Executive
Director and Head Writer
What are your qualifications to write my resume?
T.K. Shoup, Executive Director and Head Writer is among a small number
of professional resume writers in the country who has earned the title
of Certified Professional Résumé Writer from the Professional
Association of Résumé Writers. Shoup is also a member of the National
Résumé Writers' Association. Membership and activity in both
organizations ensures that Breakthrough Resumes has up-to-date
knowledge of current industry and employment trends and also serves as
just one example of the company's dedication to continuing education
in the employment industry.
How does the process begin?
This simple and painless process begins via a consultation that lets
you know which type of service would work best for you via a free
review of your existing document. If you don't have a resume, you will
complete a comprehensive Resume Development Worksheet. Either way, I
go beyond gathering facts and figures and infuse your new document
with your personality and energy!
How long does the writing process take?
The process usually takes 72 business hours but can take much longer
if you do not respond quickly to my emails. Almost all projects are
completed within three days.
Need your resume sooner? I also offer a Rush service for those clients
who have unexpected opportunities to present their credentials to
hiring authorities. In just 12 business hours, you could have your new
resume in hand and begin posting on job boards. Call or email for more
information regarding this service.
How will I receive my resume?
You will receive your resume as an e-mail attachment in Windows MS
Word and a complimentary ASCII text version of your resume for use in
applying for jobs over the Internet. (Many firms charge an additional
$50 or more for this service.)
What is an ASCII text resume?
ASCII resumes have all of the formatting removed from them so that
they can be pasted into resume databanks and email messages without
becoming a jumbled mess of disorganized text and symbols.
May I receive my documents by regular mail?
Upon request, I will send 1 original on plain white paper and 5 copies
on White 24lb stationery.
What do you do with the personal information I give to you?
I do not sell or give any of your personal information to outside
organizations or third parties. All work papers used while preparing
your documents are shredded and the electronic files are stored for 6
months and then deleted.
How is payment made?
Payment is normally made by
Visa or MasterCard via an online, secure server. I use the leading
provider in secure, online payments Paypal.com (used by companies such
as Dell, PetSmart, Starbucks, iTunes) and I will send you a work order
agreement my email. It's free to you and you can be sure that your
information is safe when paying directly using any credit card.
(Because of the time invested in interviewing and writing your resume,
we require payment in advance of starting work.)
What if I have other questions?
Please by email at AWORDPRO@AOL.COM
with any other questions you may have.
I look forward to working with you as you begin your new journey!
