Greetings Katie,
What a great team you have! Meeting with Celia was a real pleasure. Re-doing my resume and cover letter with the right wording made such a difference. I now look better on my resume than i thought! I was impressed that it only took 2 days from consultation to completion. Now I'm ready to go and get the job i want with confidence!
Thanks again,

Dear Katie and Fiona
I want to thank you for the excellent service and CV I received from you both this week.
During the past week I have been extremely busy and was quite anxious as to how I was going to complete my CV on time in order to apply for the new role, however, your wonderful team created my CV sooner than I had anticipated.
I want to compliment Fiona; she went to great lengths to update my achievements and CV by adding the right wording. It sounds easier than it looks. I can assure you I have tried writing the CV myself and honestly believe that I would have spent countless hours and still would not have ended up with the same result. I have always received quality service by Katie and now I can expect the same from your team. Fiona your work is a prime example of this. Your reputation for good service has preceded you. I will recommend Katie Roberts Career Consulting to all my friends. Once again thank you.
Yours sincerely
T Cacaj

Hi Helene
With your help in drafting my resume and cover letter, I have successfully been offered a job as a Graduate Accountant in a CPA firm. I am so excited about it! Thank you so much for your help. Kind regards,
Terrenz
Hi Katie,
I am writing to inform you how impressed I am with both yours and Rebecca's professional service. My resume was drafted, given structure and finalised within a week, which was absolutely phenomenal. The quality of the resume speaks for itself with the following tangible results. I have applied for one of six highly sort after jobs in a federal government agency. They had well over 100 applicants apply. As a result of the resume that Rebecca put together I was short listed to one of 15 applicants with myself and one other applicant being the only outsiders to get an interview. I directly credit your professional resume service with putting myself before the interview panel.
Kind regards,
Andrew Scott
Hi Helene,
This resume is fantastic. I've never sounded so good! Having this resume behind me will increase my interview confidence dramatically. A cover letter would be greatly appreciated in addition to this wonderful resume. This is fantastic work on your part, both in your creative ability and collaborative communication. I hope we can continue to work together on building future resumes. So many times I have sat down to achieve what you have, but have failed to do so. Thanks again Helene for great work!
David
Hi Belinda
I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the amazing job you have done on my CV and Selection Criteria. Your prompt and friendly service was much appreciated. I still can't believe how fabulous you made me sound - you have a real talent at massaging information! I would definitely recommend your services to others and I already know that this has been a worthwhile investment. Many thanks and warm regards,
Angela
To whom it may concern;
I'm just writing a quick email to complement Ellen Rodger on her service. I undertook a full career counselling consultation as well as her professional resume service and was very impressed by both. Being young and in a critical time in my life in terms of career choice, Ellen helped bring more clarity. She conducted herself in a very professional manner and my newly revised resume couldn't have been worded any better! Considering I am a perfectionist and quite critical most of the time I think that Ellen is a valuable asset to your company. Many thanks,
John
Hi Helene
It was a wonderful experience for me to have you work on my resume and cover letter. I found the work very professional and the approach sharp and sweet. I am happy to recommend you to my friends. Thank you very much for the hard work.
M Batra
Hi Jane,
I just wanted to let you know that I was successful in securing a graduate position with the Department of X, which you did my new resume and selection criteria for. I also used my resume and selection criteria for 2 other graduate positions and was offered a position with both of them as well. I'm certain that without your excellent work on my resume and selection criteria, I would not have even reached the interview stage. Thank you for your excellent work.
Zoe, Melbourne
Hi Helene
Nicole is doing really well. Thanks to your resume she got a job straight away and has been there now for 12 months and she's just had a promotion!
Cheers,
Diana
Hi Fiona
After many months and two interviews, I start my new position in 2 weeks. I want to thank you for the excellent job you did on my resume and selection criteria. I could not have found the time to tackle the selection criteria and there is simply no way I could have produced a resume of that quality and presentation. It was sensational! Please let Katie Roberts know how genuinely impressed I am by the service you provided. Thanks again,
Lee
Fiona,
Thank you for your help with my cover letter and CV. I have been successful. It was interesting that the HR Director walked into the meeting with my cover letter and CV and had all the key words circled. It was exactly what she was looking for. Thank you so much.
Phil
Hi Katie
I want to thank you for your resume service and consultation provided by Kylie Micallef. Having a second pair of eyes review my resume made all the difference and challenged the potentially skewed perception I had of my own selling points and key messages, sometimes it’s hard to detach. Kylie was very accessible and I appreciated her advice, timely responses and professionalism. I’ll be recommending Katie Roberts Career Consulting to my friends/colleagues. Best wishes and thank you again.
Ben, Sydney
Hi Catherine
Thank you so much for your help in writing up my resume and statement of claim. Without it, I may not have even got past the first stage. That was key in getting me shortlisted for the next stage of their selection process. So more than a month later after applications have closed...I have the job! Thank you again!

Catherine
Thank you very much for all your hard work - I have a fantastic application thanks to you!! I was amazed at how quickly you were able to collate all my information and put it together in a well detailed application and CV which are first rate and definitely professional in looks and readability. Thank you so much for your help – well worth the money spent and I just received notification that I got the job - wahoo!! Thanks again for a great cv and application.
Karen
Catherine
Many thanks for doing such a great job! It has boosted my outlook and confidence! I'm very happy with my documents and I will definitely be recommending you to my friends! I am sure you will hear from me again. Many thanks once again.
Lena
Thanks a ton Catherine, much appreciated. Talk about transformations!! That looks awesome!!.....Thanks for being my voice on paper Catherine, you've beautifully captured the gist of what I want to convey. I would have been totally lost without you. I now feel much more confident while applying, all thanks to you. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Chery
Catherine
What a wonderful job you have done!! I’m really thrilled!! Your CV and cover letter has increased my self-confidence 100-fold…thank you so much for your excellent work. You have done an amazing job!!
Martina
Wow that is fantastic Catherine! I cannot thank you enough for the work you have put in for me! After seeing the cover letter it was pretty obvious a new resume had to accompany that. And to do it in the short time that it took was too much to ask... It’s magic Catherine!
Matthew
Hi Catherine,
I have to say I nearly cried when I read the first draft of your document this morning - hardly any edits/changes required. You have seriously helped me to complete something I would have struggled with this week given my workload and commitments at the moment. You really do have a wonderful wordsmithing talent - much appreciated.
Thanks again for your help,
SN
Hi Catherine,
I wanted to let you know that I accepted an offer yesterday with Company X in St Leonards. I'm very excited! It all feels a little surreal after 2 months of no interest at all from anyone. The day I sent recruiters the CV you wrote for me, I got my first interview with a company with great culture and work/life balance which is exactly what I was looking for. I also wanted to let you know that the people there were very impressed with the CV, as was one of the recruiters I'm registered with who said it's one of the best she's seen and asked who had written it for me as they often get queries about professional writers from candidates. Thank you again Catherine.
Kind regards, Sophie
Hi Kylie
