RESUME, COVER LETTER & PERSONAL STATEMENT WRITING ON LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK

Consult with Professor Peterson to make your resume and professional writing stand out. A-1 Resumes in Oyster Bay, New York, offers resume, cover letter, and personal statement writing services.

Most individuals in today's workplace require a well-written, concise, and attractive 1-page resume that will make the cut. The average length of time spent initially evaluating a submitted resume is approximately 10 seconds. In a pile of 100 to 500 other resumes, yours will be set aside if it is:

COVER LETTERS

Whether you are searching for a job in person or on the internet, your cover letter is an important document. Professor Peterson writes cover letters of 4 to 5 paragraphs that are either geared toward a specific career goal or phrased in general terms to keep the client's options open. In other cases, you might need to change only the first sentence to customize the letter for the job. When someone is seeking two different types of jobs, two cover letters may be needed. In that case, the second letter is half-price.

PERSONAL STATEMENTS

Professor Peterson has assisted people with writing personal statements for graduate and professional schools for more than 20 years. Her experience as a college professor gives you the edge. She knows what the executives at these schools want to hear, or more importantly, what they DON'T want to hear.

The consultation for personal statements includes an initial planning session based on Professor Peterson's own Instruction Guide for Personal Statements. This includes an outline specifying the order of topics, the content of the paragraphs, and the conclusion.

After you complete a rough draft, Professor Peterson edits and corrects your writing to ensure good grammar and proper length (usually 500 words). Your resume is usually encouraged as a part of this project, at a reduced rate.
