What does a premium engineering resume writing service need to have?

The BARE MINIMUM a resume needs to get past the application tracking software that companies use for job postings need to:

• Be clear and concise
• Display quantitative results and accomplishments
• Implement keywords from the job description

Does your resume cover the above?

If so, you’re in good shape and you’ll likely be seeing a few hits. A good hit rate is 1~3 inquiries from recruiters regarding your resume per week.

If your resume doesn’t cover the above points, then you’re likely getting no hits. And that is why you are here.

Resumes

Be clear and concise

Just like your lab reports in engineering school, your resumes should also be clear and concise. If your lab reports or even emails aren’t clear or concise, the message you are trying to send will fly over their heads. No one will want to read material from you. It’s very powerful to communicate in a clear and concise manner. Less is more. You don’t need a long blabbermouth story, just keep it straight and to the point.

Display quantitative results and accomplishments

Quantitative results and accomplishments will give the recruiter or hiring manager a “feel” for the impact that you’ve made. They will know that you are not just clocking in and out. They will know that the work you are doing is driving improvement and generating revenue. Common metrics (or KPIs) that everyone needs to include are:

• Generating revenue
• Improvement in efficiency
• Reduction in cost
• Reduction in lead time

Implement Keywords

Job applications utilize an applicant tracking system software (ATS) and you will need to make sure that your resumes are ATS compliant. What does ATS compliant mean? ATS Compliance means that your resume meets the formatting requirements so that it can get parsed through the system. This will be a game changer. When you apply for jobs and attach your resume, the parameters such as former employers and education will automatically populate, provided your resume is ATS compliant.

Sample Format of A Premium Engineering Resume

Check out my format below, as it is simple and to the point.

In addition to resumes, I also provide premium services for cover letters and linkedin optimization.

Cover Letters

Although I personally don’t think they’re required, cover letters are great in supplementing your resume for your job application. In some rare case, you may have a recruiter that makes decisions based on the quality of your cover letter. You never really know what happens behind the scenes, but if you want to be prepared, have a good cover letter.

Cover letters should detail how your skills and experiences prove your competence and ability to provide value to the company. They should not list why you want the job or about core competencies. Instead of mentioning soft skills, mention your hard skills and projects. There is a recurring theme here between mentioning your hard skills/projects & quantitative results (see above). The overlap between the two, is again, they make your skills and achievements tangible.

Anyone can say they can “work in a fast paced environment” or “have the ability to pick things up quickly”, but when you utilize STAR answers through your experiences, that is the ultimate differentiation.

See a cover letter below from one of my previous clients:

Linkedin Optimization

What good is having a Linkedin if recruiters don’t contact you for jobs? I get hits on my Linkedin all the time for potential job offers.

If you aren’t constantly getting hit up by recruiters about job opportunities, you aren’t doing it right. You need to optimize your Linkedin, and to do so, you need to implement key words. Recruiters need to be able to search you up when they type your job description.

I offer premium engineering resume rewrites, cover letters, and Linkedin optimization.
