“Working with Deirdre was an absolute pleasure! She took the time to get to know me, asking thorough follow-up questions to have a strong grasp on my experience and impact. She was able to articulate things I was unable to do in a concise, comprehensive and impressive manor! She carefully edits and intakes feedback which left me with a beautifully updated Resume and cover letter. It felt as if I brought my 99' Honda civic in for a tune up and left with a super car! Thank you Deirdre!”

Your process was seamless and also insightful; I quickly learned I was not marketing my skills and successes as I should have been. Thank you for your amazing work and for helping me achieve the results/ career goals that I was striving for. I cannot thank you enough and I highly recommend you and your services. Thank you again!”

“I engaged Deirdre to assist in reconstructing my resume which was a challenge due to my dual expertise in corporate finance and medical device research. The end-result was not only a remarkably professional career document but also a highly effective one; I landed a desired position as a CFO. Deirdre, walked me through her skilled strategy, discussing my career objectives and professional accomplishments with in-depth and introspective questions. She was detailed and methodical and clearly has astute insight into what makes a powerful resume. My resume now reads like an accomplished career story, it is eye-catching, effectively highlights my skills, and the distinguishing qualities I bring to the table. She packed a lot into 2 pages! My only regret is that I did not realize the value of hiring a professional resume writer sooner, I highly recommend her resume services.”

Raghuram S.
“It had been nearly a decade since my last job search and I had a lot of anxiety, but I knew it was time for a change. Deirdre was instrumental in helping me shake the dust off my antiquated résumé—she helped me focus on translatable skills and brought me up to speed on ever-evolving HR practices. She gave me the insight and the confidence I needed to get back out there, and within weeks, I had booked an interview. Without Deirdre, I would still be sitting on the fence, too intimidated to give it a try.”
Christopher H.
“I was very impressed with the completed resume and profile. Deirdre was able to tell my career journey story in a way that I could not. My resume looks professional and polished -- which is what I needed for the positions I was seeking. Deirdre was a joy to work with. I interviewed several resume writers before choosing Composed Career (this was a real investment for me), and I am glad I did so. I was thrilled to secure an excellent position in my target field. I highly recommend Deirdre's career services.”

She is so tuned in to the key areas and well versed in the algorithms that recruiters and senior executives look to when hiring. She will create a profile and resume that is absolutely guaranteed to get you noticed and in the door. Her style is approachable and adaptable and sometimes i thought she could read my mind and communicate strengths i had not defined. If you are as good at your job as Deirdre is you'll get hired.”
David H.
“Deirdre takes the time to get to know her clients, does her research on the types of jobs each client is trying to attract, and then carefully crafts a resume that will get her clients noticed by hiring managers. There is truly an art to how she works with a resume to finesse the language and format so that it can get attention in today's online application process. With all the competition for good jobs these days, a well-crafted resume has never been more important. I've worked in marketing for years and couldn't market myself this well! Many thanks, Deirdre!”
Melissa C.
“Deirdre is OUTSTANDING at what she does! She was so kind, thorough, professional and efficient. When I received my resume I couldn’t believe the person I was reading about was me! She does a wonderful job of taking all of the little (but important) details that go into a job and making them stand out in a way that makes potential employers really see you. I cannot recommend her services enough!”
Cali C.
“I have been working with Deirdre to rework my resume and she has been PHENOMENAL! She is thorough and detail-oriented and just awesome to work with. The finished product is an incredible improvement over my "homemade" resume. She has been able to take a lot of information and make it look professional, streamlined and attractive. I cannot recommend her more! It was a pleasure to work with her!”
Alison M.
“I have worked with several "resume services and writers," and no one has come close to the skill and care that Deirdre provides. Our grown children moved south, and we wanted to be closer to them, so I decided to start a job search. After being at an organization for over 25 years, I was "rusty" at putting my years of experience together, and Deirdre masterfully helped me through the process. Landed a job in a new state and couldn't be happier.
If you are looking for the best ... go with Deirdre!”
Tom J.

I highly recommend anyone looking for a full resume rewrite or a simple refresher to utilize Deirdre’s services!”
Alex J.
“My overall impression when I received my resume was amazement! My resume was wonderful, and I am so excited to start sending it out. I needed my resume on such short notice, and Composed Career came through for me in such a hectic time in my life. I had just lost my job and wanted to start applying right away. Deirdre was a blessing to work with, I would recommend her to anyone!“

“Composed Career (Deirdre) provided such wonderful tools that transformed my job search. I have had so much more activity with recruiters reaching out to me via LinkedIn, as well as scoring interviews when applying for jobs.

“Deirdre did a fantastic job recreating my resume as well as updating/improving my LinkedIn profile. She is wonderful to work with, very responsive and thorough. After receiving the draft of my resume, I couldn’t believe it was me I was reading about.

“I had the pleasure of working with Deirdre when she reworked my resume a few months ago. She is fantastic! From start to finish, Deirdre was responsive, communicative, and insightful. My resume now reads like a wonderful highlight reel versus the typical soundbites that usually keep a resume lost in a pile. I have since recommended Deirdre to a number of friends.”
Karen G.
“Deirdre did an exceptional job of crafting my resume basically from scratch incorporating over 20 years of work experience and professional achievements. From a face-to-face meeting and a handful of emails, she transformed my words into a detailed yet succinct professional document that is worthy of a high-performing Sales Exec. It is sharp, polished, and communicates my professional strengths, work experience, and qualifications in a manner I could not have achieved. She was a pleasure to work with. Employing Deirdre’s resume services was a smart career investment and I highly recommend her should you wish to advance your career.”
Conrad K.
“I normally don’t write referrals or recommendations, but this time will be an exception to my normal practice. I was referred to Deirdre from two of my co-workers who had resumes completed by her. I needed a curriculum vitae (CV) prepared for some positions and functions I was applying for. Being tech-savvy, I look for apps and other programs to create this on my own, but decided that I would need a professional to polish and to make it shine through other applicants. Deirdre was responsive to all my emails, texts, and calls while completing this larger task that included multiple jobs, certifications, and concurrent time frames. Deirdre went the extra mile in making sure everything was perfect and also helped with suggestions on optimizing my LinkedIn profile. I actually recommend Deirdre to a co-worker during this process and like me, he is also impressed by her professionalism.”
Tim T.
“I couldn't be happier with the services provided by Deirdre at Composed Career. She is extremely thorough and detail-oriented, and created a professional resume for me that captured the work I've done. She also helped me understand the importance of LinkedIn and how to use it effectively to showcase my expertise. I highly recommend Deirdre and her services.”
Brenda T.
“FANTASTIC PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE WITH DEIRDRE. I was looking for someone to help me with a new resume and I got that and so more from Deirdre. Losing your job can be a difficult time. for me it was a cross roads and an opportunity to evaluate "is my former occupation what I really want to be doing for the next 10 years" Deirdre was a coach, a therapist, a social media guru and a resume writer for me. She helped me create different resumes for different career paths I was considering. Her social media savvy helped me get the resume noticed in key word searches which led to multiple interviews and ultimately a job and career I love. I hope to never need services again however if I find myself unemployed, I wouldn't hesitate to call on her expertise again.”
