ECS: Executive Career Services & DTP, Inc.

Lost my job end of 2013 and have been really struggling. Have filled out tons of jobapplications and no luck. Recently purchased a new APP… Resume Secret by ECS: Executive Career Services. The app has a very crisp layout and helped me re-​design my resume. I sent my resume for a complimentary review yesterday and today I have 2 sharp new resumes, that clearly define my skills.
Steven reviewed my resume and it is obvious he is very good… confident and offered suggestions that were perfect for me. Searching for a job is hard, new targeted resumes have given me a boost of encouragement!
Love the app!

I had considered using resume services in the past, but was hesitant to pull the trigger because resume writing seems like it should be intuitive, and I’ve had success in years past. After doing some more research, quality seems to vary across resume writers, and prices are all over the place. I filled out the form on Steve’s site for a free evaluation of my current resume. Unlike other sites where you might get an automated response or critique, he actually called me.
Our first conversation was pretty funny. Steve gave me some advice that was half actionable. In other words, I understood what he said, but I also realized very quickly that what he was suggesting wasn’t something I could easily do myself. Still hesitant, we talked a little more, and we ended the conversation with my taking a weekend to mull it over. I was torn. A new job easily covers the expense and resume writing is something I appreciate now as definitely not intuitive.
I went ahead and the whole process took less than a week. The final product left me pretty floored. My interview with Rob was incredibly easy — he listened to stories I have told over drinks, and translated them into bullets that I never would have written but were remarkably accurate and poignant. He asked questions to keep me talking, and after a first pass, we went back and forth once on minor points.
My new resume has achieved a 600% increase in number of responses. I have since had to customize it a few times because recruiters were first hooked and needed «a little more of [this].»
The real results have tremendously boosted my confidence, and there is no question in my mind that a professionally written resume is worthwhile. Steve is a tremendous resource, and I couldn’t be happier to have worked with him and Rob.

Steve is very professional, was extremely organized and thorough in the interview process, and delivered an excellent resume. This is far better than any resumes I have had in the past or seen from my colleagues and will be helpful in my future job search.
He has published a number of excellent resume books that are great resources as well.

I worked with ECS to develop and strengthen my resume. The staff was knowledgeable, competent and professional. They delivered a quality product that I am very pleased with. Their use of keywords and phrases bolstered my experience and relayed a higher level of expertise for my qualifications. I found their pricing to be very reasonable and consistently lower than other resume writers.
