My name is Caron and am a professional specialty writer for the construction, petrochemical, refining, processing, pipeline, power, oil and gas industry. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Communication, a Master of Education, and I’m a certified secondary english/reading teacher and published author. I work with clients locally, nationally and internationally, and I write and design resumes that get call-backs, promotions and results.
I personally write all of my work. Additionally, I answer all phone calls within business hours, and respond to client texts and emails in a timely manner.
My resumes are specifically designed to be ATS friendly.
Applicant tracking systems (ATS) eliminate over 70% of applicants before their resume even reaches a hiring manager.
An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is a type of software companies use to quickly determine if an applicant is qualified for a job opening.
ATS software automatically scans and processes each job application sent to a company, and then disqualifies applications that don’t meet the requirements the company set.

Complete the website contact form, attach your current or old resume. I will review your material, address any of your questions or concerns, give you a quote, an available start date and a turnaround time for the first draft. I will respond via email within 24 hours.
Prices.
Please be aware, my minimum fee is $250 and prices are set according to the complexity and length of professional experience per individual assignment. If you do not have a current resume to use as some point of reference, the fee will be more than what’s stated below, for the additional time and research required.
Generally speaking, and assuming you have a current resume to work with, prices fall into these three categories; occasionally, there is something in between.
- Entry Level Resume (less than 3 years of experience.) begins at $250.
- Mid Level Resumes ( 3 to 10 years of experience as a one page document.) begins at $285.
- Senior Level Resumes (10 plus years experience or a two page document.) $350 to $425 plus.
Please note, the above are just general ranges to give you some idea of a starting place regarding prices. The amount of research that I have to do, and whether you have an old resume for me to work from all factor into the overall price quote.
Full payment is due before I begin a project.
I email invoice via Square and payment can be made by credit or debit card.
Turnaround time for the first draft, depending on length and complexity, is 5 to 10 business days.
Your new resume will be sent as a PDF file via email attachment.
For those not familiar, PDF stands for Portable Document Format; it’s considered to be the industry standard for sharing and printing documents. Additionally, PDF files preserve fonts, colors, and layouts across all screens. (Mac, Windows, smartphone, Ipad, and so on.)

If you currently work in the construction, petrochemical, refining, processing, pipeline, power, or oil and gas industry or if you’re aspiring to do so, your knowledge and experience in shutdowns, turnarounds, capital projects, process operations, construction, pipelines, safety and/or OSHA rules and regulations need to be listed on your resume. All of your certifications and training, computer skills and other relevant credentials should be included as well. I work hard to make sure that your resume is thorough and reflects what you have to offer has a skilled professional.
As a reminder, please use the contact form on my website, upload your current resume; I’ll review it and contact you via email. I take all of my assignments very seriously and I only have time and interest to work with individuals who are serious about their career and future.
Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.
