Are you ready to land your dream job & shine authentically on your resume?

I'M ALL IN!

The Face Behind the Words: Khanh Nguyen, M.A.

  • I edited resumes in high school and was always told I have “a way with words.” In 2022, I launched my LLC while pursuing my doctorate in psychology. I’ve revamped 450+ resumes for 100+ professions, including attorneys, dentists, federal employees, photographers, senior IT directors, and teachers. My clients are from all around the world, including Australia, Canada, Dubai, Ecuador, Germany, Portugal, Singapore, and the United States. Your turn is next!

  • There’s more to me than my love for resumes! Here’s the inside scoop:

    1.) I’m an extrovert who loves meeting new faces. I’ve been nicknamed Human Sunshine!

    2.) I’m passionate about providing therapy for forensic patients with severe mental illnesses (e.g., schizophrenia) and violent criminal histories.

    3.) Food is my love language. I’ll never turn down calamari or a burger (with a fried egg, of course)!

    4.) I speak Vietnamese fluently and have visited the motherland eight times!

    5.) I’m a winter baby (team Capricorn) who belongs by the lake under the sun.

The Process

  • Submit your resume as a Word document (not a PDF, as I will add comments to explain my edits). Include your LinkedIn and specific job postings you are interested in (if applicable).

    You may also book a resume editing Zoom meeting on the same submission page.

    If you do not already have a resume, I recommend downloading my free ATS-compatible template, which is located in my website’s header. The editable template includes comments with suggestions to help you fill it out. Share as much information about your experiences as possible, but do not worry about correct grammar and formatting. I will take care of these things when I edit your resume.

  • Within 24 hours of receiving your resume submission, I will text you to process your payment. I accept payments through Apple Pay, Cash App, PayPal, Venmo, and Zelle. The full payment is due before I edit your resume. I do not offer payment plans or sliding scale fees.

    If you booked a resume editing Zoom meeting, I would email you the link after I receive your payment.

  • I will strategically review your resume, industry keywords, and specific job postings you are interested in (if applicable). I will re-format your resume in alignment with the Applicant Tracking System (ATS). This is a collaborative process, so I will text you with questions about your work experiences and skills to ensure I have a clear understanding of your accomplishments and goals. This process typically takes a few days.

  • Within the 4-5 day turnaround timeline, I will email you an editable and downloadable Word Document/Google Doc of your revamped resume, which will include comments that thoroughly explain my revisions. Please review your new resume on a computer for the best and most accurate format.

    If you booked a resume editing Zoom meeting, I would email your new resume shortly after our video call.

    If further extensive edits are needed, an additional fee of $90 is required. I would be more than happy to make small changes at no extra cost.

  • Submit a testimonial if you had a positive client experience! Include a headshot or selfie to be featured on my website and social media platforms if you are comfortable.

    This is also an opportunity for you to share any feedback for improvement in my business and services. Additionally, I would like to personally thank previous clients who referred you to me.

 FAQs

  • I sure do! Federal resumes can be tricky to navigate, which is where I come in to help! Here are some tips to get you started.

  • Yes, I edit curriculum vitaes (CVs)! I have a CV myself as a doctoral student in clinical psychology.

    Prices are the same for resumes and CVs.

  • Absolutely! As a doctoral student in clinical psychology and a former employee in the Graduate Admissions Office, I know what programs typically look for in applicants. This first-generation student would be honored to be a small part of your academic journey!

  • I no longer edit cover letters, as I am not as passionate about them in comparison to resumes. Fortunately, there are many free and effective templates online. Generally, I recommend introducing yourself and your interest in the company in the first paragraph, discussing your accomplishments and skills in the second and third paragraphs, and connecting your experiences and goals to the company’s mission and objectives in the last paragraph. Make sure to use the same header as your resume and conclude your cover letter by thanking the reader for their time and consideration!

  • Before meeting and collaborating via Zoom, I research clients’ lines of work and jobs they want to apply for. I learn what is important and impactful in their careers and more importantly, what is valuable to them.

    During the Zoom meetings, I make and explain my edits in detail. I incorporate keywords from job descriptions and postings. I ask thorough questions to not only elaborate upon clients' professional experiences but also to help them recognize the magnitude of their achievements. They can also ask questions and receive answers in real time!

    At the end of the Zoom sessions, if I know of other resources and/or networking opportunities, I'll certainly share them! My resume services are not the only available and useful tools out there, especially in an increasingly competitive and demanding economy.

    After the Zoom meetings, I email clients editable Word documents of their updated resumes.

  • If you cancel within 48 hours, you would receive a 50% refund. If you cancel within 24 hours, you would receive a 25% refund. I allow a 10-minute grace period. If you fail to show up after 10 minutes, your booking would be cancelled and you would not receive a refund. These policies are strictly enforced to protect my, your, and other clients’ time. 

    If you need to reschedule, I would be flexible if my schedule allowed it. Please notify me as soon as possible to find another day and time that would work for both of us. There is not a rescheduling fee. 

  • A rough draft shows me how you write and what your professional experiences are. Having background information allows me to curate a resume that is authentic to you and your style of communication. It also lets me elaborate upon your experiences. Don’t worry - a rough draft is not meant to be perfect! I will take care of the rest.

  • Full payments are required upon submitting your resume and/or booking your resume editing Zoom meeting. I will text you to confirm your payment within 24 hours of your submission and/or booking. I accept payments through Apple Pay, Cash App, PayPal, Venmo, and Zelle.

  • I do not offer payment plans or sliding scale fees to ensure consistent quality for all clients, as well as financial stability and a smooth administrative workflow for myself. However, there are many free resources and tips on my website and the Internet. If I know a resume writer who better aligns with your budget and goals, I would happily refer you to them. Otherwise, I will be here whenever you are fully comfortable and ready to make the investment with me!

  • Nope! While AI and ChatGPT are good starting points to write resumes, they have limitations. These systems typically use generic wording, which won’t make your resume stand out among other applicants. AI and ChatGPT can make inaccurate assumptions and falsify your experiences because they don’t know you and your skills personally. Lastly, employers and hiring managers usually know when you submit an AI-generated resume, especially if you can’t articulate and discuss your experiences in detail during interviews.

    When you work with me, I enhance your resume by using authentic, human-like words. I incorporate your unique personality and communication style based on thorough understanding of your experiences, skills, and career field. I take the time to get to know you and what truly matters to you as a job seeker and most importantly, a person.

  • Believe it or not, many recruiters and HR professionals haven’t actually had the jobs you’re applying for. This means your resume should use layman’s terms. Having an objective perspective and a fresh set of eyes on your resume is crucial. I conduct extensive research about professions I am unfamiliar with. Additionally, I’ve worked with 100+ different professions, so I can cross-reference your resume with a former client’s resume to better understand your line of work. I’ll be sure to ask you questions if I need more clarification!

  • I do not offer interview coaching services. Before an interview, I recommend researching the company’s mission and history, thoroughly understanding the job description, reaching out to current or former employees to ask about their interview experiences, printing a few copies of your resume if your interview is in person, and conducting mock interviews with friends or family. YouTube is a great resource as well!

    If you would like to invest in interview coaching services, I recommend working with Michelle Akl, a Senior Product Operations Associate and a former Software Engineer. You can book a Zoom meeting with her here.

  • Please submit an Inquiry Form. I will respond within 24 hours. I am excited to hear from you!
