PGA Golf Professional - Resume Chosen From 45 Others
Ann Baehr was a Godsend for
me. I am in a very competitive field with unusual resume
requirements. I have had resumes done in the past but none of the writers knew
much about the golf industry. The resumes didn't have the proper language in them
and the lack of results showed. Then I found Ann. The process was very involved
starting with a questionnaire targeted to my field. It took me three hours to
answer it. Not being very computer savvy Ann took the extra step to help me
access and complete the worksheet and to make revisions over the phone for a total of SIX HOURS over two days!!!!!! No one has ever taken more than an
hour total on my resume. All the others use cookie cutter formats and try to
shoehorn your info into it ......don't waste your time on them!! Contact Ann and
be ready to work with her. She will create a resume
that stands out. My resume was chosen from 45 others. Jay Standard, PGA
Golf Professional
I have known Ann Baehr for many years. Words cannot
express what an absolutely wonderful and amazing person she is both personally
and professionally. When I graduated college in 1997, I was in search of a
teaching job. Ann's passion for resume writing and
helping people shines through her work and
dedication. Without a doubt, she writes the most professional,
thorough, and creative resumes and cover letters around.
With Ann's patience, compassion, enthusiasm, and advice, I
was able to land many jobs over the years. Her guidance was most
helpful when I transitioned from a Teacher of The Speech and Hearing Handicapped
to a Reading Teacher. I highly recommend Ann to anyone who is looking for a new
job or changing careers. Thanks again Ann! You are by far The BEST!!!!!

Elementary Education Teacher / Reading Specialist
I graduated college two years ago with a degree in
International Business, and became too comfortable with my present job that has
no room for career advancement. A friend knew I wanted to break into Marketing
and Public Relations, so she referred me to Ann Baehr who had successfully
sculpted her resume to highlight her skills and personal attributes. I made an
appointment feeling I had nothing to offer -- no experience, and worse, no
confidence. I was unhappy with my degree title and lacked direction. I walked
into the Best Resumes office with my thoughts in fifty directions. Ann sat
patiently, and kindly asked me about myself. I felt comfortable and hopeful.
There was no pressure and no rush. She listened,
offered advice, and helpfully geared me in the right direction. When
my resume was completed, I was very pleased with the results. It could not have
had a more personal touch. Ann keeps in contact with me to give me resources,
and has left me feeling confident about my journey ahead. I would like to
sincerely thank Ann for the wonderful job she has done for me. She is
professional, and makes an art of creating a personal picture on paper.
Tara Hoffman, Career Transition to Marketing and Public Relations
I just wanted to share the good news with you. I am
sure you will know who I am. As you will recall I am a Registered Sr. Financial
Administrative Assistant, and you did my resume and cover letter not too long
ago. We never actually met because we did everything by telephone and email.
Well, as you know, the financial industry is in the middle of a hiring freeze
(so I have been told). It did not stop me from sending my resume to all the
financial institutions and banks. There were a lot of callbacks, but once again,
the news was not promising. I faxed my resume to American Express Financial, and
the receptionist was kind enough to put it in the lunchroom where Financial
Advisors would see it. I received a call the very next
day from a very large producer -- second in New York and 19th in the country. He
called because he was VERY IMPRESSED WITH MY RESUME and wanted to meet the
person behind it. We met for an interview and he kept saying how well
my resume was written. Based on my qualifications, he hired me. My dream came
true and my search was over. I am working three days a week from 9:15 to 4:00 in
the summer, and then full time sales in September. Once again, I could not have
done it without your resume writing and cover letter. Thank you very
much!!!!!!!!!!!
D.C., Registered Sr. Financial Administrative Assistant
There is not enough to say about Ann Baehr's resume
writing. Ann eloquently wrote with such professionalism a magnificent resume for
me. Those that saw the resume before were shocked at
how Ann changed the wording to give me a very professional, well-organized, and
coherent synopsis of myself. Others that I recommended feel the same
way. I used Ann again when I switched professions. She fixed my resume and gave
me a cover letter. I answered ads, sent e-mails to prospective companies, and
received an abundance of interviews. Thank you
profusely for your assistance Ann!!
Jean Del Prado, Teacher--Sales --College Admissions Counselor
I wrote my own resume when I change careers from
Finance to Information Technology. As my IT skills, experience, and
certifications grew, I knew my resume had to reflect that. I chose Best Resumes
after speaking with Ann Baehr. She seemed knowledgeable and interested in
helping me. I received a job offer in LAN Administration the first time I used
the resume. I even had to leave my employer two months sooner then planned. I
have since recommended Best Resumes to people in IT, and they have all received
great resumes and job offers.

Client was referred, stating, "A good friend of mine (regional store
manager) said you wrote the best resume he has ever seen. "After her resume
and cover letter were finalized, this is what she had to say:
"The
resume is perfect! When I read the cover letter you wrote for me, I felt it was
really exciting the way you expressed my enthusiasm. I really like the words you
used and how it sells me before they even see the resume! I'm going to start
sending them out right away!"
Medical
Science Liaison / Clinical R&D / Pharmaceutical
WOW! The resume passed with flying colors after a strict review from my former
co-workers at {pharmaceutical company name withheld} who know me and what
exactly I have been doing - and these are a tough kind to please and
super-sensitive about over-inflated info). So, we are good!!!
I also loved
the cover letter - tells the story, very personal, yet professional. Again,
thank you so very much. Just wish I knew about you a year ago. Expect an
increased workflow... :)
Resume Rewrite
for
Sales and
Marketing Executive
This letter is written to alleviate your fears and
uncertainty while doing your due diligence in the selection of a professional
resume writer over the Internet. Ann Baehr performed magic as she whittled
away all the fluff and hype that was in my old resume previously written by
another resume service that met with me in person and charged $800 -- more than
double Ann's well-deserved fees. Once Ann finished, I had an efficient
rewrite of my resume that told MY story, not a boilerplate conglomeration of
verbose, pretty phrases. I am very pleased and grateful!
I can’t stress enough the value of an ethical and straightforward partner in
one's quest for a professional and effective resume. Trust Ann, she’s the
best.

changes but at this time, I am absolutely happy.

The interview went well. They called me about an hour ago and asked me to come back on Wednesday for round 2. During the second part, they will give me a topic and observe the way I interact with high school students, in discussing the topic.
Do you have any more pointers???? I also want to thank you for your email. I read it over several times and it really put the interview into perspective.
