I think mostly because my heart simply wasn't in it. All good qualities for resume writing, but the idea still didn't dawn on me until I met another lady through the internet who was already in the business. I guess you could say she turned out to be my mentor. It was because of her that I decided to open a resume writing service. I started the research phase again and was intrigued by what I learned.
Resume writing is an art in and of itself.
Anyone can type credentials on a piece of paper. But as a professional resume writer my goal is to get my client an interview, and eventually a job. This is an important responsibility and one not to be taken lightly. Nor is it easy. My clients are depending on me to effectively market them, and somehow make them appear more attractive than the other hundreds of resumes being received.
