Why you need an Executive or Professional Resume to Catapult your Career?

A well-crafted Executive or Professional Resume is vital to your career transition in multiple ways:

✔ Resumes have drastically changed in style and content and are now focused on accomplishments, leadership style and your crowning achievements.

✔ An outdated resume can set you back and take you out of competition.

✔ Executive search firms, recruiters, and HR specialists seek candidates whose resumes have a clearly articulated value proposition.

✔ For those seeking to advance to an executive position, our Resume will elevate your brand, land more interviews for upper level positions for a higher title, and ultimately more compensation.

Why a LinkedIn Profile is Critical in Today's Digitally Connected World?

A well-crafted LinkedIn Profile is part of your brand and vital to your career transition in multiple ways:

✔ An optimized, well written and key word aligned LinkedIn profile will attract executives search firms, recruiters, and talent acquisition specialists who are constantly scouring LinkedIn for candidates. LinkedIn is the No. 1 platform for recruiting candidates. Don’t have sparse or poorly worded profile and be overlooked by recruiters.

✔ Because your social media profile is more widely viewed than your resume and has many more features than a static resume, we add your skills, awards, organizational affiliations, volunteer work, patents, publications, and articles.

✔ Your profile is a 3-D depiction of all your accomplishments and experience. We can add project descriptions and collateral to add greater depth to your experience.

My Social Media Coaching and Guidance includes:

✔ How to expand your professional network, and get noticed by peers in your industry leading to useful connections that will potentially lead to your next position.

✔ How to mine LinkedIn for job prospecting and also for business development and lead generation.

✔ How to get the most from both free and subscription based LinkedIn programs.

Letters of Introduction

Your letter of Introduction can be a powerful and memorable way to market yourself.

✔ Why they should hire you.
✔ What distinguishes you from your competitors.
✔ How your experience or skills translate to the target position.

We write letters of introduction and cover letters that pull together your experience in an attention grabbing way to have hiring managers notice and call you.

This is a recent client testimonial who landed an interview that ultimately led to a job offer.

“This is FANTASTIC. I am very happy with how you were able to convert my diverse experiences and tie it to the position in this letter. I am very impressed and grateful!!” – Patricia T., Marketing Executive, Redbull

What is your Brand?

Your Brand is more than a Resume.

As an Executive, a Business Leader, or a Professional, you bring value to your company, your employees and your clients. You have unique talents, abilities, and achievements that distinguishes you from your colleagues and competitors. And we don’t just mean the titles you hold, and your degrees and credentials—your brand is more than that. You are a business leader, a team leader, a passionate professional. It’s your professional Vision and Point of View, your authentic personality. It’s also how you’re perceived in your industry by colleagues, employees and the larger community.

This is your professional brand and what is unique about you. To land that choice position, executive role or business opportunity, we make a strong case for why you should be selected.

I really appreciated Susanna’s methodical approach to my career. I pretty much grew up in the industry and have not needed a formal resume until now. The competition is stiffer now. I was not effectively tapping my network either. Susanna created a new resume and a new profile which was very sparse before and she coached me how to find connections in the industry and deepen relationships. I’m very pleased with the services provided by Susanna and would recommend her if you are in the entertainment industry. She is a great coach, consultant and branding expert.

Alexa T.

Executive Producer - Unscripted Programming – Television and Streaming , 3 Ball Entertainment

Susanna, it was a very insightful experience working with you in refreshing and enhancing my brand. You were also very helpful in getting me to recognize my own talents and take ownership of my power. I would not be where I am without your guidance and help with my personal brand (invaluable step!!) and resume and LinkedIn profile. I can’t thank you enough.

Katherine N.

Senior Vice President, Marketing, OWN

It’s rare that you come across such an insightful executive coach and career consultant as Susanna Shamim. I’m very selective of who I work with and in our first conversation, I knew that I wanted to work with Susanna on her breadth of knowledge and experience. I was not disappointed in our coaching engagement and she did a stellar job in drawing out my accomplishments in a new executive resume and profile. Working with Susanna, I knew that I would be returning to her again each time I make a transition. I would recommend you immediately engage Susanna’s services.

Pricilla F.

Regional Vice President, Human Resources, Microelectronics

I cannot thank Susanna Shamim enough for helping me during my career transition. When I came Susanna who I found on LinkedIn I was ignorant about what personal branding and how I needed to distinguish myself from competitors. The resume and profile that Susanna developed for me was far superior and developed a career story, showing my drive, initiative and accomplishments. Her coaching was invaluable in me advancing from Senior Counsel to GC in the Pandemic of 2020. Even now, recruiters continue to approach me about opportunities. I’ve learned so much about what I need to do to keep growing my network and planning my next career move with Susanna’s help. I recommend you avail yourself of her comprehensive services.

Y. Lee

General Counsel, Multi-national Electronics Company

Susanna, I’m so glad we had the opportunity to work on my transition; it helped me focus for the interviews, and thank you for preparing a compelling and concise resume and an eye-catching LinkedIn profile that led me to landing the position.

I am grateful that I decided to work with Coach Susanna, principal at High-Point Coaching. She asked the right questions and helped me focus on how to brand myself for my job search.

Susanna is also a great career coach and I will definitely consider her expertise for consultations as I navigate this career transition.
