Our Unique Approach to Résumé Writing
At KDB Coaching, we see résumé writing through a lens unlike any other. Grounded in the belief that your résumé should echo your career journey, our services extend beyond the conventional. Your résumé is your introduction, the first impression you make on recruiters, encapsulating years of your career in mere seconds of scanning. It lays down the path for your story, guiding interviewers through the narrative you wish to unfold.
Your résumé is more than a list of duties; it’s a beacon of your achievements, a testament to your value. Whether you’re crafting it yourself or seeking professional expertise, every element—from the skills you highlight to the achievements you showcase—should resonate with who you are and the contributions you’re poised to make.

What Clients are Saying
“She worked with me to revamp, rewrite, clarify, and create a killer résumé I felt good about.”
I admit I was skeptical, I’ve been working professionally for 30 years, why did I need a job coach? I knew it all. But I wasn’t getting work and there had to be a reason aside from the fact that I’m in my 50s and no one wanted me :-(. A good friend told me about Kris, how she helped her restructure her résumé in a way she had never thought of! Now, my good friend is a very smart woman, so I figured, hmm, what’s up with this? Enter Kris.
With her mighty grasp of the current job market and HR background, she worked with me to revamp, rewrite, clarify, and create a killer résumé I felt good about — and could back up. I knew I was impressive but I had no idea I could LOOK so impressive! Thank you Kris! Laid off 3 years ago, with my industry of publishing pretty much dead in the water, I was facing a career change at the ripe age 50+. Not easy, I’m tellin’ ya. After two years of so-so freelancing, I met Kris, started applying for full-time jobs, and ended up with a fantastic job that is a dream job, perfect commute, and great people to work with.
I still work with Kris as a job coach to navigate this lofty new position of mine, and I couldn’t enjoy working with her more, and find her knowledge and help invaluable. So, end of story: I didn’t know it all! Go find Kris, she’ll save you a world of pain! :-D
