RESUME EDITING

I’ve been on the job market more times than I can count. I’ve interviewed at a ton of major companies and I understand the applicant experience better than any HR rep. In college, I started providing resume support to women at the YWCA on the South Side of Chicago, and I’ve helped friends and colleagues edit their resumes ever since. Reach out if you want help making your resume as sparkly and wonderful as you are!

WRITING COACHING

I’m currently a volunteer mentor with the organization Girls Write Now. Before that, I have always provided writing support, especially English language learners from around the world. I was also an English teaching assistant at a high school the year after college. I would love to help you develop your writing into something you’re proud to present to family, friends, and strangers.

“Julia helped me develop and edit (extensively edit!!! My first resume was 3 pages long) my resume for my first professional job search. She did a great job consolidating my work history and grouping my skills to highlight my overarching strengths. Now, my final resume looks great and displays the accomplishments I am most proud of in a direct and easy to scan manner. And hey, this resume helped me land my first job interview in my field, so thank you Julia!”
