What clients are saying…

I was impacted by layoffs earlier this year and was getting a crushingly low response to job applications. Friends in the industry gave me positive resume reviews, but felt like I wasn't providing the right kind of information. After working with Lauren, the positive rate of response from my applications has jumped from 6% to 23%.

Lauren helped me understand what recruiters look for and how to approach resume writing from a first-principles perspective, synthesized a quick rundown of where I should focus my energy and provided a clean base to work from. I absolutely loved her approach because I have full ownership over the narrative of my career and empowered to make the right tweaks for different roles.

"Working with Lauren to create my resume has been a dream. From the beginning she made it clear that this was a collaborative process, and that truly helped to create a star resume I'm proud of. She is a wonderful collaborator, listening closely to the work you do and translating that into a powerful resume."

“I worked with Lauren to update my resume as I prepared to start a job search. She was absolutely wonderful to work with and I am so proud of the finished product, which is a far cry from where we started. Lauren took the time to learn about my industry, which was one she was less familiar with, and familiarized herself with relevant job descriptions for roles I might apply for. She then had wonderful, detailed, and actionable suggestions for improvements to both the format and content of my resume.

Lauren was professional, flexible, and responsive throughout the process, which took us a few weeks from start to finish. Finally, she was very reasonably priced for the quality of what she provided. I highly recommend Lauren and Elevate Resume Services!”

“Lauren provided great help when I was updating my resume as I began to change careers. She was very responsive and researched the best qualities for resumes in my new profession. Lauren also formatted my resume so that it would look professional and easy to read. Furthermore, Lauren even sent articles to me about changing trends in the job market to help me find a new career. I am very grateful for her service. I really recommend Elevate Resume Services.”

“I originally engaged Lauren for support with my cover letter and resume but I got so much more than updated job materials. Lauren's collaborative and thoughtful approach helped me to clarify my work-place strengths and pushed me to set new sights for my job search. Literally, the week after we completed my materials, I applied to and landed my dream job -- and the rest is history. I am so grateful to Lauren for giving me the gentle kickstart I needed to make my dreams a reality.”

— Kristen A., Arlington, MA

“I worked with Lauren to update my resume, which hadn't been touched in quite a few years. She was very responsive, knowledgeable, and nice - a real pleasure to work with!”

— Noa R., Somerville, MA

“Lauren helped me navigate the transition from college to high school teaching. I came out of every meeting with clear direction and tangible goals. My resume is now enviable, and the work we did to prepare for my interview and demo lesson not only gave me the confidence to ace the interview but made me a better teacher.

After many months of unsuccessful applications on my own, I was offered my dream job thanks to Lauren, and I am so very grateful. She was the first person I texted when I got the job and she was so invested in my success that she called me within seconds!

Working with Lauren was a wonderful decision and I highly recommend her.
