Most career change resumes fail for one reason: they're written in the language of the job you're leaving. We rewrite yours in the language of the job you want — so both the ATS and the human after it understand why you belong there.
Applicant tracking systems don't know you're pivoting. They scan for the keywords of the target role, and a resume written in your old industry's vocabulary scores low — no matter how strong your actual experience is.
Then comes the human pass. A recruiter gives a career changer less benefit of the doubt than a linear candidate, so the first ten lines have to answer the only question that matters: why does your background make sense for this role?
We start from 5–10 real job descriptions for your target role and extract the vocabulary employers actually use. Then we rebuild your resume around it: a hybrid format that leads with transferable skills, a professional summary that bridges old industry to new, and experience bullets reframed as Action + Keyword + Result.
Nothing is inflated and nothing is invented. We translate what you genuinely did — stakeholder management, project delivery, analysis, leadership — into terms your target industry already searches for.
Our most chosen engagement — built for mid-career pivots targeting a specific role or industry. Includes resume, cover letter, full LinkedIn revamp, 30-min coaching, and a 72-hour first draft.
“I applied for four months with my old resume and heard nothing. Three weeks after the rewrite I had two interviews and an offer in instructional design. Translating 'teacher' into 'trainer' was the whole game.”
“Cordelle didn't just edit my resume — he re-aimed it. Recruiters started reaching out about the roles I actually wanted.”
“The summary alone was worth it. For the first time, my pivot sounded like a plan instead of an apology.”
