Executive Resume Writer in NYC & NJ
Resumes and LinkedIn profiles crafted by a former HR recruiter
I’m Lynda Spiegel. Before I wrote resumes, I was a global Human Resources executive and a recruiter, so I know how recruiters and hiring managers assess resumes and candidate credentials. I write resumes and LinkedIn profiles that articulate your professional brand and the specific accomplishments that set you apart from other candidates. I work with clients in NYC , NJ, and throughout the United States.

How I write a resume
A resume is a marketing document aimed at the recruiter or hiring manager. It is not a history of your jobs. I build yours around the accomplishments that are unique to you and the requirements in the jobs you are targeting, because the goal is an invitation to interview.
Services and pricing
Resume and LinkedIn profile: fees start at $500 for less complicated projects. Resumes for mid-career professionals typically cost $650 to $1,500. I give you a firm quote after I review your current resume and the jobs you are targeting.
Every project includes a summary of qualifications that states your professional brand, a first draft, and revisions until we are both pleased. Once your resume is done, I write your LinkedIn headline and About section.
How it works
- You send me your current resume and any new information that is not on it.
- Share links to three to four job postings for roles you would use the new resume to apply for.
- I’ll analyze your current resume against the job postings to identify gaps, then I’ll provide you a firm quote, and send my client agreement.
- After I write the first draft, you’ll respond with feedback. Most projects take two to four more rounds.
- Once the resume is completed and we both feel it represents you well, I write your LinkedIn headline and About section.
