Frequently Asked Questions
What Package Should I Choose?
Regardless of the resume package you choose you will receive customized service from a highly-skilled writer who is qualified to write for your career goals. However, if you are a seasoned executive or seeking an industry/job target that requires specialized expertise, the Premium Package is the best fit for you. The Launch and Fast Track packages are intended for entry to mid-level professionals and/or recent college graduates in need of a 1-2 page private-sector resume format.
There is an additional fee for a CV or Federal resume. An additional fee may also be applied for resumes longer than 4 pages.
How experienced will my writer be?
All of our writers are highly experienced and we are certified through the Professional Association of Resume Writers & Career Coaches, the global industry standard for professional resume writers. PARW/CC was created to give the general public a means of selecting the industry’s best resume professionals.
If I choose to make multiple payments, will I still get my resume in the same timeframe?
Yes, you will still receive your resume in 4-6 days for our Launch and Fast Track packages or in 3 days for our Premium package.
What is ATS (Applicant Tracking System) and why is it rejecting my resume?
An ATS is used by most employers today to screen through resumes and pass the most relevant and qualified candidates forward to the hiring manager. 75% of resumes are rejected because they’re not correctly formatted or keyword optimized. We use the same scanning here at Resume Baron to make sure your resume gets through the ATS scan and passed on to the hiring manager.
Can I have a call with my writer?
A phone call is optional only with the Premium package. You’ll first hear from your writer through our dashboard messenger, and you are free to continue using the messaging tool or to request a call. Keep in mind that you will always be able to communicate with your writer through the dashboard messenger, so a phone call is not necessary.
What is your 60 Day Interview Guarantee?
At Resume Baron we are very confident in our writers ability to craft the job-winning resume you need. If you are not landing at least 2X more interview after 60 days, we will ask you to send over a few links to jobs you have applied for. We will then assign a senior writer to review your resume against those positions to see what improvements can be made. An updated resume and further recommendations to improve your application response rate will be provided.
What Does The Future Update Include?
With your Premium package benefit, we will update your resume for changes in work experience, education, training, etc. to ensure your resume is current. This update is available one time for whenever you need to redeem it. It is best used when you have significant changes that have occurred in your career and you need to update your resume to get back into the job search process. The benefit is not offered for tailoring purposes or to change the strategy scope of the resume we originally developed for you.
Is the turnaround time in business days?
Yes. Although many of our writers do work over the weekend, the turnaround times listed are in business days. You can certainly let your writer know if you’re in a rush and they will try their best to expedite your order.

How does it work? What happens after I place an order?
After purchasing a resume package, you will be asked to fill out a simple questionnaire related to your career as well as positions you’re targeting. We then ask you to upload your current resume or give us the necessary information to write one from scratch.
We then match you to a professional writer, if your needs are industry-specific, we will match your resume task to a writer in your industry. You will then have a dashboard where you can easily message your writer, upload information and download your resume when it’s complete. All resumes are screened with the Applicant Tracking System(ATS) before they are completed to ensure your resume gets past the scan.
What is a resume scanner or ATS?
ATS is an acronym for Applicant Tracking System, a software most companies use to screen candidates. Here’s how it works: when you apply for a position, your resume is scanned by software to see if you meet the basic requirements for the job. If the system can’t read your resume or if you’re not using your keywords properly, your resume is deleted from the system. The system deletes over 75% of resume due to these errors. Wrong formatting, fonts, colors and many other reasons could be the reason why the software cannot read your resume. Using the correct keywords in your resume is another important factor that can help get you past the ATS.
How is my privacy protected?
We never share your resume or information with ANYONE. We take privacy very seriously at Resume Baron! Your email, resume and other information is securely protected and never shared or sold.
Is the turnaround time in business days?

Our writers are also trained with the latest best practices for resume writing and ATS-optimization techniques. We do not hire writers from outside of North America or outsource resume work.

Why not a money-back guarantee?
Although we’re confident in our ability to craft an effective resume, some things are out of our control. The market, job search strategy and industry may all impact the time it takes to find a job. Resume writing services that offer a money back guarantee never keep their promise – It’s just something they say to get you to use their services.
What’s included in the LinkedIn?
The writer will create a keyword-optimized and effective bio for you. This is the most important part of a LinkedIn profile. If you have some great achievements from your previous positions, you can briefly mention them in the professional experience section. Your writer will help you with that as well if needed.
How long will my resume take?
The turnaround time is listed on each of the packages on our services page. If we’re extremely busy, it may take a few more days to get your resume. (Sorry!)
