The Real-Resumes Series boosted my confidence and gave me the ability to write a great resume and cover letter." --Jorge N. "After spending some years in private industry, I wanted to get a federal job. The Real-Resumes samples showed me how to create a federal resume and KSAs for federal employment." --Kaely M. "While my background was in the logistics field, I didn't want a job remotely associated with logistics I had 'been there, done that' in the military and wanted no more of it, although I figured I might be jailed to the field forever, like a prisoner of my past. The Real-Resumes Series showed me how to communicate my background in such a way that potential employers could imagine me in jobs other than logistics activities. I am now in management and really enjoying my work. The Real-Resumes Series rescued me " -Matt S.
