When I first had the “bright idea” of becoming a resume writer, I read the first book in Mary Elizabeth Bradford’s Career Artisan Series. Her book was a clear-eyed guide to the complexities of resume writing and was my introduction to her work. Newly certified and trying to ignore career transition’s inherent anxieties, I was awestruck when I found out she was hiring and agreed to interview me. I felt like I was meeting an industry giant—and in truth, I was.
Fast forward nearly a decade, and the awe I initially felt still lingers. Reflecting on my Executive Resume Writing career, I am astounded by my journey, which was shaped, supported, and continues to be influenced by Mary Elizabeth and the team at CEO Resume Writer.
It’s clear to me now that Mary Elizabeth possesses a unique ability: to see potential where others see doubt. In my case, those ‘others’ were my self-doubts and insecurities. However, under her expert guidance, I received the direction I needed to avoid stumbling while still having the freedom to explore and develop my unique style and strengths.
She celebrated my wins with me and carefully helped me learn from my mistakes. She guides without dictating and empowers without overwhelming. The result is a global team with a sense of shared purpose and genuine camaraderie, a testament to her ability to cultivate both individual growth and collective strength.
It’s often the small gestures that resonate most deeply. Each time Mary Elizbeth featured one of my resumes in her template gallery, it was a quiet affirmation of my contributions, a reminder that my work is valued.
Mary Elizabeth is more than an expert in her field; she is a mentor who embodies integrity, insight, and unwavering support. I recommend her without reservation.
