“Only nice things to say. Getting interviews weekly.”

Anthony P.
4/7/18

Nothing but nice things to say about Find My Professions career finder services. At first, I thought the price was a bit high and all they would do is my resume. I took a chance largely because of the founders LinkedIn network. Glad I did. I am getting at least 3-5 interviews a month. I cant say if I am results not typical but this service is certainly working out for me.

“A career consultant and friend 4 life.”

Ruben R.
4/7/18

This was the type of business and career consulting i had been searching for. My career expands back to pre-internet times. I was never quick to understand the importance of linkedIn. After the LinkedIn profile makeover from Find My Profession, I can see my recruiters place an importance on it. This is a service I recommend for all those seeking to find new work, not just people my age. Good luck and cheers to our success!

I purchased an executive resume rewrite. They couldn't even get my title right. I am SO angry at being scammed by these bums. What a waste of my time. My next stop is the Better Business Bureau. Take my advice. LOOK ELSEWHERE.

Thank you for your review Matt. We appreciate the feedback.

Matt contacted me on LinkedIn stating..." I am requesting a refund and cancelation of your service before I head over to the BBB."

We happily refunded Matt the entire amount of his service, after receiving a now completely free new resume.

Just a month or two after utilizing our resume writing service, Matt received a CIO job offer which he accepted and is now working in.

I paid $1295 for a package to include a resume, cover letter and linkedin profile update. They guaranteed a resume draft in 7 days. The first resume draft I received was at the 7 day limit (came late on a Friday night no less) and the quality presented me as a college grad, not a seasoned executive - * was the writer. I am an established exec and sent them examples of cover letters, resumes, and my LinkedIn Profile content, which I have maintained over the course of my career - * had plenty to work with, yet she somehow managed to diminish it all. I was re-assigned a resume writer, *, when I requested a refund. I received a barely edited version of my existing resume... after 2+ weeks... clock still ticking. I had to follow-up with * to remind her that she needed to complete a cover letter (yet another week until delivered..."I usually only work on resumes" was her excuse) and yet another week with my prompting until * delivered a linked in profile that was no more than the exact restatement of the poor quality resume they produced. It took well over 30 days - a full month... so much for 7 days - to receive all of the deliverables... none of which are usable. Absolutely horrible experience. What a scam. $1295 down the drain - a complete waste, and the 3 jobs I had hoped to apply for using a professional tune-up were lost - postings pulled, not surprising after 30 days have passed. Look elsewhere, or dig into your updates yourself - you'll be better off.

Buyer beware!
Paid upfront for an executive resume and cover letter service on 8 June advertised with a 3-5 business day turn around. I was not placed with a writer until the 14th June who then said they would need a further 7 days to complete the service.
She was not prepared for the interview, had not read any material presubmitted and showed no capability of being able to complete the task.
I sought a refund and while they said they would provide it, as my credit card had to be cancelled due to a hacker accessing my details they refused to pay me back by any other means. I have since lodged a vise dispute form and it is now 3 weeks since they agreed to refund me with no payment received.

We understand that you were dissatisfied with the timing of our services and requested a refund. We immediately processed your refund, but unfortunately, it was declined by your bank. Again, we advise you to contact your bank to resolve this issue.

They are quick to take you money and not provide the service they provide, I bought the VIP Gold Package for a federal job. After the final draft I had to do some correction (Grammar), I started using and no luck applied for more than 200 positions and nothing. I reached *, Director, Executive Resume Services and I am still waiting over a month for her response and nothing they blame for the pandemic and will not issue a refund or work on my resume. I recommend you look for a different company especially if you are looking for quality service.

Shame on you Find my profession.

I've really paused about writing this review as I am sure * will know who I am. However, my experience with this company is far and away not what everyone else has experienced. I put in the work, filled out the questionnaire, gave them examples of what kind of job I'm interested in etc. Talked to the "resume writer" about my resume and he spent 5 minutes talking to me and that was that. A week later I get a phone call from * saying he wasn't happy with he draft and wants to work on it directly with me. Apparently his resume writer he was using was over burdened and didn't do a good job. So * said he would fix it himself.

So I work with him in two sessions and it was obvious he had no idea about my industry or how to word anything to showcase my skills/abilities. He's asking me to give him the language when I am assuming that is what he is providing the expertise in. I'm giving him the examples and he turns it into resume magic. Needless to say this resume has gone no where. I'm back to having to find another writer who won't rip me off and spend more than twenty minutes wanting to make things right.

The kicker was he didn't even offer to give me any of my money back even though he ADMITTED that this issue was his own doing. So my advice is. Be careful for what you ask for and ask * how many people he uses because I get the feeling there is more smoke than substance behind his company.

Business History

Find My Profession was founded in 2015 by Founder & CEO Mike Podesto. After using one of the most well-known resume writing services on the market and receiving zero interviews, Mike knew it was time for a change. After sitting on hold for more than an hour to address this concern with the company, he finally gave up. Since then, the Find My Profession team has been paving the way towards high-quality resume writing services that get results. Our customer service is unmatched, offering email, phone, and chat support with an average answer time of less than 1-minute. You'll always have direct access to your writer (we never use ghost-writers) and you'll always work with the best of the best. Our average resume writer has 7+ years of resume writing experience.

Mike P.
CEO & Founder
Mike Podesto is the CEO & Founder of Find My Profession, Inc. After years in sales and recruiting roles, Mike knew that it was time to begin his journey with Find My Profession. On October 3rd, 2015, Find My Profession was born. The inspiration came from a lack of satisfaction in the recruiting industry and the huge need for help on the job seeker side. Having job candidates come second and hiring managers come first always seemed backward. With more "recruiting rules" than ever, Find My Profession evens the playing field by using their recruiting knowledge to benefit job seekers. With the job seeker in mind, Mike quit his job as a tech recruiter in the Bay Area to devote his full attention to providing a solution exclusively for job seekers.
