Get to know other resume writers in our community with our “10 Questions” series! Our thirteenth profile focuses on Alana Henry, owner of The Writique, LLC. 

Henry became a professional writer for two different reasons: her desire to serve those with unequal access to career advancement resources, and the need for a work-from-home opportunity after the birth of her first child. 

“I am of the belief that we are all distinctly gifted, and that we should use our gifts to help others in their life journeys,” says Henry. “For me, a life of service and a desire to further equity in my community propels me to utilize my talents in a variety of ways.”

This is a top-requested Pass-Along Materials guide!

We tell our clients to customize the resume before submitting it, but this guide actually tells them HOW to do this! It’s a great bonus to send along with the final documents. 

The guide teaches clients how to customize their resume “a little,” a “middle” amount, or a “lot.” The emphasis is on starting with a professionally written resume (naturally) and then tailoring it to the specific job posting or opportunity (including how to target the resume if there isn’t a job posting). 

Includes a one-page checklist for customizing the resume that can be used along with the main guide or as a standalone piece.
