Cornerstone Professionals

Who Are We?

Not just another résumé service. At Cornerstone we place a large focus on satisfying the professional clientele. CP has been in business for 4-1/2 years and serves clients worldwide. We have established a strong base in Toronto, Ontario, but many of our customers are expatriates working throughout the world. We also serve professionals who are moving to North America and require an expert résumé

We are not a $40.00 dollar résumé service producing list résumés. These types of résumés have a place in the résumés service industry, they tend to work very well for those who are not seeking a career or trade, however when you are seeking a Strategically Designed Résumé, one should pay close attention to the input and output factor. A strategic résumé should take anywhere from 2-1/2 hours to 4 hours and only require 45-60 minutes of the clients time. Do not be fooled by companies offering low cost résumés that are produced too quickly. These list résumé usually take up to 45 minutes or less to prepare in total. The reason for these differences lies in the process, development and level of service. (More on Résumés)

Tips On Choosing The Right Service

The prices charged for list résumés tends to establish a particular type of service. These companies as mentioned do serve a purpose, but not for the professional. The problem begins when a potential client calls. Many of these companies will accept any caller as a client even if they know they are playing out of their league. They will still attempt to interview and develop a résumé for a Chemical Engineer, IT, MIS, Project Managers, Marketing Directors, Accountant, Executive Chef …etc.

In general these services tend to have limited time to spend on these types of clients.

The interview process for a strategic résumé is based on the interviewer listening to the client and then extracting more information that the client might have failed to tell. Further more you need to understand what the client is trying to achieve in their employment search. It is possible that a manager might not want to get back into management, therefore the résumé would highlight other areas and would be designed with this in mind. At no time should the format be mentioned during the interview. This is decided at the end.
The interviewer should have a diverse enough understanding to be able to interview people from various fields.
List résumé services design résumés based on the clients input. While this might appear to be an interview, it's not. Anyone can be a résumé writer based on these simple questions. "What's your name and address? Your phone number? Please give me your education and work history from present to last. What are some of your Technical Skills? Please describe yourself for a profile. What is your objective?

I'm sure you can see the fault in this if you are a professional going for an important job.
