Client Testimonials

I had my first meeting/interview today. The firm offered me the position on the spot. They appreciated the fact that I hired a professional resume writer, and put so much thought and effort into my resume; that is the kind of person they want to join their firm.

Great job, Marian!

Thank you for transforming my career history in some real attention-grabbing goodies! Thank you also for alleviating a lot of my job search concerns. I now know that between the really strong resume you crafted for me and the job search tips you shared with me, I no longer worry about being unemployed for long. I am so glad I found you!

Marian Bernard is my, as well as THE, service provider of choice in the field of resume preparation. In the past couple of years, she has composed four resumes [for me], each of which resulted in my academic and career advancement.

Marian is very passionate about the work she does, and it is partly due to this passion that she excels. She has an eye for detail, is thorough, and creative. Marian has exceptional skill and knowledge, researches well, and stays up to date regarding high-quality resume preparation expectations. These characteristics are effectively used when tailoring a resume to meet one’s needs, and this is precisely what I have experienced first-hand.

In today’s competitive job market, a clear “edge” is required, and having a resume done by Marian provides what is needed. Make an appointment! I guarantee she will create an impressive resume… even while you wait.

It is my pleasure to wholeheartedly recommend Marian for all your resume needs. For me, she is the ONLY choice.

I just wanted to let you know that I aced the interview (thanks to the tips), and I GOT THE JOB!

A lady called me wanting me to do a [position title] resume. I discovered that you [Marian] had already done one for her, and she just needed an address change; however, she had a deadline of less than 3 hours for a “dream job” she had just heard about. She was willing to start from scratch with me. I told her that I would not produce anything close to the calibre of what you produce, and since all she needed was an address change…

But what I wanted to mention here was the glowing report she gave me of your work. She said her resume was so very good and she was amazed at how quickly you could produce wonderful things in writing from just one point she would tell you. She was also extremely pleased with the resume you did for her husband and the position he secured with it, and that she had referred a number of people to you. I just thought you should know. She raved, and I told her that I totally agreed. If I ever needed a resume, you would be the one I go to!

The resume looks good. The [Summary Of Qualifications] section looks exceptionally sharp.

Thank you for the great resume! As [my brother in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada] recommended you, I have asked our sister to contact you for her resume also.

You did a great job on my resume. Hopefully, with this professionally-written resume, I can find a job that I always wanted.

Looks spectacular!! So much more than what I ever thought possible. Thank you so very much!

I would like to thank you very much for the resume and cover letter that you created for my daughter. It is extremely well-written and very professional. I really appreciate all that you did for her.

It is a true pleasure for me to write this thank-you letter for Marian. I refer to Marian as my MIRACLE WRITER.

We’ve been working together [since 2007]. Marian just brings words to life; all you have to do is convey what you did (or do), and she’ll transform your points into incredible selling points for your future success. You’ll never find a writer who is more efficient, smart, professional, quick thinking, and friendly as Marian.

It was a great pleasure to work with you. I love the resume and cover letter you made. So professional and expertly well done. I am impressed, and I am happy with the work you put into it.

Thanks again Marian, I was extremely impressed by the calm, methodical manner, and speed by which you produced my new and exciting CEO resume and cover letter. You are certainly on the leading edge of your field and I appreciate how you captured my skills and expertise in this new resume format.

Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed our time together on the phone. Our conversations about my experience and background helped me to gain a new perspective on what I have to offer a prospective employer.

It amazed me how you were able to so quickly assess and verbalize my skills and strengths. You are clearly someone who has a thorough understanding of what needs to be said and how to say it.

You are a consummate professional – a keen wordsmith with an uncanny ability to represent one’s strengths and skills to a market you clearly understand.

I’m very pleased with my new resume and cover letter, and am very encouraged – even in the present job market.

Working with you was a pleasure and worth every penny, Marian. The day you and I finished my resume and newly-powerful cover letter, I emailed it that same night to 2 of the most respected Canadian headhunters/ recruiters in my industry. Here is what happened:

By 8 am, I received responses and meeting requests from both recruiters – before 1 hour of 1 business day had even passed.

I met one [that day] at his nice country club (I might add) to discuss fitting executive opportunities.

The other said he has an opportunity for me to build and manage a team in approximately 30 days.

Both had my old resume, but it was your resume Marian, that created interest and had them emailing me so fast, I really cannot believe it!

I LOVE the resume and cover letter you prepared for me. I can’t believe it’s really mine. You have a great talent and blessed me with it.

I love the resume and cover letter! I have seen resumes come through my desk and I have to say that this one is the best I have seen. I really enjoyed working with you! This resume means so much to me. You have captured my 10 years of experience at my employer and played it out beautifully. I am amazed. I could not have done it without you!

I know that because you provide a resume service, statistics are extremely important. For that reason, I decided to provide you with the details regarding the success I’ve had with my newly-revamped resume.

Firstly, I applied to 4 jobs and was called back for 2 interviews within the first month.

Secondly, I posted my resume on Monster and was contacted for a position within 3 weeks of posting it.

Lastly, I’ve now been hired for the perfect for me job at this stage of my career – 1 month and 3 days after you sent me the finalized version of my resume and cover letter. Not only is the position better than what I expected; it came with a salary increase of 67%.

And people wondering if investing [in a professional resume writer] is worthwhile.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for helping with my son’s resume and cover letter. We were all very impressed with the final product and would like to recommend your services to others in the future. Even my son himself feels much more confident with his “new” resume. Our sincere thanks to you, Marian!

Just over a month ago, you created my resume, and I start my new job! Frankly, I would have been thrilled to find a job in 6 months, but never would I have dreamed of success in just 1 month!

Thank you so much for your time. The resume looks great! I cannot thank you enough for your professionalism and your ability to turn my resume from a work in progress to a work of art. You are very talented and your passion for words is clearly more than just a passion, it is a skill you have mastered. I really appreciate the time that you took to understand me and interpret my skills so that my chances of finding my dream job are increased by 100%. I feel confident I will find the job I am looking for and this resume is the key to my success. I highly recommend the service you provide and will share my experience with other business professionals.

Thought I would spread the good news. Heard from my employer and got re-hired by them! So happy … and I have you to thank. You did such a good job… you’re definitely one of the best professional resume writers in Toronto. Thanks soooo much!

Thanks for my resume and extra stuff!! I really like my resume and will pass your name on.

It was an absolute pleasure working with you!

The process was seamless – you walked me through all the stages of the resume, and before I knew it, you had a draft copy of my Executive resume and cover letter for me to review in my email inbox!

Having not had my resume reviewed/updated in more than a decade, the experience was a little daunting to me. However, the outcome was excellent and painless! I have since been picked for an executive-level role with a highly visible non-profit organization.

I would have no hesitation recommending you and your services to any of my friends or colleagues – best money I spent on ME in a long time!

Excellent job from an excellent professional.

For anyone who is considering using a resume service, I strongly recommend The Regency Group. From the beginning, you understand that you are dealing with someone who really knows their profession. What I really liked was the personal touch and attention I got during the three-hour session, and in that time, my resume was done.

Marian, I want to thank you for an outstanding resume. By the way, you are a joy to talk to. I enjoyed our time together and hated to see the interview end.

I wanted to say “thank you” for all your great work and professional skills you provided on my behalf. The process was done on time, efficiently, and professionally, in effect making it a very pleasurable experience. I would not hesitate to recommend your services, nor would I hesitate to call on you again.

I received an interview request less than 24 hours after the application deadline closed; as a result of the interview, I have been offered the position of [Executive-level position in Operations], and I have accepted it. I believe it was the resume that gave me the needed sizzle, as I received very favourable comments from several of the interviewers.

I feel very confident that all of this happened as a result of your efforts. Thank you!

You have done a wonderful job and I cannot thank you enough! It was a pleasure to work with you Marian. I certainly will advise anyone I know looking to update their resume to your company.

The resume you wrote me is fantastic, Marian!

It’s been just 1 year since we met and you helped me with my resume. After our lovely meeting, I emailed my resume out as soon as I got home and, within 2 hours, received a phone call for a job interview the following day. I was hired on the spot for a full-time position with benefits! Thank you again for everything, and I would highly recommend you.

I just wanted to thank you for all your help and patience regarding my resume and cover letter. I got a job and with the company that I wanted! So you can add one more to your list!

I thought I had a pretty good executive resume, but I wasn’t getting any response with it. I walked into Marian’s office in the afternoon; we pounded a fabulous, hard-hitting resume on the spot; and I shipped it out by e-mail that night. I got responses the next morning. AWESOME!

I looked over both the resume and cover letters, and they both look great! I was even impressed when I read it, and I originally thought that there wouldn’t be anything impressive about my work history. Wow!! Thanks!!

Thanks so much for your very professional assistance. I enjoyed our time on the phone tremendously. As a result of your resume, I was able to move from my home in Los Angeles to land my dream job in Hawaii. I couldn’t have done it without your resume-writing talents!

I would like to thank you for the tremendous job you did in helping me with my resume and cover letter. Once you e-mailed me a copy, I immediately sent it out to two job postings, and within a 24-hour period, I had interviews lined up with both prospects.

First impressions [get] the interview, and I think your service has [definitely] done its job. This is the best-spent money for anyone serious about getting the interview.

Working with Marian has been nothing short of perfection. She was able to follow up when needed, completed the work, and responded to my requests in a very timely manner. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a resume and cover letter!

I want to thank you for sending the first draft of the cover letter and resume so quickly. I am very impressed with your expertise in presenting the information in such a professional and impressive format and language. I didn’t ever realize I have achieved so many things in my years of work. This experience has been a very positive one for me – not only because I am confident that I have a good chance of getting at least an interview and a good possibility of landing this job, but it’s also been an ego boost.

I wouldn’t hesitate to refer my family, friends, and associates to you if they are in need of your services. You are the real deal. You ask all the right questions, and your personal experiences being used as examples were very helpful and interesting, also.

The very first time I sent my new resume and cover letter to a company, I secured an interview and landed the perfect job! Yes, it was that easy!

Who would have thought that a proper resume makes all the difference in the world? The Regency Group has the ability to present candidates in a positive manner. Selling oneself doesn’t always come easy, and Marian’s professional resume writing skills pitted me one step ahead of the competition. A good resume is a blueprint of who you are, and Marian was able to capture that – all over the phone!

I really enjoyed talking with you!! You are great at your work! Love the cover letter and the resume! I will HIGHLY RECOMMEND you!

I think the resume and cover letter sound excellent! You did an amazing job, and I really appreciate your help!

I wanted to take this moment to thank you for the superb work that you have done with my resume and cover letter. After being out of work for over a year (I can’t even begin to count the number of resumes I had sent out with barely a handful of callbacks) and losing all hope of finding work, I questioned my knowledge, skill, and experience. I visited your website by mere surfing of the web and the transformation began.

The level of knowledge, professionalism, and warmth that you displayed was refreshing and most appreciated! I recall leaving our meeting feeling as though I had a job offer in my hand and not just my newly-created professional resumes.

I truly felt empowered each time I sent out my resume. Your continued support over the next few months as my resume began to get hit after hit, feedback, interview, and second interviews only reiterated to me what an amazing job you had done on transforming my resume. I had a Senior Manager state that my “cover letter was so interesting that he had to meet me.”

I am beyond words with excitement as I begin a new career! Thank you; I am most grateful.

Thank you, Marian. You’ve surpassed my expectations. Best wishes in your future endeavours!

I am so grateful to you, Marian, for spending a great deal of time with me. You are insightful, funny, and generous with your time. I am so happy with the resume; it is so much more professional looking and sounding!

I just wanted to send a quick note of thanks to you as I received your package in the mail! Very kind of you to include the [business] cards!

It was a pleasure to have worked with you. You were absolutely wonderful to work with – very prompt and very, very professional.

Resume looks good!

Marian, you were a delight to work with, and I greatly appreciate your personal time and attention as well as the quick turnaround!

Other than in interviews or nerve-racking situations, I am rarely speechless. However, I can state with absolute conviction that you – Marian – have outdone yourself.

The resume and cover letter you crafted painted me in such a light that if I were in charge of hiring, I would hire me (and without an interview)! I am so grateful and somewhat less afraid to embark on the job application journey, as I am armed with such an exceptional advantage with my new cover letter and resume. Thank you!

WOW!! Accomplishing this milestone [in securing this Executive-level opportunity] would not be possible without your help, hard work, dedication, and cooperation. Thanks, Marian!

I can’t thank you enough for your work on both my resume and cover letter. They are both extremely well written and look professional. I really enjoyed working with you, and I appreciate your assistance.

I cannot tell you how much you boosted my confidence when writing my resume and cover letter!
