By Kathryn Troutman
Kathryn Troutman is credited with being the pioneering designer in 1995 of the Federal resume format for applying for government jobs; this format appeared in her popular book, The Federal Resume Guidebook.
Her Federal resume style is utilized on the OPM website, www.usajobs.opm.gov, and it is accepted throughout government as the standard for Federal resume writing.
With this accomplishment, Ms. Troutman is recognized as the leading expert on Federal resume writing by Federal human resources directors and civil service senior executives. As the Founder and Director of The Resume Place, Inc., in Baltimore, MD, Kathryn and her team of writers have written more than 30,000 resumes since 1973. Her Federal job search expertise covers both "Federal to Federal" and "Private Industry to Federal" applications-each being very different and challenging in their own way.
In addition to her new book Ten Steps to a Federal Job, Troutman's previous published works include The Federal Resume Guidebook, The Electronic Federal Resume Guidebook, Reinvention Federal Resumes, 171 Reference Book, and Creating Your High School Resume.
