EXECUTIVE FEDERAL RESUME:
The Resume Place executive writers are highly skilled in writing targeted, succinct, accomplishment-based resumes which focus on expertise and qualifications. Our executive resumes are outstanding looking, easy to read, professional, conservative and focused. It will be clear that you are an executive with the ability to lead, direct, create, innovate, negotiate, set policy, initiative new programs, and other leadership skills that are required at the SES level. The average executive Federal resume is 3 to 5 pages in length. The average time to write an Executive Federal Resume is 4 to 8 hours. The time required will depend on the state of your current resume.

MANAGERIAL AND TECHNICAL QUALIFICATIONS STATEMENTS:
These factors change for each announcement. You can draft the technical factors and our writers can edit and ensure consistency in information and style. We will be your editor and consultant on these factors. The number of hours required to prepare the Technical Qualifications Statements is usually 1 to 1.5 hours.

COVER LETTER:
A strong cover letter sets the tone for a positive application package, and most applicants consider the cover letter a key feature of their package. The cover letter will be your "Letter of Interest" in the position. You can prepare an initial draft or we can write the letter based on all of our knowledge of the position and your executive capabilities. One hour is required to edit your draft or input for the cover letter.

PREPARING AN ENTIRE SES PACKAGE:
The Resume Place has prepared more than 1,000 SES packages for clients in the past 20+ years. We are highly successful in getting clients qualified for SES positions. We can create an executive package that you can use multiple times. The elements that will change for each package will be the Managerial & Technical Factors and the cover letter. The executive resume and ECQs can be used multiple times, changing only the objective information.

The average cost for an SES package can range from $1,000 to $3,000. This is a major executive writing project which averages 25 pages. Many hours will go into the preparation of an outstanding executive federal presentation. This is a tax deductible service. We are willing to assist with components of the package or prepare the entire application. We can be your editor, consultant and/or full-service writer.
