Frequently Asked Questions

What are the differences between your primary services?

Our Competitive Edge Partnership is a collaboration between you and your resume writer that produces a one-page resume which is exceptional, yet concise. At this time, the established practice is to limit entry-level resumes to one page, so this partnership demands less work and time than others.

For this partnership, developing an impactful Linkedin profile that supports your resume is a shorter process than collaborations with more senior professionals because you have fewer stories to tell and not as many wins to share, yet this will change.

Our Top Professional Collaboration involves envisioning, planning, and creating a captivating two-page resume.

At this time, you have proven yourself, so you are no longer an entry-level professional. If you are no longer an entry-level professional, then it is customary for you to submit a two-page resume.

Creating a two-page resume is more demanding and time-consuming than building a one-page resume because you have more achievements to share, so this collaboration requires more time and work from yourself and your resume writer than an entry-level partnership.

Designing a Linkedin profile that augments a resume made through this process also requires more time and energy than the steps needed to perfect an entry-level professional’s social media presence because you have more achievements to showcase.

The Power-hitting Executive Collaboration is our flagship partnership; therefore, working with you requires the highest level of attention to detail and the most frequent communication between you and your resume developer.

If this partnership is the best match for you, then you have many achievements of note plus a host of performance metrics that are worth highlighting; therefore, gathering the data we need to complete your campaign is challenging yet necessary.

Once we have gathered and organized your key professional metrics, the next phase of your journey involves fashioning a winning resume from this raw energy which demands a good measure of discipline and skill.

Like the process of formulating a winning and impactful resume, a campaign that transforms your personal data and professional history into a Linkedin profile which genuinely reflects who you are also takes time, patience, and dedication; therefore, this collaboration is the longest and most exacting of our social media initiatives.

You receive a cover letter that is professional and effective. We create cover letters that clearly demonstrate your professionalism through an up-front focus on your skills and value that is supported by solid metrics.

You may be asking yourself if a cover letter is a sound investment. The answer to that question is yes because a solid cover letter boosts your odds of gaining an interview 10% every time you apply for a position.

Having a 10% better chance of earning an interview each time you submit your resume may not sound like much, yet that extra 10% gives you a crucial and needed edge when the competition is sharp.

A good cover letter makes your resume more competitive, so we encourage you to include this document every time you apply for a partnership which catches your eye.

Your final set of documents is engineered to open every door within your professional field, so it is very unlikely that you need more than one set of career transition documents.

If you are interested in applying for positions across very different fields, then we might need to design more than one set of documents for you. Your need for multiple suites of documents depends on the degree of difference between your fields of interest, so we evaluate your reasons for creating multiple sets of documents on a case-by-case basis.

Yes, for sure. When you partner with us you always get all of the coaching and moral support you need along with a winning suite of career transition documents.

Yes, we work with you until you find a job that you like.

The best way to begin your partnership with Viking Executive Resume Service is to send us an introductory message through our website’s contact page.

You can also contact us by calling the telephone number that we have posted on our website and leaving a voice message which includes your preferred contact telephone number or a good email address.

We prefer to handle payments by sending you an email message with a credit card invoice attached.

It may seem a bit dated, but we see no reason not to accept old-fashioned paper payment methods such as personal checks, money orders, traveler’s checks, and cashier’s checks. Old-fashioned paper payment methods can be sent to us through a conventional mail service such as FedEx or the United States Postal Service.

We are also happy to accept payment by any and all antediluvian paper methods including cash during in-person meetings.

Admittedly, not many clients choose to pay us by old methods because these options are a bit slow and clunky; none the less, some of our best clients pay us through old and uncommon channels without problems.

The option to pay by cryptocurrency will be coming soon — stay tuned.
