A brand-spankin' new resume, from scratch, with all the trimmings. Order this if you don’t have a resume and you don’t want to save $150 buying the resume and cover letter package. Cover Letters are industry-standard. We don’t make the rules up, we just play them.
This resume just needs a light refresh and edit. He travels light, eats light and always carries a light. His light ruck contains 6 months of MREs. Never let him out of your sight.
Only order this guy ONLY if you have spoken to us first. He's a wiry little guy and can get out of hand quickly. DO NOT ORDER WITHOUT TALKING TO US FIRST.
This resume needs a tad more love to be complete, but has all the makings of a winner. He never thought his first single would be such a success and could use a little make-over before he hits the red carpet. He has been caught hitting the red carpet on several occasions. He once throat-punched the red carpet. DO NOT ORDER WITHOUT TALKING TO US FIRST.
Only order this guy ONLY if you have spoken to us first. He doesn't like crowds and must know where all the exits are at all times.
This document needs a lot of formatting, editing and overall restructuring. It's not his fault being the biggest. He was just born this way. He doesn't even exercise. He's a lot to handle.
DO NOT ORDER WITHOUT TALKING TO US FIRST..
Ah, the dreaded Cover Letter. Industry standard requires all resumes to be submitted with a cover letter. A Cover Letter gives the Hiring Manager a reason to read your resume. Also, by the time we are done with yours, you can use it as the email template to send your documents off digitally and not have to write the “Dear So-and-So, I am writing to blah, blah, blah so read my stuff and hire me” letter. You simply copy and paste the cover letter contents into the BODY of the email. Done and Done! Nothing could be simpler. Well, not sending one could be simpler-That’s a sure way to not get considered.
All the major security contractors will need a biographical sketch of your work experience formatted and worded specifically to indicate the value-added you bring to their teams. We will work with you to create this bio to their specifications and needs. This will require you to send us detailed information about your military background, including but not limited to a long form DD214, your record brief, narratives from awards, and a brief biographical sketch (outlining where you worked, you job title, MOS and what you specifically did in that time frame). by purchasing this item you understand the process takes approximately 2 weeks to complete and understand we may have to have a couple of in-depth phone calls with you to clarify exacting details of your work experience. All sensitive documents are destroyed upon bio completion. We don't keep any records, including your final copy. The final copy is sent to you. Hang on to it. We do not keep any of it once we turn over the final document to you.
ONLY ORDER THIS IF A PMC HAS SENT YOU A REQUEST TO COMPLETE A BIO
The motherlode. The Big Kahuna. The BadaBing. You know you want it. If you don't know what it is then you don't need one. The only way you know you want one is if you are told you need one. We can give it to you. The Curriculum Vitae. Get it here. Once you order, we ask you for a PLETHORA of details. This is not for the faint of heart. A post-graduate degree will be involved along with some witch’s brew.

TERMS
We have to have completed your resume. In other words you have to be an existing client. You can, absolutely, purchase this service as an add-on if you are buying a resume writing service from us for the first time.
Work completed on a resume update is valued at 30 minutes of writing time. If the work you need completed goes over 30 minutes, you will be charged at the hourly rate of $100/hour which is billed in 30 minute increments. That means if we do another 30 minutes of work on your refresh along with the 30 minutes (for a total of 1 hour of work) you bought in OVERWATCH, you will be billed an additional $50 per document (not a subscription increase).
You just can’t decide if you want a package or not. You don’t know if you want to go PSD or Postal. You JUST WANT TO TALK TO SOMEONE! KAREN’S GETTING THE MANAGER FOR YOU! WHY ARE WE YELLING? We’ve discounted the hour-long sessions, so the more you talk, the less you pay. If you need more than what the drop down menu offers, contact us for a customized ninjutsu package.
Throat-Punch Resumes™ Services
The things we have seen and the things we have done.
The things that have been done to us.
Lord knows that list is long. Lord only knows.
We have a Nationally Certified Health & Wellness Coach who also happens to be Chopra certified to teach Meditation, Ayurveda (don’t worry, it’s not woo-woo), and Pranayama (breathwork) and help walk with you out of the fog and into clarity
Health and Wellness Coaching is like nothing you’ve ever experienced.
It’s not therapy (thank F*ck for that!)
Our Coach has been forward deployed and has returned to the harsh reality of no one giving a flying flip about where the soul goes to lick its wounds.
Let’s stop the 22. It starts with you getting through your thick skull that asking for help is not a weakness but a strength-That the oxygen mask goes on you first for a reason.
Come find, Task, Purpose and Motivation in a setting that allows for lickies and chewies, and you can bring your woobie
We are working on getting health insurance to pay for some of it. Yes, that’s how new Health and Wellness is in the health industry.
Each (1) quantity is for one session of coaching. If you set up a free 15-minute call with us you can talk to the coach and see if you are a good fit. Packages can be established for you based on your needs. Some people need 1 session. Some need more. Yes, the price goes down with more sessions.
The reason our clients come to us and stay with us is because we actually give a damn about what happens to you. You are not a box to be ticked. You are not some quota to be managed. You are trying to figure out the next steps in your life, and sometimes that means leaving everything behind, and sometimes that means learning not to run. As a Chopra-certified coach, Karine will walk with you through the unknown of figuring out your life’s path. Sometimes, a machete is needed, and sometimes, a scalpel. Sometimes, even crazy glue. In these sessions, we deal with past traumas, addictions, major events, upheavals, life changes, self-destructive patterns, setting wellness goals, and creating a new you out of the ashes of the old.
Karine is a National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach and Chopra-certified Coach and Meditation, Ayurveda, and Pranayama Educator. Don’t let the Sanskrit scare you. This is the closest thing to “how the hell did you do that?” you are going to get with someone who has been forward deployed, gotten hurt, and gotten the surgeries. There’s no fun at the bottom of the bottle. There’s no love at the end of the pill stack. Divorce is costly, and the price is always paid. Come figure out how to recreate yourself and heal in a place where no one can see you. Emerge a warrior. Again.
