Résumé updates
without the full rewrite.

If we’ve worked together before, this streamlined update service is designed to keep your résumé current, targeted, and ready to send. Fast turnaround, clear scope, and no unnecessary friction.

What’s included

$100 per new position added to your résumé.
Graphic/template refresh is +$50 flat if you want the final design file updated too.
Best for: adding recent roles, refreshing accomplishments, or lightly tailoring toward a specific target.
Turnaround: typically around 48 business hours, excluding weekends.

What this is not

This service is not meant for major repositioning, full career pivots, or a deep rewrite of your entire brand story. If your experience, goals, or narrative have changed significantly, a new package will usually make more sense.

Email these items

Job descriptions for each new role, or a comparable posting with notes on differences.
Exact title, company, and dates for each new position.
At least 3 accomplishments per role. Rough notes are fine. I will refine them.

When to choose a new package instead

You are changing industries or function in a meaningful way.
Your résumé needs broader rewriting, restructuring, or deeper repositioning.
You want to rebuild LinkedIn, cover letter materials, or interview strategy alongside the résumé.

“I’ve used Don for years. Updates are fast, crisp, and always aligned to what I’m targeting now.”

Common questions

Who is this for?+

This page is for returning clients who already worked with area|Talent before and need a lighter-touch update rather than a full new project.

Can I use this for multiple new roles?+

Yes. The pricing is $100 per new role added to the résumé. If you also want the graphic/template file refreshed, that is an additional $50 flat.

Do I need to book a call?+

Not usually. This service is designed to be simple and efficient. If your update request turns out to be larger in scope, then a consult makes sense.

Can this be used for a major pivot?+

No. A major pivot, full repositioning, or broader rewrite is better handled through a new package so the strategy and writing match the size of the shift.

How fast is turnaround?+

Most updates are completed in approximately 48 business hours, excluding weekends and depending on complexity.
