the
executive resume
by
Thompson
Communications
Corporate downsizing, increasing lateral
career moves and a higher incidence of mid-life career changes have
made
today’s job market more competitive than ever before. Thompson
Communications provides a resume service that is unmatched in western
Canada: dynamic, creative resumes that present you in the best light.
Conventional
resume approaches produce formula documents like every other resume
crossing a recruiter’s desk. Thompson Communications has redeveloped,
redefined and professionalized the resume.
The
Thompson Communications approach to resume design is simple: work
closely with the client to analyze his or her background and skills to
create an effective picture of marketable assets, and present those
assets in the most effective way possible.

The Thompson Communications approach to resume
design is simple: work
closely with the client to analyze his or her background and skills to
create an effective picture of marketable assets, and present those
assets in the most effective way possible.
Analysis
of Marketable Assets. By analyzing such areas as expertise,
skills, career history and highlights, education and professional
development, professional affiliations, and community activity,
Thompson
Communications is able to compile a complete picture of the client’s
marketable assets.
The
Resume Focus. Thompson Communications analyzes the expectations
and objectives of the client’s profession. This will largely dictate
the
resume’s emphasis. Thompson Communications approaches each resume with
a
journalistic philosophy—the information must be concise, orderly and
easy to read. Our aim is to make each resume a pleasure for the
recruiter to read, not a chore.
Design
and Presentation. As important as analysis and writing is
design and presentation. The most effectively written resume may be
overlooked if badly presented. Thompson Communications utilizes proven
design and typesetting techniques to ensure a creative, yet highly
readable document.
Unmatched
Quality. Thompson Communications’ resumes are printed at 1200
dpi on a selection of high quality recycled papers.
An
Attention to Detail. Every Thompson Communications resume is
proofed by both the client and our inhouse staff. This ensures that
every word, every comma, is correct.
