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.

approach to resumes

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 are 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 in-house staff. This ensures that every word, every comma, is correct.
