Is a resume coach really worth it?

In a world abounding with free templates, it's never been easier to create an aesthetically pleasing resume.

Templates are great! All you need to do is input your information, and voilà, instant resume! 

The problem with templates is that all you need to do is input your information. What information? What should you include? What should you leave out?

A resume coach can help you create a visually appealing document, but more importantly, they can help you find the words to describe your key skills, achievements, and contributions in a way that grabs an employer's attention. 

Your resume won't get you a job. The purpose of a resume is to promote yourself with the goal of landing an interview. In short, it is a marketing tool. 

You are unique, and your resume should be, too. How do you communicate your value? Investing in a coach is investing in your future.
