Resume Service Recommendations

edited March 2010 in Help / Advice Forum
I've decided I'm way too awesome for my current position. I have a good resume already, however, I really want to go all out and find my next dream job that aligns with my career goals. To that end, I'd like to use a resume writing service to really be able to sell my skill set and experience. Price is not really an issue as I consider this a worthwhile investment in my career. In doing a quick google search, it seems that there are a lot of services out there.

For those that have experience (personal or anecdotal) with resume services, what should I look for? Are there any that you would recommend or that I should avoid? (I work in health care if that makes a difference.)

    There's someone on the SA forums who does this. I don't remember where the thread is located, though.

    I'm not sure if she does health care resumes, but the lady in my sig is a great resume writer. She's done resumes for both my husband and my father. :)

    I'm not sure if you'd want to post it here, but I think there are quite a few HR people around these forums that can at least give you some insight.

    Sorry, I don't have any professional recommendations.

    I like the guys at manager-tools.com. They have a great podcast on interviewing (about 12 hours of how to interview -- fantastic!) plus a resume review service.

    They also have free podcasts on how to make a resume.
