Fast and Focused Resume Vancouver - Frequently Asked Questions



How secure is your website?  Fast & Focused uses the latest encryption key over Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology to provide the highest level of security. SSL provides encryption between web browsers and web servers.

Do you have samples & testimonials available? Yes. Our samples are here, here, and here, and our testimonials are here.

What happens when I purchase a resume package? If you purchase a resume package through our online ordering system, an auto-responder automatically sends you our proprietary Resume Preparation Kit. If you order by phone, you can choose to receive the kit by fax or by email. The heart of the kit is a specially designed questionnaire that helps you bring out your skills, achievements and character. When you complete the questionnaire, please email or fax it back to us, together with any reference letters you have and any job ads to which you plan to apply. If you have an old resume, send us a copy also. Once we receive this information, we construct a preliminary draft of your resume package. Then, we call you for an in-depth interview to review and strengthen your questionnaire answers, include any missing information, and uncover any additional information that will catch an employer’s eye. Once all needed information is included we send your resume package by e-mail for you to review. Let us know of any final changes and they will be incorporated into the final draft and sent to you by e-mail. If you request your package in hard copies, they will be couriered to you.

What guarantees do you offer? We not only guarantee your satisfaction with our work, we guarantee the results. Essentially, we guarantee that a Fast and Focused Resume will be more effective at generating interviews that the one you are currently using. See our Guarantee for the full details.

Do you do resumes for clients seeking work in other countries? Yes, we have provided resumes for clients seeking work in the United States and Caribbean countries and stay fully current on resume and CV requirements for the entire English speaking world.

What shipping method do you use? Our shipping policy is here.  

Do you offer rush service? In most cases we create a resume package in less than three business days from the time you return the completed questionnaire, but faster service is available if needed. The current record time for producing a resume package is one business day.

What formats are available? We normally send draft versions of our packages in .rtf format which is easily imported into most word processors. After our clients approve final drafts, we resend them in text format so our clients can apply online through online form boxes. Printed copies of our packages are also available at a slight additional charge.

How do I order my resume? You can order an executive resume, a professional resume, or an entry level resume using our secure ordering process. Or you can order over the phone if you like.

Why do you call yourselves Fast & Focused? Our name is our mission statement. Since 2006, Fast & Focused has built a reputation for quickly creating and delivering interview generating executive, professional and entry-level resumes. Everything we do is focused around one goal: getting more interviews for our clients.

Because people who need a resume usually need it as quickly as possible, the Fast & Focused difference starts right from your first phone call or e-mail. Instead of scheduling an appointment sometime in the next couple of days, Fast & Focused immediately sends you a specially designed proprietary questionnaire to help you set forth the full range of your skills and achievements. As you complete the questionnaire, you be asked for key details that separate you from other applicants and prove that you are an ideal candidate for the job.  Once we receive the returned questionnaire, we write the skeleton of the resume and cover letter. Then we do an in-depth interview of our clients focusing on filling in the gaps in the infomation we have receieved. We skillfully draw out additional accomplishments proving that our clents have the skills and character that hiring managers are looking for. Then we state and organize those accomplishments for maximum impact, making sure that our clients' key accomplishments will be read within the first ten seconds reading time. Once the final additions and changes receive client approval, we send the final copies of the resume and cover letter in both Word and text files (used when cutting and pasting a resume into an online form box.)

At every step, we save you time and money. Instead of waiting two or three days for an interview with a resume writer, you have our questionnaire in hand immediately. Instead of paying for a writer’s time as he or she takes notes of your data, you provide much of your information by completing the questionnaire in far less time than an interview would take. And if a conversation is needed to fill in any blanks in the data, that conversation will be faster because it will focus on what is missing. This unique procedure is the reason why Fast & Focused resume packages are effective, cost less than other providers and can be in our clients' hands in as little as 2 business days.

It is less than a month since you sent the resume and cover letter and they are already generating interest. Thanks to your attention to detail, I already have 3 interviews set including a telephone interview with the executive recruitment manager for my #1 target – one of Canada’s 25 largest companies. I may end up being spoilt for choice!
... Major success ... a senior management position ... in less than a month! Tim, thank you so much for your hard work on my behalf! Your attention to detail and consideration of my true strengths and goals were paramount to my securing this amazing position. You said it would not take long to get calls and you were right! I had my pick of the crop and I am so very happy to have contacted you to assist in preparing my portfolio.
In the 16 days since you sent me the resume package, I've been called for five interviews – in the middle of the recession!
As a former HR guy, I know all about resumes and you wrote a great one. Each of my past achievements was powerfully stated and organized for maximum impact. Your resume proved that I was an ideal candidate; the boss agreed and I got the job.
