Federal Package

 

The government is always hiring!

If you’re looking for a secure job with a more stable schedule and to make an impact, a federal government job may be for you. 

This package is for individuals who require a federal government resume, which includes more detail about your current and all past roles, including bullets for jobs over 10 years old which you don’t typically see in a private sector resume. 

 
 
 
 

IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO INVEST IN YOURSELF.

 
 

The Federal package will:

 

Allow you to reflect on your experience and learn how to leverage it in your USAJobs application

Equip you with an attractive resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile to get you through software filters and grab the attention of government agencies

Boost your confidence and inspire you to apply to jobs of interest

Lower your anxiety, knowing you made the right investment because you’re not wasting time and energy trying to figure it out on your own

 
 
Federal resume success story

When you did the federal resume for a job for me, it was the first time I ever got a federal interview (I even made it to the final round). In all those years as a federal employee, I never got anywhere when applying to other federal positions, so your skill truly made the difference.

It wasn't until working with your team that I started getting these opportunities.

Ashley, Senior Public Relations Manager

 
 

Is this you?

  • You want a more secure job that’s not threatened by layoffs and economic downturns

  • You’re driven by the desire to impact government policy and decisions

  • You have so much more to contribute and you want to make a bigger impact

  • You dread going to work

  • You don’t get the recognition or responsibility you deserve

  • You don’t feel the same energy or excitement for your job as you once did

 

Maybe you’re wondering:

  • How do I get through the software filters to the interview stage?

  • Can I even get a government job since I’ve never had one?

  • How should I approach my answers to the Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities questions and/or personal narratives in these applications?

  • What government agencies would be interested in my background?

  • What do they want to see in my resume and cover letter? 

  • When do I have time to dedicate to this?

 

IT’S OVERWHELMING AND YOU DON’T HAVE TIME TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO IT RIGHT.

YOU WANT A MORE FULFILLING JOB WITH A BETTER SCHEDULE. YOU WANT TO BE MORE IN CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE.

Career Valet can get you there.

 
 
Federal resume success story

Through both email and telephone correspondence, Career Valet gleaned information/skills I never thought to include which really helped convey my full skillset and potential. After the work was done and put to use in applications, I quickly received three separate offers for federal jobs! I highly recommend Career Valet to maximize the effectiveness of translating you via your resume.

  • Our federal writing process typically takes 4 weeks. It includes the following steps:

    1. If you have an old or current resume, please provide it to your writer.

    2. If applicable, send your writer any job descriptions and/or titles in which you’re interested.

    3. You will receive our personalized UP: Unlock Your Potential questionnaire about your background, goals, and the job descriptions to reflect on your experience.

    4. Hold a consultation where you go into depth about your work history and goals in order to uncover strengths and define the value you offer target employers.

    8. You review the LinkedIn profile and provide written feedback to your writer.

    9. Your writer will finalize the profile for you in Word and send it to you so that you can easily copy/paste into your LinkedIn profile online. We provide a short instructional video to assist you with this process.

  • Timeline
    Our writing process can take up to 4 weeks. If you need your products faster, e.g., to meet an application deadline, you agree to complete the UP questionnaire and 1-hour phone consultation by the dates we specify in our welcome email or we cannot guarantee that you’ll receive your products on time.

    In order to provide you with the best results possible, we must complete all of the assigned work no later than three months after we begin the process. Time lags result in the resume writer losing familiarity with you and your background, which in turn results in a lower quality product. We take pride in providing you with superior products. If you have circumstances that will prevent you from being able to complete the consultation and review of the final products in a timely manner, please inform and discuss with Career Valet’s staff immediately.

    Additional Consultations by Phone
    We will revise your document/s post-delivery based on your written feedback. Requests for follow-up phone calls to discuss edits will be billed at $100 per hour with our writing staff, as this is time outside of the allotted consultation and/or coaching session time stipulated in each package.

    Post-Completion Edit Requests
    Once all of your written feedback is incorporated and you’ve approved your final resume, LinkedIn profile, and/or cover letter, further requests for changes will incur an additional cost. Review and editing of documents will be billed at $399 per hour (see Additional Services for more information).

    Federal Resumes
    There are many components to each USAJobs application, which depend upon the position and hiring agency. We expect that you’ve read the full vacancy announcements to determine what you need to submit for your application. If you’d like help with other specialized elements of your application beyond what is included in this package, you’ll be charged $399 per hour.

    Cancelation of Service
    If you decide to terminate the service during the process, you must notify us in writing and provide a reason. You will be refunded the total amount minus the time spent on your package and a 15% administrative fee to cover costs.

Investment: $1,997

This is money you’ll more than make back in your first paycheck!

Federal resume success story

I worked with Career Valet to tailor my resume for a specific government job. I received a job interview, which is a lot more than I can say for other government jobs that I have applied to recently. Thanks so much for the great resume!
