Automated Resume Writing Tools Don't Live Up to the Hype

I just read an article about a resume writing company that released a new automated resume writing tool that enables paid users to upload their content in order to create a professional resume. I couldn't help but laugh. How is that tool helping someone create a professional resume?

In most cases, formatting the resume is not the problem. Instead, crafting the resume content is the issue most novice resume writers face.

GoodResume.com staff members interview every resume writing service client in order to get a comprehensive understanding of the clients' past jobs, duties, responsibilities, and accomplishments. Then, the professional resume writers actually write -- from scratch -- the content for the resumes.

Don't be fooled. The real value in hiring a resume writing service to create your resume is the custom creation of the content. If a resume service merely offers some spell-checking and reformatting, you are wasting your money.
