Your branded résumé is worth its weight in gold, especially when it packages and positions you as a “must interview” candidate. As an executive and senior management professional, think about the ROI you usually expect from a business investment. If your résumé were a similar business investment, what would you need to see as a return to feel it was a good decision? 20%? 30%? 50%? Most executives see a minimum 100% – 200% ROI on their professional branded résumé in their first paycheck.

My exclusive proprietary system features a database with more than 18,000 recruiters and 4000 VC/Private Equity firms. Your résumé is typically distributed to 1000 to 1800 recruiters and 4000 Private Equity and Venture Capital Firms. I also have databases of recruiters, Private Equity firms, and family offices in Asia, MENA, Canada, and Latin America. These databases and the distribution system are so effective that other résumé writers nationwide ask Gilbert Resumes to provide this service for their clients.
