Resume Updates:
Add New Experience to
Your Existing Resume
When you've gained new experience worth highlighting, we'll update your resume with a quick interview to capture what's changed.
What is a resume update? A resume update adds new experience to your existing Resume Target resume—perfect for promotions, new roles, or recent achievements when your career direction hasn't changed. It's a quick 15-30 minute interview to capture what's new, available to existing clients within 2 years of their original order.
Who can get a resume update? Existing Resume Target clients within 2 years of their original order.

Why the 2-year window?
Employers focus on recent experience
Hiring managers care most about your last 5 years. Resumes older than 2 years typically need 50%+ of content refreshed—that's not an update, it's a rewrite.
Updates add, they don't restructure
An update incorporates new experience into your existing framework. If your whole resume needs repositioning, you need a full interview to do it right.
Quick interview
to capture what's new
We'll schedule a 15-30 minute call to discuss your recent experience. Then we update your resume and cover letter with the new content.
