You've Discovered Resources.
We Prove the Impact.

When a hiring manager reads your resume, they should think:
"This person has solved the exact problems we're facing."

"Tell me about the biggest project you led last year..."
2. We Uncover the Goals
What were the goals of the project? The company's objectives? Your specific responsibilities? We connect your work to business outcomes.
"What was the company trying to achieve with this?"
3. We Document Your Systems
What systems, processes, and strategies did you implement to achieve those goals? This is where your expertise becomes visible.
"Walk me through how you actually made this happen..."
4. For Managers & Leaders
What challenges did you face? How did you deal with them? What systems and strategies did you implement to overcome obstacles?
"What was the biggest challenge, and how did you solve it?"
The Result?

What makes a geology resume writer different from a general resume writer?
Geology resume writers understand resource estimation, exploration methodologies, and what mining companies look for. Our 1-on-1 interview process extracts quantifiable achievements — resource estimates, discovery successes, drilling programs — that questionnaire-based services miss.
How long does it take to get a geology resume written?
You'll receive your first draft within 3 business days after your interview. Rush options are available: 48-hour rush, 24-hour rush, or same-day delivery for urgent job applications. After receiving your draft, you have 14 days of unlimited revisions.
Do you offer a guarantee on geology resumes?
Yes. We offer a 90-Day Interview Guarantee — if you don't land interviews within 90 days of receiving your final resume, we'll completely rewrite it free of charge. With a 98% interview success rate, we're confident in our work.
How competitive is the geology job market in 2026?
Based on our analysis of 12,000+ geology job postings, the average position receives 38 applicants. If you apply to 20 jobs in a typical 30-day search, you're competing against approximately 760 other candidates. A professionally written, ATS-optimized resume helps you stand out.
Should I include my PG license on my geology resume?
Absolutely. Professional Geologist (PG) licenses, Qualified Person (QP) status under NI 43-101, and Competent Person (CP) credentials should be prominently featured. We know how to position these credentials for maximum impact with mining and exploration companies.
