Frequently Asked Questions About Trades Resume Writing Services
Get answers to common questions about our professional trades resume writing service.
How much does a professional trades resume cost?
Professional trades resume writing services typically cost between $199 and $749, depending on your career level. Apprentice/entry resumes start at $199 (15-minute interview), journeyman at $299 (30 minutes), master/lead at $399 (60 minutes), foreman/supervisor at $549 (60 minutes with senior writer), and management at $749 (90 minutes with executive format).
What makes a trades resume writer different from a general resume writer?
Trades resume writers understand industry terminology — from journeyman and master certifications to OSHA requirements, code compliance, and project types. We know how to present your licenses, safety record, and project experience in ways that resonate with construction and industrial hiring managers. Our 1-on-1 interview process extracts quantified achievements that questionnaire-based services miss.
How do you handle licenses and certifications on trades resumes?
We strategically position your journeyman/master licenses, OSHA certifications, welding certifications (AWS), EPA certifications, and state-specific licenses prominently while also highlighting your project experience, safety record, and technical specializations.
How long does it take to get a trades 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 trades 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 trades job market in 2026?
Based on our analysis of 75,000+ trades job postings, the average position receives 38 applicants — lower than many white-collar fields due to skilled labor shortages. A professionally written resume highlighting your certifications, safety record, and project experience helps you land the best positions with top pay.
