"Listen up folks! This is a true story . . . . .

In October I contacted Maurice from the phone book, very hesitant . . . I had already been taken by another resume service in the city.

There was something different about this gentleman.  He explained that he had a family wedding to attend on Saturday, but due to the fact that I had to have this resume by Monday he would help me (ASAP).  We met Sunday mid-morning and by 10:00 PM Sunday night he had prepared a world-class resume for me.

     Maurice took the time to sit with me for over an hour to learn about my skills, past work experience and the job I was pursuing, and to learn about me personally. Not only did I get the job but both interviewers commented on how great my resume was done.

     Dr. Moe advised me before we got started that his services were not cheap. He also pointed out that if you want a professional resume – you have to pay (what it’s worth). And let’s just say I reminded my new employer of the exact same thing when it came time to negotiating my salary. Thanks to my new resume they were able to see that I, too, was a professional and they rewarded me with corresponding pay.

     Bottom line folks, use this man’s resources. He will bring your skills to life. It truly will be Your Best Resume – Take my word on it."
