Parents ask me whether there is any way they can help their children to get a better idea about what career path to follow. While some career information is provided in schools, there are private providers who specialise in assisting teens to identify their strengths and potential career paths.
In Brisbane, I refer people to: Career Clarity

(Australia – Feb 2010)
If you do a Google search you will find many resume and selection criteria writers – all offering different services. The fees differ significantly, and vary according to what services are included (eg amount of personal consultation, number of drafts provided, level of specialisation of the job, turnaround time; and whether resume, cover letters, selection criteria and interview coaching are purchased at the same time).
You will find providers who advertise that they will provide a resume for $110. At the higher end, prices are advertised at $349 for Early Career, $549 for Mid Career and $749 for Executive resumes.
With selection criteria, it depends on the number of criteria and length of writing required (i.e is one page per criterion required? or two pages only to cover 5 criteria?). You should anticipate paying at a minimum of around $100 per page. However, with very specific technical or executive roles, which require a much greater time commitment and expertise of the writer, a quote of up to $2000 could be expected.
Would you invest $200 to $2000 to win that dream job? For many the answer is a clear YES.
