resume & cover letter assistance

Hello Davis Square folks,

(I didn't see any rules prohibiting this sort of thing, so I'm posting -- however, if this isn't allowed, I'll completely understand if it's deleted. I know that advertisements can often be tacky, so I'll be as inoffensive and brief as possible.)

I'm an HR/Employment nerd with several years of editing experience, and I recently started my own resume counseling business, Curveball Career Counseling. It's a side gig for me, so I'm able to offer lower rates than you'd find elsewhere -- $15 for a resume, $10 for a cover letter, and $20 per hour for detailed career counseling and position research. Things have been going pretty well, and I know I've gotten some referrals from members of this community, so I thought I'd make a post in hopes of reaching a wider audience.

Further details are available on my Facebook page, and I pride myself on having a pretty quick turnaround, particularly if you're working on a deadline.

If you're interested, I can be reached at suzannelb AT gmail DOT com. Thanks!

As long as you are reasonably local to Davis Square (which I can't quite tell from your web page), this kind of advertising is fine.

So then no, you're not local to Davis Square.
