What happens on my side of the desk
Your resume gets about ten seconds. Here's what I look for in them.
- First glance
Does the top match the job?
The first third of the page has to tell me you fit this role. If I have to hunt for it, I move on.
- Then
Results, not duties
"Responsible for stock" tells me nothing. "Cut out-of-stocks in half" makes me pick up the phone.
- The whole time
Easy to read
Clean layout, plain words, no walls of text. I write every resume to pass that test, and the screening software too.

About
Hi, I'm Shayne.
I've spent 15 years in retail, and today I manage a team of more than 50 people. That means I've read a lot of resumes, and I've watched plenty of good people get passed over because theirs undersold them.
Before retail I was a fly-in, fly-out fitter and turner in the mines, and I ran two small businesses of my own. I've worked on the tools, behind the counter and behind the hiring desk, so I can write for any industry, from trades and hospitality to office, management and government roles.
Let's get you onto the yes pile.
Queensland Government jobs
Applying for a state government role?
Most Queensland Government jobs ask for a resume and a short pitch, usually one to two pages, showing how you meet the role description. It's a different style of writing, and a weak pitch sinks good applicants.
The government application package covers both, written to the role description you're applying for.

The things people ask before ordering
How long does it take?
Your draft arrives within 3 business days of your order and details coming through.
What do I need to send you?
Your current resume (any state it's in is fine), the job ad or a link to it, and answers to a few questions about what you've achieved. It takes about 15 minutes.
Do you use AI?
Yes, as a drafting tool, like most writers do now. What it can't do is know what a hiring manager skips in the first ten seconds, or ask the questions that dig out your real results. That part is me. I check every line against your job ad and cut anything generic or untrue. The order form asks you to confirm this before you pay.
What if I don't like it?
Two rounds of changes are included. If it's still not right, email me and we'll sort it out. Your rights under Australian Consumer Law always apply.
Is my information private?
Your details are used only for your order and deleted 90 days after delivery. They're never sold or shared. See the privacy policy.
Do you only work with people in Cairns?
No. Everything is done online, so anywhere in Australia works. I know the Cairns and Far North Queensland job market best.
