I was blown away by the content Al-Husein presented in this guide! I have to say, I went into the curriculum thinking, "What is this really going to teach me that I don't already know?" Well, everything. Al-Husein's insider HR knowledge on what it takes to get your resume in the hands of recruiters and hiring managers is something that most HR professionals will not tell you. If you are on the job hunt, this is a must-have guide to get your foot in the door.

Everything in this course just made so much sense. It’s like a light bulb turned on. But what really put it over the top for me was once I changed my resume and sent it on a test run for a job I really liked, I GOT A RESPONSE THE NEXT DAY! I had been sending out my prior resume with no response then took this course, made the changes, and BOOM! I highly recommend this course. It will get you results. Thanks Al-Husein and Jeremy!

Six weeks ago my executive was let go. I had signed up for for Al-Husein Madhany's resume course a couple of months prior but had not taken the time to really dive in to it. With my position now being questioned, I began looking for other opportunities within the organization and dove in to the resume course to revamp mine. When I provided my new resume to one of our corporate SVPs, she commented back "Wow I have never seen a resume like this. Very nice!" Two days later, I was offered my same position within the organization with a raise. My raise covered the cost of the course in less than a week and was well worth the investment.

Lately I've read a lot of information about good resumes, from different sources. With that I've built a solid foundation about my background, development and experience - a standard resume. But the "HUMPH" was missing. This class shows you the recipe for the icing on your cake. Not only is it tailored to EA's, it helps to remove all of the noise and clutter a normal resume contains. Hearing somebody confirming that less is more, that it will look better in the end, and how to do it is SO helpful.

"My newly rewritten resume landed me phone screens at some of the most prominent companies in the world."

Rachel F., C-Suite EA

Working with Al-Husein paid for itself, not only because he unblocked me, but he totally reshaped my self perception and how I was marketing myself with my resume. My newly rewritten resume landed me phone screens at some of the most prominent companies in the world, and within a month of the resume rewrite, I was able to land my dream role. I never thought I would need a career coach. But now I don't know how I could ever get to where I am without one.

"This course arms EAs with the precise language necessary to succinctly articulate what we do every single day and our value to our companies."

Kim D., EA to CEO

Given that all EA resumes tend to look exactly the same to recruiters, Al-Husein gives us the tools to succeed in making us memorable on an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of paper with only black ink. He is a Harvard-trained linguist and EA himself, and he arms us EAs with the precise language necessary to succinctly articulate what we do every single day and our value to our companies. This resume course yields real results. Your new resume will get you interviews!

"Your resume jumped out of the screen at me, it was like a punch in the face. Wow. I'm so impressed!"

Maggie J., C-Suite EA

I did everything Al-Husein said to do in this awesome resume course and the reaction I got from a CEO I interviewed with was, "Your resume jumped out of the screen at me, it was like a punch in the face. Wow. I'm so impressed!" Al-Husein clearly knows how to make your resume stand out from the crowd and earn more money because of it!

"Al-Husein helped me land my dream job getting paid $25k more"

Elisa M., C-Suite EA

Al-Husein helped me negotiate a pay raise supporting a CEO in a technology company, and when I still was not getting paid what I believed I was worth, he pushed me to work hard to land my dream job getting paid $25,000 more than I was before! He helped me re-frame my story, rewrite my resume, prepare for my interviews, and negotiate my starting salary, with benefits! I highly recommend working with him. He is highly knowledgeable and knows the industry very well!

"I haven’t seen a resume like this in my 25 years."

Nancy S., C-Suite EA

I recently got an on-site interview with a CEO, and when I came in for the face-to-face, he literally said, "The only reason why I wanted to meet you was because I haven’t seen a resume like this in my 25 years of being an executive, and I needed to meet the person behind this resume." Al-Husein's method works! He got me passed the phone screen and on-site quicker than I ever could on my own.
