LinkedIn Positioning
Use this when your profile does not reinforce the same seniority, target direction and evidence as the resume.
Resume + LinkedIn
Use this when applications, recruiter outreach and profile validation need one credible career story.
Full Positioning
Use this when the materials and the spoken story both matter for a complex search, transition or promotion.
Before you purchase
Clear product boundaries before money changes hands.
Career support should be explicit about what is automated, what is human, what is evidence and what remains uncertain.
Is ResumeShortList a self-service product?
Yes. The core ResumeShortList experience is designed to work without a consultation, coach or human reviewer. You can use the free diagnostic, Target Role Match and 30-Day Positioning Workspace independently.
What makes ResumeShortList different from a generic AI resume tool?
ResumeShortList keeps verified career evidence separate from recommendations. The goal is to strengthen the way real experience is communicated without inventing achievements, metrics, titles or responsibilities.
What is the difference between self-service and Expert Career Services?
Target Role Match and the 30-Day Positioning Workspace are self-service products. Expert Career Services are optional paid white-glove packages that add direct human judgment, collaboration, rewriting and decisions about what to emphasize, remove or reposition.
Why does the 30-Day Workspace include ten role matches?
An active search usually involves several serious opportunities. Ten role matches gives enough room to compare roles and iterate without turning each analysis into a separate purchasing decision.
Do I need to speak with someone before buying self-service?
No. Self-service is intentionally designed to be purchased and used without a call. If you are considering Expert Career Services, a complimentary Career Consultation is available to discuss fit and scope before you purchase.
What currency are prices shown in?
All public prices on this page are in Canadian dollars. Applicable taxes and payment details are shown during checkout.
How is personalized work delivered?
Personalized engagements are delivered through ResumeShortList Expert Career Services rather than an anonymous writer marketplace. The same evidence standards used in the platform apply to the service.
Do you guarantee interviews or employment outcomes?
No. ResumeShortList improves the clarity, relevance and credibility of the materials and decisions you control. Hiring outcomes also depend on role fit, competition, timing, relationships, interviews and employer decisions.
