Hey there! My name Valerie, and I am passionate about helping people apply for jobs they’ll love by getting to know my clients’ experiences and highlighting skills tailored to your dream job. More often than not, I recognize skills and abilities that my client didn’t even realize they had!

My Background

I have a Master of Arts and a Bachelor of Social Sciences and have worked in many industries including academia, telecommunications, retail, sports coaching, landscaping, language instruction, and the public sector.

My Clients

My past clients are engineers, mechanics, administrative professionals, electricians, public servants, factory workers, regulatory professionals, inventory managers, millwrights, event planners, entrepreneurs, and military service personnel.

How Wordsmith Résumés Started

After graduating with my Bachelors, the job market was not kind for entry level positions, so I ended up writing, editing and reformatting my own resume and cover letter to apply for dozens and dozens of jobs. While pursuing my Masters, I worked in my university’s career centre providing resume and application tutorials and one-on-one advice. Fast forward a few years and I was meeting with friends and colleagues to give them advice on their resumes. Soon after, Wordsmith Résumés was born!

My Promise to You

I will create, edit and augment your application documents ensuring they highlight your amazing skills to help you get the job you deserve and career you love. Whether you’re searching for your first entry level position, gaining experience overseas, or making a move to a new industry, you have a lot to offer and I am dedicated to making your talent stand out.
