About Resumes That Shine and Frank Grossman
Our new mission at Resumes that Shine is to help downsized federal employees—especially those that have lost their jobs due to DOGE and related actions—to rebuild their careers.
What We Do
Resumes that Shine helps federal employees and former federal workers market themselves to non-government, or private sector, employers. We offer the well-respected, validated, 29-page, personalized, DISC career management report to help jobseekers identify or confirm their job target. Then, we consult with jobseekers on developing career marketing documents, including resumes, cover letters, and LinkedIn profiles designed to generate interviews and job offers.
We are proud of our previous achievements in resume writing, LinkedIn profile writing, and workforce development consulting.
Resumes that Shine has produced successful career marketing documents for clients in all walks of life. Some customers have reported landing the “job of my dreams” within one month of working with us, while many others say they are more confident in their interview prep.
In addition to working directly with clients, we have provided resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile writing services under contract to major career web sites, and to a major MBA program. These projects garnered “5-star” reviews from clients and high customer satisfaction scores.
Resumes that Shine has also provided workforce development consulting and training services to employment programs including NextJob.com, Associated Services for the Blind, Philadelphia CareerLink, and the Philadelphia Unemployment Project. We taught dozens of homeless individuals and ex-offenders to prepare their own resumes through our Resumes that Shine workshops at the Philadelphia Unemployment Project. Additionally, we exceeded our placement goal by more than 15% during a one year project at Associated Services for the Blind.
