Federal Package
The below package takes into account changes to federal government hiring regulations implemented on September 29, 2025.
This package is for individuals who require a federal government resume aligned with the new USAJobs requirements, including that resumes are a maximum of two pages in length.
IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO INVEST IN YOURSELF.
The Federal package will:
Allow you to reflect on your experience and learn how to leverage it in your USAJobs application
Equip you with a resume that meets the new USAJobs requirements and grabs the attention of government agencies. Your resume can be targeted for a specific job, or written to reflect the types of government roles you are interested in
Boost your confidence and inspire you to apply to jobs of interest
Lower your anxiety, knowing you made the right investment because you’re not wasting time and energy trying to figure it out on your own
When you did the federal resume for a job for me, it was the first time I ever got a federal interview (I even made it to the final round). In all those years as a federal employee, I never got anywhere when applying to other federal positions, so your skill truly made the difference.
It wasn't until working with your team that I started getting these opportunities.
Ashley, Senior Public Relations Manager
Is this you?
You’re driven by the desire to impact government policy and decisions
You have so much more to contribute and you want to make a bigger impact
You dread going to work
You don’t get the recognition or responsibility you deserve
You don’t feel the same energy or excitement for your job as you once did
Maybe you’re wondering:
How do I turn my long federal resume into a two-page version to meet the new requirements?
How do I get to the interview stage?
Can I even get a government job since I’ve never had one?
What government agencies would be interested in my background?
What do they want to see in my resume?
When do I have time to dedicate to this?
IT’S OVERWHELMING AND YOU DON’T HAVE TIME TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO IT RIGHT.
YOU WANT A MORE FULFILLING JOB WITH A BETTER SCHEDULE. YOU WANT TO BE MORE IN CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE.
Career Valet can get you there.
Through both email and telephone correspondence, Career Valet gleaned information/skills I never thought to include which really helped convey my full skillset and potential. After the work was done and put to use in applications, I quickly received three separate offers for federal jobs! I highly recommend Career Valet to maximize the effectiveness of translating you via your resume.

Timeline
Our writing process can take up to 4 weeks. If you need your products faster, e.g., to meet an application deadline, you agree to complete the UP questionnaire and 1-hour phone consultation by the dates we specify in our welcome email or we cannot guarantee that you’ll receive your products on time.In order to provide you with the best results possible, we must complete all of the assigned work no later than three months after we begin the process. Time lags result in the resume writer losing familiarity with you and your background, which in turn results in a lower quality product. We take pride in providing you with superior products. If you have circumstances that will prevent you from being able to complete the consultation and review of the final products in a timely manner, please inform and discuss with Career Valet’s staff immediately.
Additional Consultations by Phone
We will revise your document/s post-delivery based on your written feedback. Requests for follow-up phone calls to discuss edits will be billed at $100 per hour with our writing staff, as this is time outside of the allotted consultation and/or coaching session time stipulated in each package.Post-Completion Edit Requests
Once all of your written feedback is incorporated and you’ve approved your final resume, LinkedIn profile, and/or cover letter, further requests for changes will incur an additional cost. Review and editing of documents will be billed at $399 per hour (see Additional Services for more information).Federal Resumes

I worked with Career Valet to tailor my resume for a specific government job. I received a job interview, which is a lot more than I can say for other government jobs that I have applied to recently. Thanks so much for the great resume!
