Why not do your own? The last time I had to do a resume, I went to the library and checked out a few books to help me. I also used a template in Word to get me started.

I create my own.
One thing that helps - browse through the job ads for the job that you want.
You'll notice terminology and phrases that are probably industry-wide buzz words. (Head hunters search resumes for certain words).
It should help you fine tune the wording that you use to describe yourself in the skills/experience sections of your resume.
I have some notes at home. If I remember, I'll float 'em to ya!

Won't be able to help much with resumes, but I have subscribed to "Ask the Headhunter" for years and enjoy reading his articles, not to mention surfing around for job search articles on his website.
Enjoy, and good luck in your search.

You're still in the service, are you not? There are several resume writing assistance courses at FFSC and Navy campus.

Thanks for all the input and offers of help. I'm concerned about my resume because a lot of what I read now says that the resume is much more important than it once was....especially in the highly competative market of the PAX River area. I spoke to the VP of FEDEX (government services) when she was in town a couple of months ago and she stressed the resume very strongly, as did a big-wig from the "Patuxent Partnership".
I'll chalk up 26 years of active duty service in May of 08 so the Navy is really all I know. I just want to give myself the best opportunity for a secure, well paying job when I retire. I figure the small investment in a professional resume will be well worth the price...if only in peace of mind.

The resume is important, but what will get you in the door is a good cover letter.
I've helped nearly every single one of my friends write their resumes and based on using my resume as a model along with my cover letter model, each and every single one of them has gotten multiple call backs and had their choice of jobs.
