When I was laid off in 2017, they had us sit down with job search consultants, who re-wrote all of our resumes. Your resume has to get past ATS software, which is a pain. I have always assume that if you are too dumb to write your own resume, you are too dumb to take on a professional position.
The problem with those consultants is the next one will claim your resume is now all wrong. Been there, done that! I have also come across buzz word HR filters and even one HR type who mistook the name of a company I had done some work for, for the name of a software package I had never heard of.
