Great Resumes Fast

What Great Resumes Fast does

Great Resumes Fast is a privately held, founder-owned career services firm headquartered in Callahan, Florida, founded in 2008 by Jessica Hernandez after more than a decade directing hiring practices at Fortune 500 companies. The firm provides premium, human-delivered executive resume writing, LinkedIn profile optimization, cover letters, and career branding services for mid-to-late-career directors, VPs, and C-suite leaders, primarily serving individuals navigating age-related hiring bias or career transitions. Its done-for-you service stack includes three tiers — the Personalized Resume Rewrite ($895-$1,095), the 360° Personal Brand Makeover ($1,395-$1,695), and the Rapid Response Job Search Program ($2,495-$2,995+) — each built around a proprietary 60-90 minute Personal Brand Excavation interview and delivered with ATS-optimized output formats.

The business operates a hybrid go-to-market spanning white-glove direct sales (free strategy session followed by writer matching, with intentionally limited monthly slots), self-serve e-commerce for templates and courses on its own storefront and Teachable, and community-led growth via the Job Seeker Central LinkedIn community, the Called & Equipped podcast, and twice-monthly live coaching. Productized digital offerings include LinkedIn Unlocked, Resume-In-A-Day, Cover Letters Made Simple, and the Rapid Response Job Search Techniques course ($89-$197 each), plus the $59/month Job Seeker Central membership and a free executive resume template distributed via a 10-email nurture sequence that has driven 77,800+ downloads. Underlying technology is conventional rather than proprietary — Microsoft Word, PDF, and ATS-compatible templates — with the defensible value concentrated in the firm's writer bench (12+ certified writers with 10+ years each of hiring-side experience), founder-driven content distribution (approximately 550,000 combined followers/connections), and brand assets including a Harvard University endorsement, Forbes Council membership, LinkedIn Top Voice 2020 designation, and editorial features in Forbes, Fortune, Fast Company, Money, CNN, and Business Insider. The firm is bootstrapped with no external funding and structured as a Florida LLC.
