Most job seekers don’t struggle because they lack experience—
They struggle because their resume and LinkedIn fail to tell the right story.

I'm Zohaib Ahmad, a Resume Strategist and Career Coach specializing in helping mid-career and executive professionals realign their career messaging for clarity, focus, and traction.

Whether you’re navigating a career change, overcoming age-related hiring bias, or simply trying to get the right roles to notice you—your presentation and positioning matter.

📌 I don’t just rewrite resumes. I reframe your value.

What I focus on:
✔️ Strategic Resume Realignment
✔️ Executive Career Positioning
✔️ LinkedIn Branding for Visibility
✔️ Storytelling That Converts

My approach is clear:
We define your unique value proposition.
We align it with your next move—not your last role.
We build messaging that connects with decision-makers in seconds.

Because if your resume isn’t clear, relevant, and strategic—
you’ll keep getting overlooked, even if you're the best person for the role.

If you’re ready to stop underselling yourself and start standing out—let’s connect.

The $350 Resume Trap....

I reviewed 50+ "professionally written" resumes this year.

Here's what shocked me:
Most were beautifully designed. 
But had zero substance.

The biggest scam in resume writing isn't the price. 
It's selling you design over results.

Here's what actually matters:

❌ Two-column layouts with graphics 
✅ Clear achievement statements with metrics

❌ "Dynamic professional with proven track record" 
✅ "Reduced operational costs by $2.4M through process optimization"

❌ Fancy fonts and color schemes 
✅ ATS-friendly format that actually gets through

❌ Listing every responsibility you've ever had 
✅ Highlighting outcomes that match the job description

Your resume isn't a piece of art for your wall. 
It's a marketing document that needs to sell your value in 6 seconds.

Stop paying for pretty. Start investing in performance.

What's the worst resume advice you've ever received?

Imagine having a fully optimized LinkedIn profile and a strategy to engage with the target audience to stand out, and attract recruiters and employers.

The Application Strategy That Wastes Your Time 👇

Sending 100 applications and getting zero responses?

You're not unlucky. You're using the wrong strategy.
The "spray and pray" method doesn't work for senior roles.

Here's what does:

❌Stop doing this: → Applying to everything that matches 50% of your skills → Using the same resume for every role → Clicking "Easy Apply" without research

✔️Start doing this: → Target 10-15 companies where you'd actually thrive → Customize your resume for each specific role → Research the hiring manager and company challenges

Quality > Quantity.

I've seen clients get 4 interviews from 15 tailored applications. 
And zero interviews from 100 generic ones.

The math is simple:
15 hours on 100 random apps = 0 interviews 
15 hours on 15 strategic apps = real conversations

Your time is valuable. Stop wasting it on volume.

Are you playing the numbers game or the strategy game?

The Hidden Reason You're Not Getting Callbacks

You applied. You're qualified. You've got the experience.

But... silence.

Before you blame the ATS or the job market, ask yourself:

↪️Does your resume speak their language?

Here's what I mean:

➡️If the job posting says "P&L management" And your resume says "budget oversight"...

➡️If they want "change management" And you wrote "process improvement"...

➡️If they need "stakeholder engagement" And you have "client relations"...

You're saying the same thing. But they don't know that.

The fix:
→Mirror their language.
→Not in a fake way. But strategically.
→Pull the exact phrases from the job description. 
→Use them naturally in your resume.

If you managed a P&L, say that. If you led change management, use those words. If you engaged stakeholders, call it exactly that.

Hiring managers scan for keywords. Give them what they're looking for.

Same experience. Better language. More interviews.

Are you speaking their language or yours?

I know the struggle...

I know the struggle of searching for a job when:

→ The layoff wasn't your choice 
→ You went from "secure" to "uncertain" overnight 
→ You're competing with 1000s of others in same boat 
→ Your confidence took a hit along with your job 
→ Everyone's advice sounds good, but nothing's working

Layoffs are brutal. Not just financially. Emotionally.

But here's what I've seen after working with 100s of laid-off professionals:

The ones who bounce back fastest do 3 things:

↪️They don't rush into applications 
They take 1-2 weeks to: → Update their resume strategically → Optimize their LinkedIn profile → Identify target companies and roles

↪️They focus on quality over quantity 
They apply to 10-15 perfect-fit roles. Not 200 random ones.

↪️They rebuild their narrative 
They don't hide the layoff. 
They own it and move forward with clarity.

🎯Your layoff doesn't define your career. How you respond to it does.

The struggle is real. But so is your resilience.

If you've been laid off, what's been your biggest challenge in the job search?

#layoffs #jobsearch #resumewriting

I never suggested creating 10 different versions of your resume.

I know it wouldn't solve the problem. 
It would create a mess.

People confuse resume tailoring with creating completely different versions.

Tailoring ≠ Rewriting everything

Tailoring means strategic tweaks. 
Not reinventing your entire resume for every application.

Here's what actual tailoring looks like:

↪️Summary Section Tweaks: 

Adjust 2-3 lines to match the specific role requirements. 
Keep the core message. Change the emphasis.

↪️Keywords Alignment 

Mirror the language from the job description. 
Same experience. Their terminology.

That's it.
Nothing more.

You don't need 10 resumes. 
You need ONE strong resume and the ability to make smart tweaks in 10 minutes.

🎯My clients land interviews with fewer than 10 customized applications.

Not because they create multiple resumes. 
But because they know how to strategically adjust one great resume.

Quality tweaks > Multiple versions.

Are you tailoring strategically or creating unnecessary versions?
