What kinds of people does Push Career Management,LLC, serve?
I work with people who are hungry for more in their careers. Push is all about doing things that make you uncomfortable but help you win. Networking with strangers. Asking for a promotion or a higher salary. I believe that you get rewarded when you push and I want to train people for their whole career. On that note, I work with recently laid off professionals who are eager to get back to meaningful work but are dealing with a confidence crisis. I can help you see yourself as the expert you are. I also work with employed professionals who are ready to start their ascension up the corporate ladder. You know when it’s time… let me help you push. Finally, I serve employees facing layoff through corporate outplacement programs. These employer-sponsored packages can help to accelerate the transition for your affected staff. If you’re ready to push, I’m ready to serve you. If you need encouragement, I can help with that too!
How do I get someone from Push Career Management to speak at my event?
Just ask. Simply fill out a contact request on the Contact page and I’ll call you. I’ll get some information from you including event details, audience size, key takeaways you want your participants to leave with. Then we’ll review fees with you and you can select what works best with your budget. If you need a volunteer speaker, I can accommodate a few of those per year, so don’t hesitate to ask if you are a non-profit agency or growing organization that cares about the careers of your people. Let me know if you want a fresh take on career topics from a motivational perspective.
How much does it cost for Push Career Management, LLC, to write my resume for me?
It depends. Custom quotations will be provided following a no-cost consultation with one of our experts. We first need to know you. What are your goals, what is your past experience, how are you qualified, what professional level have you reached and where are you headed? Once I have a better idea of those things, I’ll provide you with an accurate quotation right at the end of your no-obligation consultation. Click here to schedule yours right now.
How long is the delivery once I invest in a resume development package?
The new accelerated resume/LinkedIn services enable super-fast delivery within one day. More comprehensive services can take up to 10 business days.
Why don’t you have samples on your website?
Often specific strategies need to be employed for specific situations and I don’t want my clients falling in love with a format that won’t work well for them. For those reasons among other, practical copyright issues…I have opted against showing templates or samples. I like to let the results speak for themselves. 50% of my past clients have reported getting called for interviews within just a few weeks. That’s great in this long, arduous job search climate. My clients often experience a surge of confidence once they see their actual accomplishments written down.
What is the Discovery Session?
This is our precious and critical time together. Typically held over Zoom (so you don’t even need to leave the comforts of your home). The PCM, Signature Discovery Session is where I get all the information needed to build a powerful portfolio for you. The conversation can last anywhere from 1-3 hours, but we will go deep. I’ll ask all the right questions and take copious notes so all you have to do is think and talk. In real time, I translate your responses, compile your stories, examples, results, and experiences into an attention-grabbing portfolio that’s sure to get you noticed by recruiters and hiring managers. This is where a lot of the a-ha moments happen as you begin to realize you’ve done some pretty special things. A bonus with the Discovery Session is that you will receive real feedback on how to address certain situations during an interview. This gem of a service replaces the e-mailed questionnaires that other resume writing services use. I believe in doing the work, not sending you off to complete a questionnaire for hours on end. I know what questions to ask to build a portfolio that matters. Your Discovery Session is usually scheduled following your free consultation if you should decide to move forward with our services. I can’t wait to help you discover what makes you special and elevates your confidence.
Do I need to be laid off to work with Push Career Management, LLC?
No, not at all. As a matter of fact…many clients are gainfully employed and simply want guidance to navigate the remainder of their career.

How is the team at Push Career Management qualified to assist me with my job search or career transition?
I’m Brenda Mariah, a Nationally Certified Resume Writer (NCRW), a Certified Job Search Strategy Coach (CJSS), Certified Interview & Compensation Negotiation Coach (CICNC), Nationally Certified Online Profile Expert (NCOPE, LinkedIn Profile Builder), a Credentialed Career Manager (CCM), and certified in Employment Law in addition to being a Project Management Professional (PMP). This just means I’ve gone through rigorous validation exercises to demonstrate mastery in all of those areas. The PMP is important for you to know because I also have corporate experience. My real-world experience helps you to navigate the real corporate America. It’s not just theory.
Why is it so important to have a well-written resume? I haven’t needed a resume for my whole career, why do I need one now?
Because times have changed pretty dramatically. Applicant Tracking Systems (the electronic resume scanners) are taking over the job search arena. They are so commonplace and you must be able to play the ATS game if you want to succeed in today’s modern job search. Too often people (job seekers and ladder climbers alike) think they can just list out everything they’ve ever done, but they don’t realize that their resume should be showing how they’re qualified for the next big thing. Its job is to position you and articulate how you stack up against other applicants. Often, a bad resume can cost you during salary negotiations and interviews. If you don’t do a good job of telling your story you may not convince them to give you a 2nd look.
If I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up, can I still work with Push?
Of course. Having gone through intensive coach training, I have fortified my skill set to help you reach conclusions that align with what motivates you! We have a host of tools to help you arrive. Once you know (and knowing is half the battle), we can get to work with positioning you for the work you choose.
What happens after my services are complete with Push?
Most of our packages now include a minimum of one hour of coaching. Data suggests that most professionals (while amazing at their work), aren’t experts in job search or career management. Having expert advice at your disposal to help you overcome your personal challenges is a game changer. We are also gearing up to release new on-going coaching programs at all levels of affordability. Stay tuned.

Push Career Management, where have you been all of my life?
I’ve been right here since 2007. Just born under a different name. You may have heard of ROYAL Resume Services…well that was me, until I realized I was providing so much more than just resume services. In 2015, I thought it was about darn time the name reflected the full gamut of things I could actually do for you. Welcome!
