Top Margin Executive Resumes & Coaching

The year was 1990. The first known World Wide Web page had just been written, “SEEK” was part of a game children played, and the term "Yahoo” was Australian slang for a loutish person. Australia’s total population had almost reached 17 million, the average annual salary was $27,227 and the unemployment rate was 5.8%. Twenty-six years is just a blip in the grand scheme of time, but for an executive resume writing service like Top Margin, it is almost an eternity. Opened for business in 1990, Top Margin Executive Resumes and Coaching has continued to grow through the tireless efforts of its founder, Gayle Howard—Certified Executive Resume Master and Personal Branding Strategist. Based on a philosophy of exceeding clients’ expectations, Top Margin has grown to become one of the busiest and most respected career marketing and personal branding consultancies in Australia, with 29 TORI awards to our credit (includes 54 nominations, 19 First Place Awards, 4 Second Place, 5 Third Place and Second and Third-Place awards in the World's Best Resume Competition). We have written more than 13,000 resumes for clients worldwide, and our resumes are published in 24 international resume writing and career advice books. Today, every component of the Top Margin group of career services bears our distinctive stamp of creativity, cutting-edge ideas, and honest communications. As your personal marketing team, we don the hats of career archaeologist, personal PR machine, support network, advocate, and cheerleader for all our clients who are or want to be on the road to success. Little wonder that the majority of Top Margin’s new business comes from client referrals and excellence in customer service is clearly the reason we won the Australian Achiever Award in 2003 and Highly Recommended Certificate in 2004.
