You’ve got what it takes.
Something isn’t landing.
Most applications fail before anyone reads them.
Australian employers receive an average of 140 applications per graduate-level role. The ones that get through receive an average of 7.4 seconds of human attention. And increasingly, applications flagged as AI-generated are discarded without review.
Then there are the conventions no one tells you about. Australian employers have specific formatting and language expectations that differ from other markets, and recruiters notice when something feels off, even if they can’t articulate why. If you’ve built your materials for a different country, a different decade, or just from a template you found online, those invisible mismatches are working against you.
Materials that never get read aren’t working, no matter what’s in them. Most people never find out why. You’re about to.

Audit
$75 AUDFind out why you’re not hearing back.
You’ve been applying. You’ve been tailoring. You’re still waiting. The Audit tells you why.
We read your resume or cover letter the way Australian recruiters and ATS actually read it: whether it trips the AI filters now rejecting 1 in 5 applications, and whether your formatting and language are built for this market or overseas ones.
You get back a plain, direct report: what’s working, what isn’t, and the exact changes to make. We show you how to frame your experience for the roles you want, with rewritten examples that use your own content, not generic templates.
What you learn here, you’ll use on every application that follows. Need your resume and your cover letter audited?
We can do that too.
The problem. The fix. The insight to make it stick.
Get My AuditRevamp
$125 AUDUnderstanding is great. Done is better.
You’ve got the diagnosis. Now skip to the cure.
You get the full Audit: what’s wrong with your document and why, then you get to see a specialist fix it. Stronger verbs, sharper positioning, AI patterns removed, formatting aligned with Australian conventions.
In just three business days, you’ll have a revised resume or cover letter in Word and PDF, ready to send with your next application. Plus the Audit report explaining every decision, so you don’t just end up with a better document. You end up knowing how to sell yourself.
Already had an Audit? A Revamp is just $50 extra. Need your resume and your cover letter revamped?
We can do that too.
Ready to go. This time, and next.
Get My RevampThe Full Picture
$150 $100 AUDYou wouldn’t write half an application.
Your resume and cover letter get read together. Let’s fix them together. They’re doing different jobs, sure, but if they’re pulling in different directions, or one is weaker than the other, you’re making the decision easy for the hiring manager.
The Full Picture gets you two comprehensive reports, one for each document, with prioritised findings, rewritten examples, and the exact changes to make. More than that, you learn how to sell yourself, not just in one document, but across a whole application, and beyond. Audited side by side by the same team, so no stone is left unturned.
The whole picture. Not half of it.
Get The Full PictureThe Overhaul
$250 $200 AUDDone in one. Ready now, and tomorrow.
You’ve got an application to send. You’ve also got the next one, and the one after that. The Overhaul rewrites your resume and cover letter as a pair, properly, by people who actually understand the assignment. You see what your application looks like when it’s pulling in one direction: the same voice, the same argument, the same person on both pages. That’s the part you carry into every application after this one.
In 3 business days, your next application is ready to send, in Word and PDF. And you’ve got the audits, the rewrites, and the reasoning behind every change. So you understand how to sell yourself in the next one, and the one after that.
The application is done. So is the guesswork.
Let’s OverhaulLill
Medical Administrator
“Getting such extensive results was shocking!”
Lill had the experience. Her resume was selling her criminally short: a science degree, hands-on time in pharmacy and pathology, and a current healthcare role (her strongest card) that wasn’t even on the resume. Her profile read like AI, and her experience bullets described duties, not contributions.
“The process was simple and painless, which is exactly what I need!”
She came to us expecting a critique. She got a detailed assessment: ten issues ranked by impact, rewritten examples of her content, and a structural template for the missing role. She’d also ordered a Revamp, which delivers the Audit alongside a revised version of the resume. But what Lill’s resume needed most wasn’t on it, meaning the Revamp wasn’t the right fit. So that’s what we told her. She’d come in overwhelmed by the process, and left with a fixed direction for her resume and an understanding of how to keep improving it herself.
“So much advice and suggestions, always outlining the reasoning and giving options. Not only can I apply instant improvements to my resume now, but I also feel I understand the process to make better updates on my own in the future.”
Questions?
The ones we get asked most.
The Audit ($75) gives you a detailed report on your resume or cover letter with prioritised recommendations and rewritten examples you can implement yourself. Need both documents assessed? The Full Picture ($100) covers both in one brief. Both give you the findings and the guidance. You implement the changes.
The Revamp ($125) includes the full Audit plus we implement everything we find. You receive a revised document in Word and PDF, ready to send. The Overhaul ($200) does the same for both your resume and cover letter.
Not sure where to start? The free Career Snapshot gives you a personalised assessment of where you stand and what to do next, delivered within 2 business days.
Most resume and cover letter feedback focuses on formatting and wording. Ours goes further. Every Audit screens across four areas that generic feedback typically misses.
- AI detectability: Research shows 19.6% of hiring managers outright reject resumes that look AI-generated, and 33.5% can spot them in under 20 seconds. We screen for the vocabulary patterns, structural habits, and specificity gaps that trigger that response, and tell you exactly what to fix.
- ATS and keyword visibility: The real risk isn’t rejection, it’s not being found. We analyse whether your target role’s keywords are present, where they appear, and whether the distribution is working for you or against you.
- Australian hiring conventions: Overseas templates, international resume builders, and US-style formatting can all work against you in the Australian market. We flag anything that doesn’t meet local expectations.
For Cover Letter Audits, we also assess strategic fit, whether your letter is making the right argument for your target role, and voice authenticity, which matters more than most people realise.
Your resume, cover letter, or both (whichever you’re having assessed), plus a few quick questions through our intake form. There are some optional questions too that can sharpen the analysis. Five to ten minutes total.
Career Snapshot, Audit, and Full Picture orders are delivered within 2 business days. Revamp and Overhaul orders within 3.
If you received an Audit and want us to implement the changes for you, you can upgrade to a Revamp and pay the difference. $75 is credited, so you pay $50. Got a Full Picture? You can upgrade to an Overhaul the same way. $75 is credited, so you pay $125.
If your Audit finds issues beyond what revision can solve, we may recommend our Create service instead. Either way, $75 is credited toward the upgrade.
We stand behind every product. If the finished work doesn’t meet professional standards, contact us within 14 days and we’ll make it right at no additional cost. See our Terms of Service for full details.
Create builds your documents from scratch using strategic positioning. Refine works with your existing resume or cover letter: we assess it, give you a detailed report, or revise it for you, depending on which product you choose.
If you don’t have a resume yet, or yours needs a complete rethink, start with Create. Not sure? Begin with a free Career Snapshot and we’ll point you in the right direction.
