Ideally, pay someone to design your resume as a starting place, and then pay them to TEACH you how to write a resume, because you'll make all sorts of adjustments to your resume over time and no one will ever know your career path and achievements intimately as you, nor will they be there at a moment's notice to make keyword adjustments specific to a particular role. So maybe pay someone to design your resume with a good template as a starting place, but you'd get more lifetime value out of learning how to do it yourself.

Also, as far as finding someone to write the resume goes, don't just take them at their word on their effectiveness and success, ask them for recent samples of their work so you have a benchmark of the handoff they deliver to you.

I have an mba so I know what a senior level resume should look like. I’ve reviewed resumes for the company at the undergrad and post mba level.

They told me there would be when I left…what is the best way to go about this?

Recruitment can’t tell me what feedback is creating this gap but also won’t stop mentioning the positive praise and feedback the team had for me.
