I’ve been in my company for 19 years and I need to get out. I don’t know if I want to stay in the industry so I was thinking of functional résumé would be better to open possibilities of other industries. Has anyone used a résumé writing service and if so, can you give me your experiences and if you’re comfortable how much the cost was? Thank you.

I paid someone on Upwork $75 to look over my resume and help me make adjustments to it based on the type of jobs I was looking for. I think it's definitely worth it.

I write my own resume and I look online for templates or for guides on how to create a good one. I've learned from one of my subjects before that a good resume is one that's short and straight to point. Don't include what's not necessary to the industry you are applying for.
