“If I could name one person who has upleveled resume writing in the last few years, it’s Marie Plett. She has not only swept the TORIs awards (multiple times?) but I believe she has single‐handedly transformed the graphic resume. A graphic designer at heart, her designs are detailed yet straight forward. They literally make you step back and say “wow.” While they are beautiful, they also eloquently showcase her clients’ accomplishments and career narratives.
It is my personal thought that the very reason CDI introduced the “Classic” resume categories for the TORIs is because of Marie … she is just so good that others could hardly even compete.
She has become a leader in the industry for good reason – she is just simply the best in the business for creating professionally designed, yet ATS‐friendly resumes that land her clients interviews. She has opened my eyes to how the graphic resume and ATS‐friendly resume can be one and the same.
Seriously – her investment and contribution to this industry will be felt for years to come. She has literally changed the game.”
