get that gig — experienced professionals

Built for real jobs. Designed to land interviews.

Let’s be honest — most resume templates on Etsy and Pinterest don’t actually work for real jobs. They’re light on substance, missing the information hiring managers actually look for, and they rarely explain what to include or how to write it.

So we made Get That Gig — a resume and cover letter guide created specifically for experienced professionals. And trust us, this thing lands interviews.

Resumes are weird. You know just how many things you tackle, juggle and achieve each day — so, why is it so hard to put it down into words (strong, impactful, interesting words?). This guide shows you how to build a strong, impressive application by drawing on what does matter — structure, clarity, storytelling, and smart positioning. It’s simple:

• Download the guide

• Use the templates

• Add your cleverness

• Land interviews

• Get that gig
