Ask HN: Good Resume Consultant?

I'm getting a pretty low response rate to messages so I'm thinking I need to take another crack at my resume. Anybody have a resume consultant they've used and found useful? Thanks!

Your friends who are in the industries you want to be hired in — and get their true feedback, which might sting, but if you're friends with hiring managers (or become friends) they might also help

I think companies are changing what they're looking for rapidly (everyone's using chatgpt) so this is probably the only real edge- to get in the weeds and understand what people think

also if you're in tech, start building your own brand / "thought leadership"
