About Us


About A Paperwork Pro


A Paperwork Pro was founded in May 1987 by Sandy Finkel and provides a full suite of career services. Recognized as one of the best resume writing services for delivering the highest quality work, a quick turnaround and competitive rates, we are your ideal choice. Our company is one of the longest-standing firms in North America with an extraordinary reputation, as reported by online rating sites, customers, employment agencies and human resource managers throughout Canada, the USA and globally.

We do the heavy lifting while you contribute your input. This is why our slogan is “Taking the burden of your paperwork off your shoulders.” Our logo depicts Atlas taking the load of the world from you to provide the ideal resume assistance and other supports to help ease the process of advancing your career. Our mission is to offer professional and supportive career coaching to guide clients to new employment.

Customers often comment that they are treated like friends and “loved” the resume-building and interview coaching meetings. They say we transform the anxiety-provoking task of writing a resume to make it a fun, collaborative, and fast creative writing process. Sometimes, we open clients’ eyes and give them the confidence to apply to career opportunities they hadn’t considered. 

We are known for compassionately helping clients overcome the stress of writing their own resumes and not knowing where to begin. We can start from scratch, but primarily work with clients with existing resumes that require fine-tuning or a total rewrite. Although we cater to clients in all professions, our main focus is management and executive resume writing. In summary, we implement best practices for your employment documents to make you stand out like a rock star and close your interview for your dream job to change your life!
