Resume Writers Digest Alternative Payment Options

Resume Writers' Digest Alternative Payment Options I've been thinking about this topic for quite some time -- and I'm going to have to do some research into the subject.I wonder if any resume writers charge like the recruiters do -- a percentage of their client's future income. Only, instead of the recruiting firm receiving payment from the employer (usually 30-35% of the candidate's first year salary), the resume writer would be paid by the client.Debra Feldman wrote about Executive Job Agents in Resume Writers' Digest, so I know there are some innovative resume writers out there ... I'm just wondering if any writers would be willing to share their insight into this strategy.I was thinking maybe 1-5% of a client's salary, paid over the course of several months (or maybe even a year). It wouldn't have to be limited to executive clients -- I've thought of offering out-of-work professionals this kind of arrangement ... no money up front; pay only upon getting the new job. Maybe a sliding scale depending on the work found -- 2.5% of fir st year salary if they're making the same or less as before; 5% if they're making more (even if it's $100 more).Thoughts, ideas? E-mail me.
