Hear from students and professionals who've worked with Orange Standard Services across every pathway.

Strategic, fast, and easy to work with.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Colton as he helped transform my resume and cover letter, and I could not be happier with the results. From the start, Colton asked thoughtful, strategic questions to really understand my background, goals, and what I wanted to convey.

Not only did he offer great insights, but he also did the hands-on work himself by building everything directly in Canva, which meant all I had to do was review and approve. The new format is clean, modern, and makes applying online a breeze.

His turnaround time was incredibly quick, and he was professional, supportive, and easy to work with the whole way through. If you are looking to level up your application materials with someone who truly cares about your success, I highly recommend working with Colton.

A complete game-changer.

Working with Colton was a complete game-changer for my job search. What stood out most about his process was how strategic it was.

Rather than just offering tweaks to formatting and shuffling words already on the page, Colton approached my resume from the ground up.

His approach was helpful in that I ended up with a cohesive narrative centered around my professional life and focused on my target jobs, rather than an ad-hoc summary of what seemed most relevant at different points in my career.

Indeed, Colton helped me consider skills and highlight strengths that I would not have thought of on my own. I cannot recommend Colton enough to anyone looking to elevate their resume and land their next opportunity.

Clarity that changed my confidence.

Colton brought clarity and elevated context to accomplishments I had previously undervalued, teaching me how to frame my experience in ways that resonate with hiring managers.

With his guidance, I submitted a streamlined, high-impact resume paired with a sharp, concise cover letter that spotlighted my strongest qualifications and left me genuinely excited, and far less anxious, to hit submit on every application.
