We all know college graduates earn more than those who didn't go to university - on average $24,000 more each year, or $1 million earnings advantage over a lifetime. So why, after 40 years of growth, has college enrollment been dropping since 2019? Simple: the cost has skyrocketed to an average of nearly $150,000, putting a college degree out of reach for many. 

What happens to those who miss out on higher education? If they're shut out of career services, campus job fairs and alumni networks, how do they go about building a meaningful career? How do they learn about themselves and what paths will fit them best? How do they learn what opportunities are out there and gain the confidence needed to strive for them? 

Sadly, many end up in a cycle of low-paying jobs, struggling with self-doubt and disappointment for the rest of their lives. It's easy to end up believing they're somehow less intelligent, capable, and qualified to contribute to the world at large. 

The worst part is that none of those outcomes are a given. Everyone, no matter their background, has transferrable skills, accomplishments and aptitudes that are valuable to employers. But it often takes a guidance and support to help unearth and showcase them properly to potential employers. 

This is why we created RS Works.

We saw the hurdles that lower-income job-seekers faced when they set out for higher-paying jobs. We saw too many people trapped in a cycle of low-paying, menial roles - often because their resumes, cover letters, and interview performance didn't showcase their capabilities.

So we set out to create a solution for job-seekers and workforce development professionals. Leveraging our founder's 15+ years of career coaching and resume writing experience, we developed an AI-enabled platform that creates highly personalized, effective resumes and cover letters that land job-seekers higher-paying roles.

RS Works helps workforce teams to create beautiful, effective resumes in minutes. Our intuitive platform guides staff and participants through the entire resume-building process. All of our content is optimized for ATS tools, so you can be sure participant resumes will make it through the screening process.
