Board Bio
Kathy Keshemberg is a Nationally Certified Resume Writer (NCRW) and Nationally Certified Online Profile Expert (NCOPE).
For more than 3 decades she has developed resumes and LinkedIn profile content and provided job search coaching. Her company, A Career Advantage, serves job seekers in all industries and at all levels, primarily focusing on mid-management, blue collar, and entry level candidates. While based in Wisconsin, her passion is travel which is possible with a virtual business model. In the early 2000s her home base was a 5th wheel trailer which allowed her to work from many U.S. destinations. In late 2019 she spent 6 weeks in Australia and New Zealand, and is anxious to embark on more extended international trips.
Kathy served on the original board of directors of the NRWA when it became a national association, was one of the first NCRWs, and planned six NRWA conferences. She has been a grader on the Certification Commission for years, and has recently tackled several special projects including co-writing new test profiles and collaborating with a team to revamp the NCRW Study Guide.
Believing in the value of the NCRW credential, she is committed to protecting the integrity of the Certification Commission and continuing to train and develop graders and leadership.
