Education and Professional Development

As a career professional, you are constantly reminding your clients of the importance of continuing education and staying on top of the trends. We know all too well the importance of learning in career success. And, as we get busy helping others, we often don't make time for our own continuing education!

The NRWA strives to provide on-demand, relevant learning opportunities for career professionals including webinars and convenient training. The goal of each of these is to help you maintain your skills, build your credibility, and stay on top of the industry's dynamic trends at your convenience.

How to Get Your Clients Referred: The New Rules of Federal Resume Writing

 

Presented by:

Alexine Garcia

November 21, 2025  |  12:30 p.m. – 1:30 p.m. ET

Federal hiring standards have evolved, and so have the expectations for what a successful resume looks like. In this thought-provoking session designed for professional resume writers, Alexine will uncover the new standards for USAJobs resumes and what these shifts mean for your writing approach. Instead of surface-level advice, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of why so many resumes fail to make the referral list and how to guide clients through the new landscape with confidence. We’ll discuss the mindset, structure, and compliance cues that keep your work aligned with 2025 federal expectations.

This session is perfect for writers who want to stay relevant, protect their credibility, and elevate the value they bring to federal jobseekers. You’ll leave with insights that will sharpen your craft, not replace it.

Alexine Garcia is a veteran and the founder of El Paso Professional Resumes, a nationally recognized boutique firm known for transforming federal and SES applications into powerful, compliant narratives. With over 15 years of experience in career strategy and federal hiring processes, Alexine equips job seekers and writers alike to understand the “why” behind successful federal resumes. Her focus: clarity, credibility, and long-term success for clients and professionals.
