Dream Life Team
Welcome! This is the page for www.dreamlifeteam.com. I provide career and resume writing services for executives in the u.s.
A CLO client of mine spent 4 months applying to 80+ general counsel roles.
Tailored cover letter every time. Applied within 24 hours of posting. Followed every "best practice."
Zero interviews.
Then we stopped.
Instead:
→ Rebuilt her positioning around one specific niche (AI + cybersecurity risk)
→ Sent 12 direct messages to GCs at companies she actually wanted to work for
→ Didn't apply to a single job posting
3 conversations. 2 offers. 6 weeks.
The lesson isn't "don't apply to jobs."
It's that at the executive level, precision beats volume every time.
If you’re looking for senior level roles (CXO, VP, GM, CLO, Director) and not gaining traction in your search, let’s fix that. DM me to get started.

- Many clients come to me with resumes that are TOO LONG and have TOO MUCH information. Here are some ways to SLIM DOWN your resume so it gets read!
First of all – resume length guidelines
✪ New grads – 1 page
✪ Seasoned professionals – 2 pages
✪ C-Level with long career history – try for 2 pages, unless you’d be leaving off important previous information
Strategies for shortening:
✓ Condense or even remove jobs older than 10-15 years
✓ Expand margins to .5” all the way around
✓ Lower font size to 10.5 – try using Calibri font.
✓ Shorten lines that go run by a few words.
✓ Pick and choose the most important accomplishments.
✓ Shorten the overview section for each job to 3-4 lines tops.
✓ Re-write text that is verbose. You can often say the same thing in fewer words.
✓ Remove everything that’s not related to the job you’re going for.
