Ready to Rise is a premium career branding service specifically built for senior leaders preparing to step into executive or board-level roles; leaders in transition; international leaders new to Canada; and long-tenured leaders in traditional industries who are facing uncertain times. Unlike generic resume writing services, we bring deep executive search expertise, giving you a strategic edge in how you’re positioned, presented, and perceived. Our clients aren’t just looking for a new job — they’re aiming for their next leadership chapter.

No, Ready to Rise does not provide job placement or headhunting services.

We are a career branding and coaching firm that specializes in helping emerging and transitioning leaders and executives prepare for their next opportunity — but we do not act as recruiters or employment agencies. Our services focus on:

• Executive Resume development
• LinkedIn profile optimization 
• Interview coaching and positioning strategy

That said, our founders jointly bring 30+ years of executive search experience, and we understand what hiring managers, boards, and recruiters are looking for — which is why our clients are often better positioned to attract and convert opportunities on their own.

We specialize in supporting emerging C-suite candidates (VPs, GMs, senior Directors), executives in transition, and long-tenured professionals who are repositioning or pivoting careers. We also support internationally trained executives and professionals seeking first-time board roles 

Ready to Rise is based in Ontario, Canada — but we work with clients across Canada and internationally through virtual sessions. Whether you’re in Toronto, Calgary, Vancouver, or relocating from abroad, we can support you remotely via Teams, phone, and email.

We offer transparent, fixed-fee packages based on the level of support you need:

• Bronze:      Executive Resume Writing
• Silver:      Resume + LinkedIn Optimization
• Gold:      Resume + LinkedIn + Interview Coaching

Our packages range from $995 to $1,995+, depending on complexity and scope. Learn more on our Services Page.

Our executive resume writing includes a 1:1 consult with a senior strategist, a custom-built executive resume (PDF + ATS-optimized Word version), and one round of revisions. We focus on strategic positioning, leadership achievements, and business impact — not just listing responsibilities.

We completely rewrite your LinkedIn profile — not just your summary, but your headline, experience, accomplishments, and skills. We also provide keyword optimization for search visibility, tips on activity and engagement, and guidance on how to build your personal brand on LinkedIn as a senior leader.

 Our interview coaching is tailored to executive-level conversations. We conduct a mock interview based on your target roles, followed by targeted feedback on your content, presence, and delivery. You’ll leave with clear messaging, enhanced confidence, and a summary of actionable feedback. We'll also share a bank of executive level behaviour based questions with you.

Most projects are completed within 5 to 10 business days, depending on the package and your schedule. Resume-only packages are typically turned around within 3–7 business days after your intake session. Rush options may be available — just ask 

Yes! We offer add-on services such as board bios, executive cover letters, networking messages, and value proposition statements. These can be purchased alongside your resume package or added later.

Absolutely. We’ve supported many internationally trained executives in repositioning their global experience for Canadian employers. We’ll help you translate your achievements, align with local norms, and position you competitively for roles here.. 

You’ll work directly with a senior experienced consultant — not a junior freelancer. Our founders provide and oversee the services, and jointly have over 30 years of experience in executive recruitment. We understand what boards, CEOs, and hiring managers are looking for.

 While Ready to Rise is designed for individuals, we do offer executive outplacement, leadership transition packages, and executive assessment  through our parent company, Tipping Point Human Resource Services Inc. Reach out to us at info@tp-hr.com to discuss custom programs for senior teams, boards, or transitioning leaders.

Yes. Our interview coaching includes targeted prep for high-stakes conversations — whether that’s with a search firm, an investor group, or a board of directors. We’ll help you refine your messaging, answer tough questions with impact, and bring your executive presence into the room.

 We know timing can be critical. Rush services may be available depending on our schedule. If you have a deadline — like an upcoming interview or recruiter submission — let us know and we’ll do our best to prioritize your project.
