Our Founder
Lori Norris founded Get Results Career Services in 2004. She began her career educating job seekers in all aspects of the job search. However, she saw an opportunity to assist job seekers when she noticed how much most people – regardless of their level or career specialty – struggled to write their own resume. Since launching her business, she has helped thousands of customers create compelling resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles and job search strategies that help them get the results they desire. We can’t promise you a job, but we can certainly get your phone ringing for interviews!
Prior to entering the career services industry, Lori spent 8 years as a corporate hiring manager with a major retail corporation. This background in screening resumes and interviewing candidates gives her an understanding of the other side of the hiring process.
Her knowledge of hiring practices ensures that your resume will be prepared with consideration to the needs and wants of the hiring manager. Today’s job search almost always requires that you make it through an Applicant Tracking System (ATS). Our team keeps current knowledge of the job search industry standards and requirements.
Lori is a Certified Professional Resume Writer (CPRW) and certified Job and Career Transition Coach (JCTC). Most importantly, she is committed to continuing education and training. In addition, Lori maintains relationships with recruiters and human resources managers of major corporations to keep up-to-date on what prompts these decision makers to call candidates for interviews.
In 2005, Lori began volunteering at Luke Air Force Base, where she facilitated portions of the Transition Assistance Program. From 2013 to 2016 she taught the intensive 3-day Department of Labor portion of the program as a contractor. She has assisted thousands of military service members to transition successfully out of all branches of the military. Through this experience, she has gained her status as a “bilingual” military skills translator by helping market their transferable skills into private sector and federal government employment. In 2017, she launched the Veteran Transition Network, a resource and education portal to continue her focus as a veteran employment advocate.
Lori has been featured in articles in the Arizona Republic, East Valley Tribune, Luke Air Force Base Thunderbolt and the Job Examiner. As a member of the Professional Associate of Resume Writers, Career Directors International, the Resume Writers Council of Arizona and the National Resume Writers Association, Lori continually develops her skills as a resume writer. In addition, Lori has previously served as the Secretary and Treasurer of the Resume Writers Council of Arizona. Lori is a former Regional Representative of the National Resume Writers Association as well.
As a trainer who has taught job-seeking skills since 2002, Lori’s workshops are informative and motivational. The information contained in the workshops taught by Lori assist the job seeker in navigating the job search process to obtain positive results much more quickly. Job seekers who attend the workshops taught by Lori leave feeling positive, confident, and prepared for a successful search.
