LiveCareer’s editorial team comprises Certified Professional Resume Writers (CPRWs), career coaches, and editors who create CV guides, resume tips, and cover letter resources with easy-to-understand insights and the answers you need to find a rewarding career.
Research
Our team researches current industry trends to determine highly relevant topics for job seekers. LiveCareer uses credible online sources, such as government websites, industry reports, and academic publications, to deliver authoritative content.
Editing & QA
LiveCareer’s articles are carefully reviewed by one of our seasoned editors to deliver practical advice and help you secure the job you’re aiming for. We focus on clear, error-free but high-quality language and rigorously fact-check each piece of content.
Writing & AI
Our experienced authors and career advice experts create informative and engaging resume and cover letter articles, career guides, and tips to improve your job applications. You’ll find only human-generated content on LiveCareer, though we do use AI strategically when outlining and organizing ideas to speed up the content creation process. We then carefully evaluate all output to confirm its validity.
LiveCareer’s data science, content, and engineering teams also built a programmatic content tool to distribute current and practical career guidance. The tool uses structured prompts and proprietary skills data, examples from our AI Resume Builder, and salary data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) to generate information for thousands of job titles. From there, our content team reviews the details to ensure accuracy.
Regular updates
We are committed to keeping our content both fresh and accurate. Our team of writers and industry experts regularly reviews and updates published articles, ensuring that every piece reflects the latest trends, tools, and best practices in the job market.
