Certification: Certified Advanced Resume Writer (CARW)

1665 Clover Circle Melbourne, FL 32925

CDI'S expectation is that all candidates seeking CARW certification have previously studied and practiced the art of resume writing. The candidate's knowledge of the necessary competencies may come from the books the committee recommends as preparation tools, or actual paid or unpaid writing experience. While there is no hard and fast rule concerning the years of experience a writer should have before taking the exam, the CDI certification committee recommends that the certification candidate has at least one year of writing experience prior to taking the exam.
