Wendi Weiner

Attorney, Career and Personal Branding Expert, The Writing Guru

They say life changes dramatically once you run a marathon. To increase her chances of life change, Wendi Weiner ran two marathons (NYC and Chicago) and they allowed her to revel in living life fearlessly and chasing her dreams at all risks. Wendi is an attorney-turned-entrepreneur who is creatively known as The Writing Guru. She runs an executive resume and career services company under that same trademarked name serving clients that include Fortune and S&P 500 general counsels, business leaders, and senior executives. On top of being a litigation attorney for 11+ years, and a college writing professor for 7+ years, Wendi is a 4X certified executive resume writer and career coach. She's truly the paradigm of what happens when you dream big and hustle even harder. Her credentials earned her membership as a Forbes Career Coach and she brings a trail of accolades, including global recognition as the #1 Resume Expert by Recruiter.com, Best Resume Services Firm and Executive Career Coach of the Year, Best Legal Resume Services, Recommended Executive Resume Writer by Heller Search, Top 25 Resume Site, and Top 100 Career Blog. Incorporating her legal mind with the highest certifications in the industry (she's the country's only Nationally Certified Resume Writer who is also an attorney) has allowed Wendi to serve as a top authority in resume writing, LinkedIn profiles, and job search strategies. Wendi has been featured in national radio broadcasts, resume help books, and more than 50 major media outlets. She's also a contributing writer for Thrive Global and a content writer for Inc. Magazine on an array of brand strategy projects. Wendi served as a board member for The National Resume Writers' Association for 3 years and as its President-Elect and Ethics Chair. When she's not writing, Wendi enjoys spending time with her family and friends, traveling with her husband, riding her Peloton bike, and spoiling Riley, her rescue shih tzu of 13 years.
