A Disruptive Resumé™️ is the What Charlie ReWrote proprietary resumé writing formula - developed by professional senior copywriter Charlie* of What Charlie WROTE -  and  currently rewriting the script on recruitment.

*Hey that’s me, Charlie, and I’ve been writing resumés and CVs since I was a student nearly 30 years ago and the go-to writer for anything my House 17 housemates needed written while we were studying at Salford University. 

As struggling students that was predominantly job applications, résumés and CVs, and as my housemates locked in their dream jobs at Wetherspoons, The Pav at Castle Irwell and the then Nynex Arena (IYKYK), news of my resumé writing success travelled further and further afield, until I found myself writing for their friends, and then their friends’ friends….

What is a Disruptive Resumé™️?

That’s how I got started, and today my Disruptive Resumés™️ are breaking the mould on CV and resumé writing as I’ve developed new style and fresh approach that’s “intelligently rooted in topical issues, pop culture, alternative takes and thought-provoking references”. 

Research clearly shows that recruiters spend just 6-7 seconds considering job applications before deciding whether or not to proceed with them. After that initial scan you get a less than 2 minute second sweep review where they confirm you’re suitable to proceed to a phone call or invitation to interview. 

This means your resumé has a tonne of heavy lifting to do - and a very small number of reps to do it in.

Enter the What Charlie ReWrote Disruptive Resumé™️ - where every single word is strategically positioned to get the reader’s attention - and keep it. 

I started with my own resumé first, and when I saw how well received it was and how many doors it opened I refined the formula and applied it to my clients’ resumés too. 

What Charlie ReWrote Resumés & CVs

Recruiters are time poor, overwhelmed by volume and largely underwhelmed by quality. 

You need to make an outstanding first impression to really stand out in these conditions and no resumé writing tip on the planet can genuinely help you vonsustentlg achieve this level of impact. 

If you’re serious about making the best possible first impression your resumé needs to be excellent - and just as with any other time you want excellent writing, this means you’re going to need a professional copywriter.

Professional Resumé Writing by What Charlie WROTE

My Disruptive Resumé™️formula is built on the premise that recruiters need to feel something when they read your resumé. They need to feel impressed, surprised, refreshed and intrigued by writing that profiles thought and elicits a smile within the first few seconds of reading. 

And as a senior copywriter with 28 years and counting in marketing, advertising & social media management that shit is my bread & butter 🧈 

My creative writing career has spanned almost every possible industry, from simplifying beef fertilisation to making print management sexy. At one point I was even travelling throughout NSW taking a vintage typewriter to pop up events and typing quirky poems on the spot for people who told me a bit about their lives. 

A really good writer is a listener, an observer, a people watcher and a researcher. 

Which is why my Disruptive Resumés™️ are landing the way they do. 

I’m rewriting not just resumés but how we approach recruitment in 2026 too, with an enigmatic blend of intelligence, wit, humour and trending topics that’s strategically positioned to spotlight soft skills and life experience just as much as professional expertise.

The result is a style of resumé that has recruiters calling up my clients to talk about how they could not stop reading, and literally could not go past their applications without calling out just how unique and eye catching their applications have been.

And that, folks, is how you get your dream job.
